Kris Moore built this script, and I added the necessary hal hooks.  I
tested it on his system as I don't have a any NTFS volumes.  The script
creates a map file in /tmp which maps kernel mounts to fuse mounts.  If
this is not happening, then that would explain why you're unable to
mount the volumes.

You should also make sure you've adjusted the GConf key for using
ntfs-3g instead of ntfs within GNOME.  Beyond that, hopefully someone
who is successfully using hal and fuse can help you.
