Udisks doesn't recognise NTFS disks

Primoz · 2011-04-12 14:27:31

After updating udisks my NTFS USB and external disk wasn't recognised. I got an error: the filesystem isn't in /etc/filesystems or /proc/filesystems.
I've reverted back to non-testing version my USB and external disk were recognised again.

Dolphin. I didn't test on others.

Thanks! I'll try the work around. But as I see it, there are some fixes upstream (in udisk, not KDE) that shoud fix this.

some fix in udisk broke the mounting. i'm not sure where the problem is

It might be a KDE problem. I'm not shure.
This workaround (that was posted on Arch Flyspray) fixed the problem:

# cp /proc/filesystems /etc
# vi /etc/filesystems

Then you just add:
vfat and ntfs, without noproc in front

If anyone else is interested.
