Notes:
1) I _can_ mount without specifing a codepage, but then every Hebrew
character in the file names and directory names is replaced with a ?
sign.
2) The "select encoding" option in Konqueror is grey when browsing the card.
3) I get this at the end of dmesg when I mount with the codepage:
[62231.112000] FAT: Unrecognized mount option "codepage=cp1255" or missing
value
Why should I get that error? I don't see a typo.
Also, in mtab I get this when mounting:
/dev/sdb /media/usb vfat rw 0 0
So, the filesystem most certainly is vfat. There is nothing in fstab
about /dev/sdb
Hummm.... Are you running Ubuntu or Kbuntu? I ask that since you mention
Konqueror and Ubuntu is Gnome based and usually uses Nautilus.
FWIW, I installed Ubuntu 7.1 and allowed the system to automount the usb
disk I created on RHELv4 and it displays the Hebrew just fine. The
"interesting" thing is that the mods loaded are nls_iso8859_1 and nls_cp437.
So, details on what OS you are running....and could you let the system
automount just for a test?
