I have Kubuntu 12.04.01 installed on partition /dev/sdb2 of my dual boot Computer. /sda1 carries Windows XP, XP Program files and some data files. /sda2 and /sdb1 carry more data, music and pictures, mostly going back to the bad old Windows-only days.
I cannot (and don't want to) access /sdb2 from XP but can access all files from Kubuntu and do most things I want. Occasionally, working in Linux, I can't do what I think I should be possible on files or directories in /sda2 and /sdb1. The restrictions happen whether I created the file in XP or Linux, though they don't apply if I use a directory in /sdb2. I suspect that my permissions are not as they should be.
One such restriction is that, in Dolphin, if I right-click a file and enter Properties>Permissions, any change is successful only for files in /sdb2
My etc/fstab file (expanded for me by someone with much greater experience of Linux) is as follows:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

Is there something which should be altered here, or is there another file elsewhere?
