To me it's clearly a bug, but the kernel maintainers inexplicably call it a feature. To get the behavior that you and anyone in his right mind expects, mount the fat32 volume with the option shortname=mixed. If you mount the volume by hand then you can specify this option on the command line (with mount -o shortname=mixed if memory serves). If usb drives are mounted automatically, then you need to modify a configuration file somewhere to change the options that are used to mount them. In Fedora I got it working by modifying a HAL fdi file somewhere; you can probably dig up relevant web pages as well as I, but if you don't find it then feel free to get back to me and I'll find my notes on the subject. -Aaron _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
