The directory was created in windows, the document also, and I can handle them perfectly from windows (what is more, libreoffice under a linux can also open those documents). Some accented characters are shown as a question mark in FreeBSD, and some others are as a black rectangle; these latter are causing problems. If a file-nam contains such characters then the file is shown as 0- length in Midnight Commander. > > I tried some steps described in the „Localization” part of the FreeBSD Handbook, but things did not improve. > > I installed PC-BSD with Hungarian language support, thinking that it would handle the localized directory names correctly but no, it gives the same error message. > > This problem is really annoying. How could I solve it? In my German environment I also use FAT32 formatted drives, mounted like: /dev/adaXsX /XXX msdosfs rw,large,-Lde_DE.UTF-8 0 0 This should also work for Hungarian?
