[FIXED] GPT NTFS mounting issue

FIXED by rebooting, I guess some systemctl command to start might have worked too

My secondary disk fails when I try to mount it. I wonder if something else I need
to do to enable FUSE? This is a new arch linux installation.

# mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/disk2
fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first

# ntfs-3g /dev/sdb2 /mnt/disk2
fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first

Details:

# modprobe fuse
# echo $?
1

# uname -a
Linux game-station 3.12.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 29 21:14:15 CET 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# gdisk -l /dev/sdb

GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.8

Partition table scan:
  MBR: protective
  BSD: not present
  APM: not present
  GPT: present

Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.
Disk /dev/sdb: 5860533168 sectors, 2.7 TiB
Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 93456934-72D6-4EAB-809B-5715DD300554
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 5860533134
Partitions will be aligned on 8-sector boundaries
Total free space is 2925 sectors (1.4 MiB)

Number  Start (sector)    End (sector)  Size       Code  Name

NTFS-3G is installed:

# pacman -Ss ntfs-3g

Disk is definitely readable:

 hdparm -t --direct /dev/sdb

/dev/sdb:
