Bug Description
Binary package hint: partconf-mkfstab
If I insert a cd/dvd the names of the files containing accents won't display properly:
e.g. "Verità" is displayed like "Verit?"
This problem affects only the installed version of Ubuntu (Dapper and Edgy) and only the files on CDs or DVDs.
Ubuntu's livecd seems not to be affected by this problem when it runs live (the problem shows up once Ubuntu is installed).
NOTE: I have the language set to British English in Ubuntu (even if I am Italian).
I have found the solution to the problem:
I need to open the fstab and add "iocharset=utf8" to the line about my dvdreader:
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,
I hope that "iocharset=utf8" can be set by default when Ubuntu is installed.
NOTE: Ubuntu Dapper and Edgy (as well as Debian Etch) are affected by the same problem (Fedora core 5 is not)

Thanks for your report. This would appear to be the same as bug 22623.
