I do - but from Whitebox. Other disties might differ in the support you
can get.

The think I find is that you have to be forceful sometimes; the NTFS
driver will initially refuse to mount an NTFS filesystem that is marked as
"dirty". So if you're trying to salvage a broken disk, or even pick stuff
off a removable drive that the owner always pulls without unmounting
cleanly, you'll want the "force" option.

Having said that, NTFS works perfectly.
