https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242074 Summary: Chinese word can not be distinguished on USB disk Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Hotplug AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: weizhong.gao@uaes.com QAContact: qa@suse.de I use gnome of open suse 10.2, the Chinese word file names can not be distinguished on USB disk, I can only see ??? of the filename. After I right cleck the USB icon on desktop and changed the option with "iocharset=utf8" and remount the USB disk, the Chinese word can be distinguished. But after I unplug the USB disk and plug on again, the USB disk icon not appeared any more. How can I do then? (I can mount the USB disk in terminal using mount -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8 /dev/sdb1 /tmp, but it appeared very slow to do anything after that,use "ls" I can find hundreds of empty directory named root-orbit-???) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242074 ------- Comment #6 from mfabian@novell.com 2007-02-14 06:37 MST ------- By the way, instead of using mount -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8 /dev/sdb1 /tmp it is better to use mount -t vfat -o utf8=true /dev/sdb1 /tmp because with iocharset=utf8 you get some warning messages in /var/log/messages, see for example bug #60085. These warnings do really cause some problems in some cases with case sensitivity. Therefore it is better to use utf8=true. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=242074 ------- Comment #7 from mfabian@novell.com 2007-02-14 06:45 MST ------- Gao Weizhong> I do not know how to set "cp936" now, [...] On the command line, you can specify "cp936" in addition to utf8=true like this: mount -t vfat -o utf8=true,codepage=936 /dev/sdb1 /tmp See "man mount": codepage=value Sets the codepage for converting to shortname characters on FAT and VFAT filesystems. By default, codepage 437 is used. I.e. the "codepage" option is for the shortnames and the utf8=true option for the long file names. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
