Bug Description

Binary package hint: dolphin-kde4

Dolphin displays ??? (question marks) instead of UTF-8 characters in files.

To reproduce:
1) Boot KDE 3.5.9 (Kubuntu 8.04 with UTF-8 locale) and create file with Hebrew characters in filename via Konqueror.
2) Move file to portable USB flash drive via Konqueror.
3) Boot KDE 4.1 (Kubuntu 8.10 a3 with UTF-8 locale) and open USB flash drive

What happens:
The filenames consist of question marks instead of Hebrew characters.

What I expected to happen:
I expected the filenames to remain with Hebrew characters.
