Public bug reported:
Hello,
Let me explain my issue in detail, so that you all get a clear picture.
I have a laptop and it's running on ubuntu 11.10. Also i had partitioned
my hdd to different partitions, please note that all of my partitions
are ext4(one is ntfs). When I installed ubuntu I created a default user
named ms. After the install I created another user named abc. The
problem is this newly created user(abc) cannot access my internal
partitions except ntfs. Here are the various logs.

I mounted all those partitions under the user account abc, but see the
permissions except NTFS one(also leave the Songs partition)
Anyway to mount ext4 as same as ntfs? is it a bug or something?
Thanks
