Comment 30 for bug 199165

I see. That's good to hear. But does it also work for USB drives with vfat file systems where folders were created on a Windows machine (e.g. Jérome) and later accessed on a kubuntu machine? The problem is that dolphin apparently always mounts the file system with iocharset encoding, whereas pmount respects the encoding of the system (i.e. what is configured in /etc/default/locale).
