Post arabic named files dissapered after restarting ...?
after installing ntfs-3g
i used

Code:
mount -t nts-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt/win -o local=ar_EG.utf8


to mount it

and

Code:
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/win ntfs-3g defaults 0 0


in the fstab

but after restarting any files named other than English disappeared

i tried in fstab that and nothing too

Code:
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 -o local=ar_EG.utf8


i want the locale to be permenant after restarting

Your 'locale' option must be set correctly depending on the arabic characters used on NTFS, moreover your distribution must be also UTF8 ready. Maybe you have a problem with the UTF8 settings of your distro.

I'm using open suse 10.2

i think it supports my locale as in the output of the
Code:
locale -a
above

also the checksum for the dvd went fine

and the cd check before installation was ok

another thing i believe that my dist already support Arabic as my ext3 drives reads arabic

files perfectly
