What are the settings for this partition in /etc/fstab?

What you can do is t try to add the 'shortname=mixed' option to the
mount options because this enables linux to use lower- and uppercase.
As in:
/dev/hda1 /windows/C vfat umask=0,utf8=true,noatime,shortname=mixed 0 0

(Based on history i adopted the SuSE mountpoint /windows/C instead of
/mnt/......)

Aha, useful to know. Too late to save my mangled file-names now, but
I'll bear it in mind for the next time. On the bright side, having all
my old files in capitals means that I can see which files are new at a
glace.
