1) Problem
I can write Hebraic letters when naming files and folders, but other files and folders
in Hebrew, that were created before I've installed SalixOS, are displayed with ? ????
P/S: All the files and folders in question were merely created, named
and renamed on Ubuntu 8.10, and are stored inside a USB Drive.
2) Solution
Strangely enough I've just solved this problem after seeing
that Gigolo issue post and I've figured "why not checking out the problem..."
and "why not trying to mount the USB Drive in question with Gigolo?",
so I did:
...and Voila! WORKS!!!
- a. Salix > System > Gigolo.
b. Select the USB Drive.
c. Connect.
d. Browse the (mounted) USB Drive with Thunar File-Manager.
e. Hebrew letters are displayed correctly.
Need to submit a bug concerning Thunar

(06:54:47 PM) damNageHack: remove your stick (unmount before)
(06:55:16 PM) damNageHack: insert the stick again and try to access with gigolo (right signs then). open a terminal, type "mount" and pastebin the output
(06:55:28 PM) damNageHack: then you will see the difference, i hope so
(06:57:19 PM) damNageHack: and it is no bug of thunar
(06:57:32 PM) damNageHack: because thunar works if the mount is right
