Hi,
Anton wrote earlier, there were some reports that the new driver hung
with kernel 2.4 but it's unreproducible. Apparently it is reproducible
with the latest Mandrake beta.
Someone (maintainer?) maybe could also send them a patch to take out
that compressed file related 'Please notify linux-ntfs-dev@...'
frequently reported message ... not because of there would be a
terrific traffic on this list.

This still fails on a cooker built at Feb 9 18:30 GMT with a refresh a
few minutes before.

Please see bug 835. The trigger for this problem is that some Win2000
systems have the fonts actually in the winnt/fonts directory, and
others have most of the .TTF fonts in the winnt/system32 directory
with "shortcuts" in the winnt/fonts directory by the same names.
I have two systems (desktop, laptop). The desktop has the shortcuts,
while the laptop has the real fonts in winnt/fonts. This hangs on the
desktop, but not on the laptop. Unfortunately, I have no record of
how each system got to the state it's currently in, but if you know
where to look on a Win2000 system for this info, I'll be happy to do
it.
The problem appears to be that the NTFS driver does not handle
shortcuts very well (maybe the FAT32 driver doesn't either).

I tried to get the windows fonts and drakfont got frozen, but it also
made the whole ntfs partition unaccessible, I was not able even
remount it and all programs trying to access the partition froze (for
example ls). I tried it on two system, and I got the same results. My
system is:
Duron 650 on Via KT,
the disk is partitioned <ntfs with Win 2000> <ext. <ntfs> <vfat> <xfs> <swap> >
