Hey guys, today I installed OpenSUSE 11 on my PC. It truly is a beautiful OS. Now, i'm facing a prob. All my partitions are mounted but I'm unable to write on them including FAT32 ones, forget NTFS. This never happened before in OpenSUSE 10.3. I know the ntfs-3g command, but can you tell me what's wrong with the FAT32 ones?? I can create a folder there, but can't copy contents from a optical disk..
Help me out..

hey I rectified the problem
I change the permissions of the drives by using "chmod 777" command and then I could do all the usual stuff. Actually in the old version (10.3) there wasn't anything like this so I got confused. Thanx for your help though..
