ntfs-config will not run

[Ohad]

Binary package hint: ntfs-config

I get the following output from the terminal (after running with "gksudo"):

Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ntfs-config", line 102, in <module>

    os.mkdir(HAL_CONFIG_DIR)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/hal/fdi/policy'

I use ubuntu 10.10 64-bit with ntfs-config installed from the software center (1.0.1-3ubuntu5).
