retitle 305773 positron: does case-sensitive searches on Neuros
filesystem under some charsets
thanks
Hmm. It seems like this problem only happens when the Neuros is
mounted under certain charsets. In particular, when mounted using
utf8, which is the default charset when mounting under pmount with a
UTF-8 locale, all VFAT operations are case-sensitive, and this problem
occurs. Whereas when mounting under iso8859-1, which is the default
for mount, all VFAT operations are case-insensitive and everything
works fine.
To work around, one can specify the charset for pmount manually using
the -c option. Of course, people who use an automounter such as the
one in GNOME may not be able to do this if they cannot add
command-line options.
