Thunar can't show the chinese filename in the usbdisk with a vfat partition

[witkey]

Binary package hint: thunar

This bug is found in xubuntu 8.04.
The same usbdisk works well in 7.10.

The locale is set to zh_CN.utf8.
The output of mount command shows that the usbdisk is not been mounted with the right options.
Where is these options been decided, and by which program?

Is it belongs to thunar or exo package?

Thanks for your bug report.

I uploaded to my PPA (https://launchpad.net/~mrpouit/+archive) a new revision which should fix this issue, could you install it and retry?
Thanks.

OK!
Now it works as it should be.
Thanks anyway!

I guess you should add the same options to ntfs partition.

[Lionel Le Folgoc (mrpouit)]

Thanks for confirming.
I'll take care of ntfs in the next upload, because there are a few things to find out: I don't know if Ubuntu uses 'ntfs' or 'ntfs-3g', and I don't have any ntfs partition to test this. Could you file a new bug report if you experience some issues when mounting ntfs(-3g) partitions with exo-mount please?
Thanks.

This bug was fixed in the package exo - 0.3.4-3ubuntu2

---------------
exo (0.3.4-3ubuntu2) hardy; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - drop xfce.mk and use {debhelper,autotools,simple-patchsys}.mk
    - do not install the .desktop files which only create dups of the settings
      manager items.
  * debian/patches/01_fix-vfat-mount-options.patch: pass 'utf8' and 'usefree'
    for vfat partitions. (LP: #193883)

For ntfs partition in usbdisk, the file with chinese name can't be found in thunar window.
The file with english name is ok.

I downgrade the thunar-volman to version 0.1.2, and install gnome-mount package.
And everything is ok.

So need to patch again.

Btw, ubuntu uses ntfs-3g to mount the ntfs partition.
