hi again,

i also tried your options, the utf8 switch i have tried before.

nothing helped :( 

with the utf8 switch unicode characters don´t show a "?" via ls but some
other wired stuff. 

i now created a bug in bugzilla ->
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23696

thanks a lot for your help
