Summary: Default automount options for vfat devices breaks
non-english filenames
Classification: openSUSE
Product: openSUSE 11.2
Version: Final
Platform: i586
OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Hotplug
AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: raffo@xxxxxxx
QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
Found By: ---
Blocker: ---
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5)
Gecko/20091103 SUSE/3.5.5-1.1.2 Firefox/3.5.5
On my KDE desktop, when I plug a USB memory stick or an Android phone, the
files with accented characters in their name do not show correctly.
For example, take one of my files "Y Tú Qué Has Hecho.mp3", when the device is
automounted, the mount options:
rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=520,utf8,shortname=mixed,flush
The file lists as: Y Tú Qué Has Hecho.mp3
After a lot of google searches and trial and errors I found that the mount
options rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,flush,uid=520,codepage=437,shortname=mixed
resulted in the correct characters displayed.
I have been unable to find how to change the mount options to the ones that
work for me, all my google searches didn't produce anything useful.
In addition, my locale is en_US. The same problem occurs in 11.1 with KDE4.
I do not understand how character encoding works in the filesystems in my
desktop computer. I only know that I can set filenames with accented characters
and they display fine. When I try to copy these files to removable devices, it
fails when accented characters are present. It also causes problems if one
wants to keep the files in the disk and the device synchronized with rsync.
Reproducible: Always
