NTFS-3G 1.2310 (Default branch)
NTFS-3G is a stable read/write NTFS driver. It isavailable for over 130 Linux distributions, including most major ones. Moreover, it has been ported to other operating systems like FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenSolaris, Haiku, and Mac OS X, and to big-endian and 64-bit computer architectures.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
This release fixes 'dev' and 'suid' mount option handling, failing unprivileged mounts, minor inconsistencies reported by Windows CHKDSK, and a driver crash when one tried to open a non-existent file that had a name at least twice as long as the one allowed by the NTFS specification. rmdir(2) returns the more common ENOTEMPTY instead of EEXIST, which solves the Nautilus recursive directory removal errors, and uses the 'dev' and 'suid' mount options as the default for root mounts, similar to other file systems.Image
