even worse. in both konqueror and dolphin, if i browse to any smb
location on the network that contains non-english letters in any
directory, even if it's one out of 1000 available directories, konqueror
would display a blank page, and dolphi would tell me that the process
for smb dies unexpectedly. very annoying. not sure if those windows
machines are using utf or some other encoding, they are all NTFS, if
that's any help, but no idea what encoding they use for these
non-english letters :-S
