Hmm yea. I guess I already had typed my root password in somewhere when
I used gnome-mount. Because gnome-mount didn't ask me for any password
when I tried mounting my NTFS partitions.
Guess that's solved then. Thanks ;)
For the ones that don't want to fiddle around in /etc/fstab, a tool
called "ntfs-config" does that for you.
