NTFS drive mount problem and KDE log out hangs
by Tsuga from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6J0RB)
Logged out of one of the users on my system to log in to a different user. When I log out of the first user, KDE hangs, same as what happened here.
I have an additional problem now too. When I get logged in again, as either user, I cannot open an NTFS drive that is on a separate partition on the same hard drive. Here is fstab:
Code:UUID=08daf54d-7258-4d04-9717-41351df31d89 / ext4 defaults 1 1
UUID=5619-07C1 /boot/efi vfat defaults 1 0
UUID=AA3820C238208EFf /ntfsc ntfs3 fmask=133,dmask=022 1 0
UUID=82CC1BFECC1BEAE5 /ntfsd ntfs3 fmask=111,dmask=000 1 0"ntfsd" is the drive I'm concerned with. It's /dev/sda6 on the computer.
If I use Dolphin (my default) for moving through the directory there is this error message:
Quote:
If I just
Code:ls /ntfsdthere is no result.
Something I found said to
unmount the drive (umount said it wasn't mounted)
&
use fsck on the drive (there is no fsck.ntfs on my Slackware. I read fsck has to match the filesystem type.)
So I couldn't use that solution.
I tried rebooting Slackware. That doesn't fix the problem with the NTFS drive. It still can't be reached.
I found something that said to log into Windows partition and use chkdsk. That seemed to work. But as soon as I logged out of the user to log in again, on the next login, the NTFS problem was back.
I'm not 100% sure these are related, but these problems both started happening at the same time and the NTFS problem comes up after logging out and back in.
