Strange Ubuntu/Vista Compatibility Bug, Solved

Posted by timothy on from the love-it-when-a-plan-comes-together dept.

Walter Vos writes "Since I've been running Vista and Ubuntu in dual boot with a shared FAT32 partition for my personal folders, I've been seeing some strange compatibility issues between these two operating systems. Somehow Vista locks the folders on the FAT32 partition that are used for folders like Documents, Downloads, etc. A blogpost I wrote gives a detailed description of the problem and a fix for it."

    because this is /. ? hellooo ... is this still a /. ?

    anyway, there is nothing wrong with that, it's just, hmmm i have seen many people doing that. and most of them is -you know-, using GNU/Linux to look cool "hey i'am hacker-wannabe, look at me with the cube". and yeah most of them use not-legal-aka-pirate Windows, and other .exe software.

    so, since you are hollow too, i will release your soul. BANKAI!
