Does anyone know of a Linux programme that can not just read but also write,alter and even delete files that are on the XP NTFS drive.
There is no problem reading any data but as I am increasingly using Linux (Suse10.1 at the moment) but a lot of my data is on Windows it would be helpful to be able to not just access but alter as well

There's a fairly recent project called Linux NTFS which is available at http://www.linux-ntfs.org - it allows you to read and write to NTFS partitions. I've not given it much time myself, but from what I've heard, it seems quite good.
Have fun!

There are quite a few approaches to get it: - use FAT32 filesystem form (domicile windows XP & Linux can see FAT32 partitions by potential of default) - use NTFS (present day Linux additionally can see NTFS partitions, although that is achievable that some Linux tuning would desire to be accomplished previously - get and deploy some NTFS filesystem drivers) - use EXT2 (some plugins/utility to domicile windows available that permit to artwork with EXT2 partitions) I recommend to objective NTFS, my Ubuntu (Edgy) can works with NTFS by potential of default. i think FC6 can do it to.

There is an NTFS toolchain in the package setup; at least there is such in my Ubuntu (accessing public software repositories).
