First of all, don't post in HTML.

If you have the livna repository enabled (you really should!), the
simplest thing is

yum install kernel-module-ntfs


To enable the livna repository, in /etc/yum.repos.d create a file called
livna.repo containing the following:

[livna]
name=Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages
baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.lvn
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
