Fix for wrong iocharsets in XFCE4 with fat filesystems Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.take a fat partition with cirillic(for example ) filenames 2.mount in xfce 3.see ??? instead of usual characters this can be fixed by changing /etc/xdg/xfce4/mount.rc vfat section to following: [vfat] uid=<auto> shortname=winnt iocharset=<auto> # FreeBSD specific option longnames=true may be treated as a duplicate of bug in exo-0.3.101 but it is not a duplicate, this is another bug in fixed version.
I have been hit by this, too...please fix.

upstream reference?
Where's the link to the appropiate bug at http://bugzilla.xfce.org/ ? Otherwise I'm inclined to close this as "User configurable"

I have no time to test if this bug exist on other distros, so i haven't posted it to xfce bugzilla

If they close it as INVALID/WONTFIX/GOAWAY with a good reason, you should tell here.
I was hoping that someone took this upstream. But, guess not. In the mean time it looks like EXO_MOUNT_IOCHARSET is an option. # iocharset: To the EXO_MOUNT_IOCHARSET or LC_CTYPE environment variable.
