--- Begin Message ---Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.12-6 The vfat driver in 2.6.12 appears to include a regression compared with earlier versions. VFAT is a case-insensitive filesystem, but with this kernel filenames are not handled in a case-insensitive manner: $ cd /media/usb0/ $ touch foo $ ls -l foo -rw------- 1 vorlon vorlon 0 2005-10-08 03:25 foo $ touch fOo touch: cannot touch `fOo': File exists $ cat fOo cat fOo: No such file or directory $ rm foo $ touch FOO $ ls FOO ls: FOO: No such file or directory $ ls foo foo $ touch foo_not_8.3.txt $ touch fOO_not_8.3.txt $ ls -l f*txt -rw------- 1 vorlon vorlon 0 2005-10-08 03:28 foo_not_8.3.txt -rw------- 1 vorlon vorlon 0 2005-10-08 03:28 fOO_not_8.3.txt $ This poses a significant compatibility problem when sharing vfat volumes between Debian and Windows (which, y'know, is the whole point).

We don't have the ressources to reproduce the complete backlog of all older kernel bugs, so we're closing this bug for now. If you can reproduce the bug with Debian Wheezy or a more recent kernel from testing or unstable, please reopen the bug by sending a mail to cont...@bugs.debian.org with the following three commands included in the mail: reopen BUGNUMBER reassign BUGNUMBER src:linux thanks Cheers, Moritz
