cat /proc/filesystems does not list vfat

I'm trying to read an SD card formatted with a FAT32 filesystem. It can be read in windows, but not in Ubuntu.

When I tried cat /proc/filesystems, this was the output:

> cat /proc/filesystems
nodev sysfs
nodev rootfs
nodev bdev
nodev proc
nodev cgroup
nodev cpuset
nodev tmpfs
nodev devtmpfs
nodev debugfs
nodev securityfs>
nodev sockfs
nodev pipefs
nodev anon_inodefs
nodev devpts ext3 ext4
nodev ramfs
nodev hugetlbfs
nodev ecryptfs fuseblk
nodev fuse
nodev fusectl
nodev pstore
nodev mqueue
nodev binfmt_misc

I found that vfat was not listed. Can someone tell me how this can be changed?

Add a line vfat to /etc/filesystems and make sure the file end with a line just containing a * (create the file if it doesn't exist).
