Nope. The format of fat32 has not changed. > The last time I mounted a W98 vfat it had cp862 names.

Setup: Debian sid, kernel 2.6.9 (self-built), glibc 2.3.2.ds1-18 LANG set to he_IL.UTF-8, no other locale vars set. he_IL-UTF-8 locale defined (in /etc/locale.gen, in Debian's case) . output from 'mount' for the relevant partition: /dev/hda5 on /mnt/win_d type vfat (rw,gid=100,umask=002,iocharset=utf8) All UTF-8. All characters show up well in an ls. I currently have only shell access to the system.. Naturally there are still directionality issues, but those are irrelevant here. Maybe there are problems with the fonts or chrset definitions with konqui. It is more complicated. Try to view the files in a terminal (I use uxterm ATM, urxvt also looks very nice, and there's also always mlterm). -- Tzafrir Cohen +---------------------------+ http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir/ |vim is a mutt's best friend| mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +---------------------------+ ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
