I have seen this option (I just type Ctrl+T).
I would like to see that for example when I insert my USB-stick in the computer and then click "open in new window", that it is opened in a new Tab in konqueror if konqueror is already open. And if I click the icon "Home" that it is also opened in a new tab, etc.

Ben, I think you actually are right about the kernel causing the ntfs-access problems. After a restart Pardus was upgraded to a newer kernel. And the access to my WIndows partitions was gone... I opened the file /boot/grub/menu.lst, and I saw that still the old kernel was started up instead of the newest. So I changed that, and after the next restart I could access my Windows partitions again  

@Bahri16
that is a good idea, to make my data partition fat32 instead of ntfs. I only don't know how to do it safely: The folder "My Documents" in Windows points to this partition. Maybe when I start Pardus, copy the content of my data-partition somewhere else, reformat it to fat32 and place the content back Windows doesn't cause troubles because of the changed disk - but I'm not sure...

And yes, I need Windows and always will need it in the future. I develop sofware, currently for Windows but I want to go cross-platform. So at least I need Windows to compile and test my programs for Windows. I hope however that Pardus can become my main Operating System.

@Ben
I tried also "chroot /media/sda5" but the same error. I have now re-installed Pardus and everything is working fine.

The idea to use www.fs-driver.org to access my ext3 partition is also a very nice idea. I didn't knew such a program existed. When Pardus has become my main OS, this may be the best solution!

I don't think it is the new kernel causing it, because last weeks pardus 2007 automatically upgraded to a newer kernel (I could see that from an added line in Grub), and still everything worked fine.

thanks for all your ideas and help guys!

Ben, using the Live CD was a very good idea! I had read/write access to both installed pardus partition and my windows partitions, so I have directly made a backup from my pardus home directory

I tried chroot /dev/sda5 but got an error message that sda5 does not exist (though it absolutely did exist)

I think the easiest way is just to reinstall pardus tomorrow. That will take an hour or so, but I'm rather experienced with installing pardus - last few weeks I did it about 8 times on two different computers... Bit by bit I get a little tired of coming across so many bugs, but luckily I know better and better what I must do NOT to prevent nasty situations
I hope the developers will manage to fix the important bugs soon - without that Pardus is the best Linux Distro I have seen.

both fuse and ntfs_3g where already installed. I deinstalled and installed them again. Which was a bad idea. Pardus is completely messed up now and I can't startup pardus any longer  

I guess I have to do a fresh install of Pardus...

ai, same problem:
"FATAL: Module fuse not found."

I have opened the terminal, and entered "su -" and after that the root password. Then I entered "modprobe fuse". Am I not doing something stupid wrong?

hm. I tried both commands, but no success:

when I enter "lsmod | grep fuse" nothing happens
when I enter "modprobe lsmod" I get the message "FATAL: Module lsmod not found."

Thanks ben,
I have adjusted the settings just as you mentioned. Now it is at least working fine for browsing! (though still not for the explorer)

That seems to be the solution, however I don't know what I have to change in the file /etc/fstab. I have opened the Konsole and entered sudo kwrite, and then the root password. In kWrite I have opened the file /etc/fstab. It looks like this:


sda1 is a small Windows recovery partition. I have read/write acces to this.
sda2 and sda3 are my Windows partition and my Data partition, I have no read/write access to them

What do I have to change in this file?

Argh! Since I upgraded to Pardus 2007.1 this afternoon I can't access my Windows harddisks anymore! when I try I get an error "Permissions denied"...

What to do now?

Is there an "Allow only one instance" option in Konqueror? Such that new instances are loaded as a new tab in an already opened instance of Konqueror.

I would rather like to have only one instance with multiple tabs, instead of multiple instances of Konqueror opened. (Just like tabbed browsing is so much prettier...)

With other linux distributions I have had problems with the screen resolution: this was by default set to a value that my screen could not apply so I got a black screen and could not do anything.
 
Maybe it is something like that? That Pardus is not able to choose a proper screen resolution for your screen?

Thanks! just what I was looking for.
