Chris,
You may well be correct but that explanation doesn't account for the fact
that the only incorrect information in the ls command output is not even
alphanumeric in type. It is most probably ULONG or some such and would
therefore not be affected so much by ASCII/UNICODE file naming conventions.
BTW, the filenames display fine AFAICT.
It may well be the driver (it is just preliminary). I am not trying to
place any blame, this report is just informational for anyone that is or
wants to be using ext2fs.
Warmest regards to all,
