Ntfs read/write on openSUSE with ntfs-3g!

Ntfs-3g has reached 1.0 and this means that you can now safely write on your Windows ntfs partitions!

To install ntfs-3g for openSUSE, you need to add this repository as source to Yast. Just install ntfs-3g and fuse from the repo.

Also change the type from ntfs to ntfs-3g in your /etc/fstab file for the ntfs partitions. Remember to remove the 'ro' (read only) option from the fstab entries for the ntfs partitions. Reboot and your ntfs partitions will now be writable!
