Hi,
I recently bought a new USB drive (Transcend, 2 gb) to replace the one I lost. It is the same make as my old one, so I thought I would have no problems with it. Annoyingly, it looks like I was wrong. Indeed, I cannot create or copy or any any way approach file with accents in the filename to my USB drive
I run Fedora 9 with the most recent kernel (2.6.27) on an Intel C2D with an Asus P5Q motherboard.
I tried the solution described here (in French) : http://doc.fedora-fr.org/wiki/Obsol%C3%A8te_-_Partition_UTF-8_et_clefs_USB_mont%C3%A9es_via_HAL and it has not worked.
Nautilus says "Le nom XXX n'est pas valide. Veuillez utiliser un nom different" (or approximately "The filename XXX is not valid. Please use a different filename")
This is a recent problem. Also, this is not unique to my USB drive : my iPod exhibits the same problem. My main filesystem does not, so it seems like it is a USB problem (HAL perhaps) ?
mount gives this line
/dev/sdc1 on /media/disk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=lower,uid=5 00)
dmesg gives this from insertion to two touch attempts for files with
