I am not an expert, but the issue is likely that Dapper tries to mount the drive using utf8 encoding. If the finames or volume label were in a different encoding (such as iso8859-1, aka Latin-1), this would explain the mess.

Can you try to unmount the usb volume, then remount with option iocharset=iso8859-1 ? Does it help?
