isn't the option iocharset=utf8? gnome-mount provides a panel for nautilus properties precisely to do that. utf-8 charset for vfat systems is often enough a wrong idea so there is no way it's going to be the default. Thanks for reporting anyway. wontfix per previous comment (In reply to comment #4) > gnome-mount provides a panel for nautilus properties precisely to do that. > utf-8 charset for vfat systems is often enough a wrong idea so there is no way > it's going to be the default. Thanks for reporting anyway. > Саn you try to write example where option utf8 for vfat is wrong? PS: see ebuild this option will be set to default with use-flag unicode (In reply to comment #3) > isn't the option iocharset=utf8? > Yes isn't, see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt *** Bug 301999 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** BTW: To get nautilius properties for setting mount options you need to add nautilius use flag when emerging gnome-mount as this is not enabled by default. Again, at best you can set mount options per drive *ONLY* when some media is actually inserted. Taking into account that modern card readers present themselves as multiple drives (eg. one for CompactFlash, one for SD, one for MemoryStick etc.) this make the whole exercise a bit painful if you're dealing with different flash cards.. Most likely running gconf-editor and setting /system/storage/default_options/vfat once is a better alternative. But will I remember it if I want get the very same setup on a different box in a month time ? Probably not.. Is there a way to get it working out of the box ? Other Linux distos somehow managed to do that.. |
many people recompile kernel with this options to support auto mount usb-flash with vfat pertition File Systems --> DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems --> (utf8) Default iocharset for fat But this don't right way. Right way wrote in this solutions Like this: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/ru/utf-8.xml http://www.gentoo.org/doc/de/utf-8.xml http://www.gentoo.org/doc/fr/utf-8.xml We need mount vfat with utf8 option. But in default gnome-mount.schema don't have this option.
