I was however able to mount one of my ntfs data parititions using
mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/d
but couldn't play my MP3's on it cause i'm not logged in as root. (curious if anyone knows how to get around that, su sudo only works within the shell window)


mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/d -o uid=1001

That will give permission for the non-root user damnsmall uid=1001 to access the files. Then your xmms should be able to read and therefore play your MP3s.

I see references to the Slit, recognizing partitions, etc.
I don't see the Slit anywhere, I need a short howto on it.
I'm using the default fluxbox.

The Slit as such, is invisible. It's just a "docking place"  for various apps -" windowmaker" apps will also go "in the slit". It's kind of like an invisible "system tray" (in terms of *That Other OS* *cough*), but not tiny... so the "enhance" function puts the mount app in it, but if you wanted to you could add others and they would kind of stack up in line.
Gkrellm is an example of a more complex monitoring and mounting app that can be put in the slit.
