Fatal:Module fuse not found

HI
I installed a new Os and trying to access ntfs pertition from another hardrive.

but kernel is not supported by ntfs
so i have installed these
yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g dkms dkms-fuse  , but when i am tryign to access ntfs

mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdc2 /windows

its saying : Fatal : Module fuse not found
so i did modprobe fuse
-> module fuse not found

then i have tryed another way

It looks like you don't have fuse module available.
Check if you have /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.so
If you don't have it, you have to install it. Source code is available at http://fuse.sourceforge.net/
Simple google searching gave me RPMs with fuse, you may want to check it also: http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/fuse/
fuse.ko, not fuse.so :)

Hi
i have installed fuse in different way

by yum by using tar with kernel module on
/configure --enable-kernel-module
here is out put
[root@localhost ~]# locate fuse.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko
And what about modprobe fuse? Does it work? Do you have that module in lsmod output?
[root@localhost ~]# modprobe fuse
FATAL: Module fuse not found.

fuse is not included in lsmod output

have a look

[root@localhost ~]# lsmod | grep fuse
[root@localhost ~]# lsmod

Tell me which flavour of Linux and kernel version do you use.

Keep this in mind
Please ask your distribution developers to fix the Linux kernel problem. The Linux kernel must be upgraded either to at least version 2.6.20, or the FUSE kernel driver must be upgraded to a safe version which is also included in the FUSE package for Linux kernel version 2.6.9 and later.

Download the fuse source package according to your kernel.

If your kernel is 2.6.18 , then download 2.6.1 fuse package.tar.
And install fuse like this

> ./configure
>  make
>  make install

Now reboot your system and try to mount ntfs.

run depmod -a, then try to modprobe fuse
