No special options — all defaults to whatever the Linux kernel and util-linux 2.14.1 gave me. Whereby util-linux should not make a difference because it just passes on the mount request for there is no special vfat helper. Given my second report about the audio player (just sent out), I even compared dualnames=n with =y on the same kernel — which would rule out changed defaults between 2.6.29 and 2.6.31-rc. /proc/mounts contains, on .31-rc: /dev/sdc1 /mnt vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437 iocharset=utf8,errors=remont-ro 0 0 > > Here, dscf4159.jpg is a preexisting file created by the camera itself > > (and subsequently, Finepix's FAT code) as a result of taking a picture. > > Then I just copied that file with two different kernels in succession. > >ok, dscf4159.jpg may or may not be a 8.3 name depending on the >"shortname=" mount option.

Then, I just tried everything to get an overview: (All with DUALNAMES=n) # mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt -o iocharset=utf8,shortnames=lower # cp /mnt/dcim/100_fuji/dscf{4160,3004}.jpg # umount /mnt # mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt -o iocharset=utf8,shortnames=win95 # cp /mnt/dcim/100_fuji/dscf{4160,3005}.jpg # umount /mnt # mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt -o iocharset=utf8,shortnames=winnt # cp /mnt/dcim/100_fuji/dscf{4160,3006}.jpg # umount /mnt # mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt -o iocharset=utf8,shortnames=mixed # cp /mnt/dcim/100_fuji/dscf{4160,3007}.jpg # umount /mnt Result? The camera only displays 3006. The dualnames patch's filling filenames with random illegal chars does seems to have a really foul side-effect after all. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
