Yes.  (-:

These just means that you have mounted with a bad default code page or 
whatever you want to call it and the ntfs volume contains characters 
whethe the Unicode (i.e. NTFS) to your code page conversion fails (NLS 
conversion returns error due to non-existant character in your code page).  
As the message suggests if you adjust your mount options to include the 
"nls=utf8" option the errors will go away and everything will work except 
maybe your terminal/gui may dislay some garbage characters if it does not 
understand utf8 characters but at least you will see all 
files/directories.

Correct.  That is just Gnome and in particular gconf stuff (i.e. the Gnome 
daemon providing access to the Gnome version of the Windows registry)...
