           Summary: Chinese characters do not display correctly in the
                    folder view of a USB flash disk
           Product: openSUSE 10.3

        OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Hotplug

Chinese characters do not display correctly in the folder view of a USB flash
disk. In fact, the Chinese characters are displayed as question marks. 

Using the "mount" command as root, it shows:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/LEXAR type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=lower,uid=500)

I have to use the following commands in order to see correctly the file names:
umount /media/LEXAR
mount -t vfat -o rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=lower,uid=500,iocharset=utf8
/dev/sdc1 /mnt/disk

The option "iocharset=utf8" seems to do the trick. Is it reasonable to make
this option permanent and be integrated with the hotplug service (HAL I guess)?
