Greets. I recently copied a bunch of files from a fat32 flash to my ext3 (~/Desktop). Some of them are cyrilics and became ????????.mp3 or similar. I can copy then within the ext3 but if i try to copy them to another fat32 i get a bunch of errors, mostly "invalid parameters". Also when trying to chmod the whole thing from root to the regular user i get Operation not permited... So i have a bunch of files i can't copy to other filesystems.
I get this regardless of the filemanager i use - the default is thunar (i think...could be gnome's), but i prefer rox-filer. Is there some sort of abstraction layer, or filter or whatever that will convert everything to Unicode? At least rox-filer will mark badly (unicode)named files in red, but it would be great it that was transparent even when mv/cp flies. I.e. to have a default unicode system. Xmms will sometimes show ID3 tags garbled for instance. -- Fica bem, porta-te mal. Be well, misbehave. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
