So you _cannot_ just install those kernel modules "on the fly". Some linux .config file (used for the kernel build) might contain CONFIG_NLS=y CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="utf8" CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_437=m CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_737=m ... Which results to nls kernel modules in e.g. lib/modules/2.6.32.11-svn21605/kernel/fs/nls/ Note - check for subpath "2.6.32.11-svn21605" above - it might be different. Strange is that utf8 seems to be not build-in in your kernel version. (Should be the default for years) Cheers, Günter > > ------ > Thomas > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
