Capital letters in (windows) file names on Fedora 9

Hi,

I just installed F9 on my desktop machine and am running into a
problem when trying to transfer files from a windows system. Here's a
bit of background: I used to switch back and forth between a linux
(FC6) laptop and a windows desktop, transferring my work files back
and forth using a USB stick and rsync. All capital letters are
properly recognized in F6, so when I create a file Temp.R on Windows,
it shows as Temp.R on my FC6 laptop. In F9, however, some filenames
are being converted to lowercase (I suspect those that were created on
Windows..); for example, the file may show up as temp.r. The converted
file names are being displayed both in
File Browser windows as well as in terminal (such as seen by ls or rsync).

Is there any way to make the system recognize the case the way FC6
did? Is this some setting in the automatic recognition and mounting of
file systems? A proper file name recognition from Windows is very
important... I'd hate to have to downgrade the system so I get this
functionality back.

Thanks and best regards,

Peter
