Hi,


The fuse kernel module is part of the kernel, and as such it is included with neither ntfs-3g nor the fuse library.
First check whether your kernel was compiled with a provision for a fuse kernel module. Do

You should get

If so, you have to install the fuse kernel module matching your exact kernel version. This is probably available from where you got your kernel from, and with some luck this is the one you need :
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.pramberg ... p.i686.rpm
If this is not ok, you have to recompile it, for example from
fuse-kmod-2.7.4-1.2.6.18_128.1.6.el5.pp.src.rpm
You will have to install the kernel headers for your exact kernel version, and use a compiler compatible with the one used to compile the kernel.
