[mtools] mtools with Konqueror interface

[Santonier family]

Hello,

I'm using mtools to access my USB key "gently" with Linux (otherwise 
files get erased when the key is close to full).

It works fine with the command line. Example:
mcopy u:/file.pdf ~/tmp/file.pdf
where mtools.conf contains
drive u: file="/dev/sdc1"

*but* if I use Konqueror and point it to "floppy:/u", and I drag and 
drop a file from the Usb key (u:) to my ~/tmp directory, it gets 
corrupted while keeping the exact same size. More precisely it seems 
that it get byte-swapped (on the first bytes at least?).

This Konqueror interface to mtools used to work on the versions of 
mtools and Konqueror I had on my Mandrake Linux 8.2, and it nio longer 
works with the vesions that come with Mandrake Linux 10.1 (mtools 3.9.9 
and KDE 3.2).

Help appreciated.
Best regards,

   Laurent.
