Public bug reported:
Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: Medium
Status: Needs Info
Description:
I've been trying out dapper for a few days, and I've been using my usb hdd with
music on it to listen to music while I'm on the dapper computer. But when I
fired it up today and inserted the hdd the icon that apperas on the desktop got
some weird characters in it (I can't type them here, so I'll attach a
screenshot), instead of the normal "37 GB Media" that its usually called. It
also got mounted at /media/<strange name here> instead of /media/usbdisk that it
got mounted at yesterday and the day before that. I really hope this is just a
bug in hal or gnomes media manager or something, and that my filesystem hasn't
been corrupted. I've tried listening to one music file and playing one the first
few minutes of a movie I had on there, so it seems like its working, but I have
lots of things on that disk and it would take too long to check it all.
Here is the relevant output from the mount command:
/dev/sda1 on /media/D"??H?$ type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)
And here is the relevant lines from dmesg:

Could that last line have something to do with it? FAT is not supposed to be
case sensitive, so something is obviously up.
