    What is a fuseblk file system?

    Whenever I mount my NTFS-formatted hard drive in Linux, it always mounts successfully with the file system "fuseblk".
    Even if I try to manually mount at the command-line with "-t ntfs" it still reports the system as being "fuseblk".

    What is this file system? Is it something akin to ntfs?
