Hi Keith:
As I understand things, it is, in fact, possible to see a listing of the
files on an unmounted drive - it just isn't possible to open them.
What is *supposed* to happen is that Writer will automatically mount the
drive when you elect to open a file on that drive (assuming the drive is
and the machien has settled

version 3.5.
When I attempted to open a ntfs file the file manager in Ubuntu automount
the partition without any problem. The file also loaded. Now to compare
apples to apples I am going to force upgrade my version to the
