I believe I may already have FUSE installed. I followed the instructions here http://www.ubuntux.org/fuse-sshfs and the packages were already installed and I was already a member of 'fuse'.

fuse-sshfs doesn't sound right, that is for mounting a filesystem over SSH using FUSE. Does that readerfs tools have a homepage somewhere? It sounds like you need a specific FUSE module.

You know, this thread might have something to do with that

To be exact, it describes (and one or two articles have it attached) such a FUSE module. This is what I have been trying to use (unsuccessfully).
There is no such website, however one would be welcomed at this point.

In such a case, I would search my entire software package repository for any modules pertaining to 'fuse' - which is what I tried to say earlier. Like I said, I am on fedora core so my "yum search fuse" would be meaningless as I think Ubuntu uses apt but I'm sure there is a graphical software package manager with a search function in there somewhere.

To reiterate, this

Quote:

./readerfs: error while loading shared libraries: libfuse.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

lines states that whatever you have done to get fuse installed, it has failed. As far as your system is concerned, fuse is not installed. I don't know what you did to install it, I don't know how knowledgeable you are about linux in general, and I am not experienced on Ubuntu so my advise is restricted to general descriptions.

Try to search the Ubuntu repositories using synaptic or aptitude. On a recent Ubuntu it should find the packages "fuse-utils" and "libfuse2".
