-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2007-2436 2007-10-08 15:01:27.717225 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : ntfs-3g Product : Fedora 7 Version : 1.1004 Release : 1.fc7 URL : http://www.ntfs-3g.org/ Summary : Linux NTFS userspace driver Description : The ntfs-3g driver is an open source, GPL licensed, third generation Linux NTFS driver. It provides full read-write access to NTFS, excluding access to encrypted files, writing compressed files, changing file ownership, access right. Technically it’s based on and a major improvement to the third generation Linux NTFS driver, ntfsmount. The improvements include functionality, quality and performance enhancements. ntfs-3g features are being merged to ntfsmount. In the meanwhile, ntfs-3g is currently the only free, as in either speech or beer, NTFS driver for Linux that supports unlimited file creation and deletion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * fix: unwritten sparse file regions could get corrupted if the end of a write wasn't aligned to cluster boundary. Sparse files are very rarely used, most typically by bittorent clients. * fix: creation of read-only files failed. * change: free indode calculation was CPU intensive during write activity. This could reduce write performance when using millions of files if a file manager or desktop applet regularly polled for disk space usage. Now the statfs() system call is constant time. * change: file creation performance is improved by 40-80%. * change: smart directory traversal is 20-200% faster for disk based and 300-600% faster for memory cache based traversals. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sat Oct 6 2007 Tom "spot" Callaway <tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx> 2:1.1004-1 - bump to 1.1004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated packages: 60a38a4b74517d1a8defc43772f401c9cda70ee7 ntfs-3g-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc64.rpm 5fe341c74e0708badd0eb31387f5559c05e777d0 ntfs-3g-debuginfo-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc64.rpm 51a25164284d53837cf7bea28bf5d6c2b716fde8 ntfs-3g-devel-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc64.rpm 00a6888753c8de3953d2c79affc70589c5ba429c ntfs-3g-1.1004-1.fc7.i386.rpm 3d19809d62cf61aa3a485c47a1f8a97cc7a27878 ntfs-3g-devel-1.1004-1.fc7.i386.rpm 352d2ac43ae690ee8eb1876df057c17d2583135f ntfs-3g-debuginfo-1.1004-1.fc7.i386.rpm f7d873a325b0938c1c2a674dc2d32261a883b7a1 ntfs-3g-1.1004-1.fc7.x86_64.rpm 0a655e30a1d4d5cfdfe5c6d0a443126384f0ef55 ntfs-3g-debuginfo-1.1004-1.fc7.x86_64.rpm c412c9c7541bbe6393f7a4c35005b9c92f48338f ntfs-3g-devel-1.1004-1.fc7.x86_64.rpm 7a872882b31ad15f89f35ad16c53c39a4a023925 ntfs-3g-devel-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc.rpm 08cbeae735285ff83da625e9bbeac72184be21ec ntfs-3g-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc.rpm 2ec09c23d77dd2e6bafcaf5c95b742ada0a98668 ntfs-3g-debuginfo-1.1004-1.fc7.ppc.rpm 1d0a70dcd078d9a532a8522fe98806fe6171f9ae ntfs-3g-1.1004-1.fc7.src.rpm This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
