This problem comes from Windows, where "short" names (8.3) are sometimes
converted to uppercase when moving files between NTFS and FAT. The linux
driver is emulating this behavior. Fortunately you can use the
shortname= option in fstab to control this behavior (shortname=winnt
works well for me).


NTFS did not insert non-characters like 0xC1 and 0xE1 into
the file names. Furthermore, the names that got "converted"
case had mixed case in them, which made no sense. Names like

FreD.eXe

I am aware of how long file names work and MSDOS 8.3 limitations.
