Not only is it much too late, I would say there is no possibility whatsoever that they would have chosen a system that wasn't going to be plug-and-play on the vast majority of consumer PCs.
Anything that MS didn't write (except maybe UDF, but there's probably some reason it wasn't feasible, perhaps a reason measured in dollars) would require a separate driver disk to use (Imagine MS putting drivers for an open system on Windows Update - yeah right.) So it wouldn't really be an option. A related issue: Given that the file system of the media needs to be supported by all the future cameras, media players, et cetera, now that the decision has been made, any advice to 'Just reformat' would only work if the card is going to be only PC-to-PC. Of course even if SDXC had gone with something else this bug would still exist (because exFAT does), it just would not be as serious an issue. -- Linux needs exFAT support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315710 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
