** Summary changed: - Ubuntu should, in some way, handle Windows rules for file names on a NTFS partition + Ubuntu should, in some way, handle Windows rules for file names on an NTFS partition
** Description changed: Binary package hint: ntfs-3g Example: you create a file called "Why do I keep couting?.flac" on an NTFS partition. Ok, but when you open Windows, then you get problems - with this "?". When on a NTFS partition, Ubuntu should warn (not deny) + with this "?". When on an NTFS partition, Ubuntu should warn (not deny) about naming files a way Windows doesn't allow. It also should have a tool for scanning NTFS partitions and then erase/replace the invalid file names. @added: at least that analyzing tool could be implemented, allowing users that get into this problem to scan and replace all undesirable chars. It could be built into suitable place like an ntfs-config option or NTFS-volume properties tab) . -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179910 Title: Ubuntu should, in some way, handle Windows rules for file names on an NTFS partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ntfs-3g/+bug/179910/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
