OK this is a weird one. First of all, I'm using FreeBSD 7.2 STABLE with the GENERIC kernel and KDE 3.5 (can't stand 4, ugh!). I have one of those external IDE hard drive conversion kits. Now, if I mount the partitions manually from the shell, I get the desired results (two of the partitions are NTFS, one is FAT32). I had them mounted this way before I did any changes. Since the default NTFS driver is read only, I installed fusefs_ntfs and followed the directions for making sure /etc/fstab is able to mount things properly (mv the original binary, and do a symbolic link to fusefs' NTFS driver). So, I make the recommended changes to /etc/fstab. When I save the file, I get a message popping up in Konqueror saying "Feature only available with HAL". Now, these partitions could be accessed just fine when I manually mounted them, so what could be the problem?
Here is my current /etc/fstab for reference. Note that I have commented out the last two lines and am just testing the last uncommented one. It matters not which of these I uncomment, the result is the same, even for the FAT32 partition.
