Most likely the volume label on that vfat filesystem is non-ascii
you can forcible reset the volume label of a vfat partition using
mkfs.vfat -n "11-charname"
you can fire up gnome-device-manager or lshal and see what hal things
the "volume.string" is for that partition if you want to make sure
that's the problem.

there is no volume.string.
this is everything that lshal writes about it:
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_8266_20DC'
volume.policy.desired_mount_point = 'd>
</tr>
";' (string)
volume.policy.mount_filesystem = 'vfat' (string)
volume.policy.should_mount = true (bool)
info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_8266_20DC' (string)
volume.partition.msdos_part_table_type = 12 (0xc) (int)
info.product = 'd>
</tr>
";' (string)
volume.size = 40007729664 (0x950a58200) (uint64)
volume.num_blocks = 78140097 (0x4a852c1) (int)
volume.block_size = 512 (0x200) (int)
volume.partition.number = 1 (0x1) (int)
info.capabilities = {'volume', 'block'} (string list)
info.category = 'volume' (string)
volume.is_partition = true (bool)
volume.is_disc = false (bool)
volume.is_mounted = true (bool)
volume.mount_point = '/mnt/hdb' (string)
volume.label = 'd>
</tr>
";' (string)
volume.uuid = '8266-20DC' (string)
volume.fsversion = 'FAT32' (string)
volume.fsusage = 'filesystem' (string)
volume.fstype = 'vfat' (string)
block.storage_device =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_6EF0CAAP' (string)
block.is_volume = true (bool)
block.minor = 65 (0x41) (int)
block.major = 3 (0x3) (int)
block.device = '/dev/hdb1' (string)
linux.hotplug_type = 3 (0x3) (int)
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_6EF0CAAP'
(string)
linux.sysfs_path_device = '/sys/block/hdb/hdb1' (string)
linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/block/hdb/hdb1' (string)
mkfs.vat does format the volume... this would mean that I would loose
all data stored on it.
can I change it without recreate the fs?
