Hi All!

It`s my first post so be patient :). I`ve got dbus-1.0.2, hal-0.5.8.1 and 
kde-3.5.5 installed on Debian testing. halbacked in KDE mounts my usb stick 
with following options:

$ mount
....
/dev/sdc1 on /media/USB DISK type vfat 
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,shortname=lower)

With these options my filemanager(konqueror or mc) not able to correctly 
display filenames. Therefore I want to add to mount options somthing like 
this "codepage=866,utf8". When I trying to pass mount options in *.fdi file 
codepage.fdi

$ cat /etc/hal/fdi/policy/codepage.fdi
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.udi" string="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer">
      <merge key="storage.policy.default.mount_option.utf8" 
type="bool">true</merge>
      <merge key="storage.policy.default.mount_option.codepage=866" 
type="bool">true</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

It doesn`t affect mount options. I know that is not a new problem, but I can`t 
solve it by myself. Where is my fault ?

Thanks.
