I can confirm this in KDE 4.8.0.

If this NTFS issue first appeared in KDE 4.7.4, it might be a duplicate of bug 288824. This is a regression caused by the following commit in kdelibs, which is a fix for bug 178678:

I have commented out the line «case FUSE_SUPER_MAGIC:» in kdecore/io/kfilesystemtype_p.cpp and the problem is solved for me. Maybe somebody will find this useful. But I know almost nothing about how file systems are mounted in Linux, so I'm not sure that this doesn't produce another bug in another place which I haven't noticed.

Maybe a silly question: what if KDE would _always_ detect folders inside /media (or other folder with auto-mounted filesystems in other distros) as Fast? Does anybody really use /media for mounting network folders?

Resetting assignee to default as per bug #305719

Comment 7 Heitor da Silva 2012-09-01 20:05:34 UTC

As well said by Frank Reininghaus, I would consider this a duplicate of bug 288824.
