Hi all,
When I transfert files from my girlfriend Windows XP computer to my Linux FC2 computer, I cannot read the files names properly from my Linux. Specials chacarters like é à è are remplaced with a white space. Can you help me or do I have to change my girlfriend? ;-)
Thank
Jean
PS: My variable $LANG is equal to fr_CA.UTF-8.
edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n
and try using fr_CA only without UTF-8:
check if under SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en ...etc " you have also the fr_CA without .UTF-8
then change LANG to
LANG="fr_CA"
leave all the rest unchanged and then reboot
this is my file so you can understand better what i mean
LANG="en_US" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
