Comment 53 for bug 101845

I realize this thread/report is a little old but it's closest thing I can find to a resolution of this issue. I am experiencing this exact problem of a new mount folder being generated with an underscore(_) appended for my external USB NTFS drive. I think it happens after unplanned power cycles. My machine is headless and the power in my area is flaky. I have a UPS but that doesn't help. I recently installed Xubuntu 9.04 but the problem did not go away it was present with the previous release.
The Launnchpad documentation seems to indicate that this is fixed but it's unclear what that fix is and how I should get it. Any assistance or re-direction gratefully recieved.
