>Description:
If you have a disk (usb, card, probably any other media) formatted in fat with assigned label with cyrillic letters, simply plug it in pc.
1. Created device in /dev/fat/* contains incorrect label (possibly encoding issue)
2. KDE hangs fully (not tested gnome) - possibly due to same incorrect named label
>How-To-Repeat:
If you have a disk (usb, card, probably any other media) formatted in fat with assigned label with cyrillic letters, simply plug it in pc.
1. Created device in /dev/fat/* contains incorrect label (possibly encoding issue)
2. KDE hangs fully (not tested gnome) - possibly due to same incorrect named label
>Fix:
Not work with russian-labeled disks, but this isn't a good way
