gparted hangs when encountered error in ntfsresize
Gparted was showing red exclamation mark to my one of the ntfs partition , so I tried running check the disk using gparted menu but It told that it has encountered an error and need to report the error. So, I tried to save the details and it all hang. I had to kill all the gparted process tree using the terminal.
