Comment 54 for bug 392204

Same behaviour in Lucid updated to may 2011. VMplayer runs painfully slow, and freezes. Same mount.ntfs-3g process consuming a whole core.

Seems we all will have to surrender to this fact? I just don't get why after almost 2 years there isn't yet an official solution to the problem. No wrapper for ntfs partitions?

I'll try the following version (taken from a previous post), but it doesn't say if it solved anyhow the problem:

Unofficial Ubuntu packages for 2010.8.8 can be found at:

Alexander then proposes another solution.

Any feedback on tried alternatives will be welcome.

Regards.
