Comment 13 for bug 27897

Martin, this is the output of lshal > hal.txt as you had requested. I decided to look through the file and I picked out the section you may be interested in. Please note that this is with mounting the partition with the iocharset option. I didn't see a difference with or without it.

Here is the snippet:

(string list)
  info.interfaces = {'org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume'} (string list)
  volume.ignore = false (bool)
  volume.policy.desired_mount_point = '

  volume.policy.mount_filesystem = 'vfat' (string)
  volume.policy.should_mount = true (bool)
  volume.policy.mount_option.quiet = true (bool)
  volume.policy.mount_option.iocharset=utf8 = true (bool)
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_3037_AAEC' (string)
  volume.partition.msdos_part_table_type = 12 (0xc) (int)
  info.product = '

  block.device = '/dev/hda2' (string)
  linux.hotplug_type = 3 (0x3) (int)
