    [SOLVED] NTFS Configuration Tool won't work

    I've installed and reinstalled the Tool several times and it doesn't do anything.
    I get the prompt to input my passoword, which I know I put in correctly. It then just disappears.
    If I try running the tool again, I see a window pop up at the bottom of my screen for a half a second then disappear.

    I'm running Maverick with Win7 dual-booting, and trying to use the tool to auto-mount several partitions

    Hi! Welcome

    If would double boot maverick and windows 7. I don't need to install any tool to access my windows partition since I can mount it by going to Places > Windows 7 and it would prompt me and ask for my password.

    Can you please post the output of

    Code:
    sudo fdisk -l
    -l is a small L

    Code:
    df -h
    Code:
    dmesg | tail
    please?

    EDIT

    Nevermind, I found out that I didn't have a policy file.

    So for future users who get this problem, run
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install hal
    And re-install the NTFS Configuration Tool and that'll do it!
