Look if you just have a partition with filenames in another language
than English ( French, German , Spanish will do ) that use non English
Characters , they will give the result . If you mount the partition with
a utf-8 character set and the filenames don't get messed up then it
means that you are pretty much OK ( remember to back up the files first
BEFORE you play with them ) .
I may have time to do some experimentation later today. All I can say

I posted them . I forgot to mention that i used Fedora Core 4 and the
2.6.15.4 kernel ( downloaded the source and compiled it myself ) .
BTW, I'm in the UK, and it looks as though we are 2 hours behind you.
That's to be expected, Since you are in the UK you use the GMT timezone
, whereas here we have GMT+2
