If unmount and remount in PCMan FM then OK.
How fix it? Thank you!
In 13.0.2 was normal (it seems), but 13.1 - problem.

What file system is on that USB stick?

What file system is on that USB stick?

FAT. This USB flash drive from the other linux and windows computers.
If mount in Thunar and write something and after mount in PCManFM then file name displays as: Свиридов музыка
If mount in PCManFM and write something and after mount in Thunar then file name displays as: ??????

[thenktor]

So Thunar and pcmanfm use different mount options. Please first mount the stick with Thunar and post the output of the command mount. After that do the same for pcmanfm, so that we can see which one uses the right options.

[Andyun]

... post the output of the command mount.

How do it?

Mount in Thunar: Info from /etc/mtab:
/dev/sdb /media/S2 vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,uid=1000,shortname=winnt 0 0
Mount in PCManFM: Info from /etc/mtab:
/dev/sdb /media/S2 vfat rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077 0 0

The mount options seem to be wrong in Thunar. It should normally mount with utf8, but it doesnt. Open file /etc/xfce/xdg/xfce4/mount.rc and in the [vfat] section add

Code: Select all

utf8=true

if it's not there.

Is this still the old Thunar bug?

This helped, thank you!
You make this correction in the xfce package? If not, then how do I rebuild it?
In xfce-4.6.1-i486-2gv.txz for 13.0.2 string "utf8=true" is present.

[gapan]

No, because it's already fixed in the package. Now I see the real problem, which I missed earlier. You have LC_COLLATE=C, which disables utf8 for mounting. If you had set it to ru_RU.utf8 you would have had no problems. So, it's not a bug really, it was only caused by your custom locale settings.

[thenktor]

I don't think LC_COLLATE should change the locale settings of mounted drives. It only should change the sort order, shouldn't it? If so it looks like an upstream bug for me, but I could be wrong.
