I have not installed the most recent kernel for FC2, so possibly it

No, the Fedora kernels never supported NTFS (not by any FC 1 or FC 2
kernel). The fact that the Linux kernel source does contain the code for
building an NTFS module does not imply it is supported by Fedora
kernels.
kernel builds done by the FC team have it turned off, but the driver
is
there. All you have to do is build a new kernel after setting the proper
option. If you use 'make menuconfig', you will find it under File
systems --> DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems --> NTFS file system support. If you
set that to 'Y' or 'M', then you will see two additional options.
The correct way is described by Arjan ("the Fedora kernel guy") in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129377#c3
Rebuilding the whole kernel or at least running through a whole rebuild
of all modules is a waste of time.
