Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Could you please update Jaunty to include ntfs-3g 1:2009.2.1-0ubuntu1, and test if the problem still occurs? I have removed the sensitive data from the stacktrace. Thanks in advance.

NTFS-3G 2009.2.1 did fix a crash in ntfs_attr_lookup if a file or directory (this is the case here) was highly fragmented and there was an NTFS corruption or hardware problem: http://ntfs-3g.org/releases.html

The crash happens exactly at the same place which was fixed in NTFS-3G 2009.2.1.

However the stack trace doesn't look correct. There are some problems with it. Like apparently using debug symbols from the NTFS-3G 2009.2.1 release and manual edition of vital parameters to corrupt values which should never happen.
