I would like to suggest not closing this bug, as I recently ran in to a damaged ntfs partition that I was unable to mount using ntfs-3g, but a friend *was* able to mount using the kernel driver. At the very least, when ntfs-3g is installed it should make a mount.ntfskernel or something so that people troubleshooting have the option of using the kernel ntfs driver.
Even if the reason why my friend was able to mount the drive was not due to differences in ntfs-3g vs kernel ntfs, we should still leave the option on the table. I have nothing against ntfs-3g as the default in ubuntu, but it seems like the kernel ntfs driver should still be accessible for troubleshooting/recovery cases where ntfs-3g might not work.
