(TIP) Disadvantages Of FUSE

[Tommylee567]

Guys,
A recent discovery. Before that, can anyone direct me what is File UserSpace system?

According to this topic i created some months ago,
http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,66526.0.html  (now modified)
I had this problem of not unmounting the drives automatically when shutting down.
And i found out is was the service of fuse. Disabled it and it is working again.

Anybody facing this problem?

As far as I know ntfs-3g uses fuse to interact with the kernel. So if you have an ntfs partition and if you want to be able to write to it you have to use fuse.

I do have a ntfs partition, and disabled fuse and it still access it perfectly. I too was thinking like you did before i disabled

Interesting. Do you mean that your ntfs partition is actually writable and not just accessible?

I tried 3-4 times. deleting files, reading, writing text, all works. I'm not joking.

Thanks!

Maybe this helps?
According to the NTFS-3G release history, Version 1.2121-RC (January 21, 2008):

New: Built-in FUSE support by using a stripped down, integrated FUSE library. Linux uses this by default which means NTFS-3G doesn’t require the installation of the FUSE package, only FUSE kernel support.

One lives to learn.

A good discovery, Tommylee. And thanks for the explanation, pinoc.
