[solved] automount FAT32 usb with Cyrillic symbols

[werepacman]

Hi.
System automounts FAT32 usb with ? instead of Cyrillic symbols.
To display them properly I need to mount USB manually
mount /dev/sdc1 -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8 /mnt/dir

How to add iocharset=utf8 optionn to automount?

Thing I've never thougth about before....
=> putting it in /etc/fstab is a possibility (make it user-mountable), but when it's not inserted at boot, there'll be a warning of the device not present in system...

Maybe following site does give some advice?
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/vfat-charset-mount-help-381047/
=> but I can't find the file mentioned there at once in our filesystem.... (maybe someone who knows the PCLinuxOS file system more thoroughly...  )

Now it mounts with other symbols.

[AS]

Try: iocharset=iso8859-5

[werepacman]

It works ok with manual mount command.
But where is rules for auto mount?

Configure desktop > Hardware > Removable devices > Enable automatic mounting ...

Configure desktop > Hardware > Removable devices > Enable automatic mounting ...

it isn't possible there to define the parameters at mounting.....
(and I still don't know where to add them in PCLinuxOS)

uninstallation of this packages solved the problem:
 LUFS, aufs-utils, am-utils.

Mmmh, interesting

This three packages?:

Linux Userland File System
LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting many filesystems:
sshfs, ftpfs, localfs, locasefs, gvfs, etc.  Lots of other "exotic" filesystems
are in the planning phase: socketfs, httpfs, freenetfs and others.

Utils to maintain the aufs file system.
Aufs is a stackable unification filesystem such as Unionfs, which unifies several
directories and provides a merged single directory. In the early days, aufs was
entirely re-designed and re-implemented Unionfs Version 1.x series. After many
original ideas, approaches and improvements, it becomes totally different from
Unionfs while keeping the basic features. See Unionfs Version 1.x series for the
basic features.

Automount utilities including an updated version of Amd
Am-utils includes an updated version of Amd, the popular BSD
automounter.  An automounter is a program which maintains a cache of
mounted filesystems.  Filesystems are mounted when they are first
referenced by the user and unmounted after a certain period of inactivity.
Amd supports a variety of filesystems, including NFS, UFS, CD-ROMS and
local drives.

=> where did you find that advice? Or have you researched Synapic enough to find it out yourself? 

But, it's great that it does work now

I did this because the problem appeared after I installed this packages.
However, It could be just a coincidence.

OK, that's logical (maybe something went wrong during first intall...)
Thanks for clearing this out!
