I have a Victor Reader Stream and transfer books via linux to sd cards, usually using a card reader. When I put the sd card in the reader and plug it in, if I am also logged in to Gnome the card will mount automatically; I discovered that if I am not logged in to gnome I have to mount manually. At any rate, when the card mounts I get this message: FAT: Utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, file system will be case sensitive! I've even re-run dpkg-reconfigure locales and eliminated Utf8 but I still get this message when I mount an sd card. I haven't noticed it as a problem with sd card I've done for myself but am concerned because I'm about to do somebody else's card; I could do it in Macosx or Windows to be safe but I find the linux commandline to be the easiest way to do it. Is there something i should do to get rid of this problem? Is it a setting involved with gnome independent of the localles package? Or is this a message I can safely ignore? The person using this card will eventually be using it to load from a Windows system so I want to make sure I don't do anything to cause a problem with her card.
