Yes, but that means I've got to figure out howto mount that ntfs
partition. I've downloaded an ntfs kernel-module, but ndi where to put
it so that it would be loaded automaticly and used for the mounting. It
has a name about 100 yards long too.
kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5-2.1.26-0.rr.10.5.i686.ko
ATM its sitting in ~/Desktop where FF put it (thats a PITA, why doesn't
it open a 'where do I put it requestor'?) and modprobe can't find it
useing the
"modprobe ./kernel-module-ntfs-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5-2.1.26-0.rr.10.5.i686.ko"
syntax, from a terminal cd'd to ~/Desktop, which has worked before I
believe, but haven't tried lately enough to be sure.
So where in the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel tree should I put this
ntfs driver?

People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)
