It seems that this extends to the name(label in gparted) of FAT partitions. I tried to rename FAT partitions from gparted and it changed every letter to capital. Running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, gparted 3.2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is

Noticed this bug in Ubuntu 17.10, not sure if I've seen this before. Cifs mounted network drive, error message is "The name FILENAME.TXT is already used in this folder. Please use a different name." Renaming with 'mv' via command line is working. My fstab line is: //192.168.1.10/share

Was just about to file a bug on this. The behaviour this bug is producing is incredibly annoying for me. I do a lot of upper and lower case renaming on my FAT32 drive (while sorting music) and I often have to 2-step rename my files and folders with an intermediate, temporary name, so this bug is

Yup, it's a problem that only occurs on FAT formatted drives, as they are case preserving but not case sensitive. The file browser compares the name you're changing the file to all the names of the files in the folder to make sure you aren't duplicating the name. Since it is not case sensitive,
