Hi,

I am trying to name a folder using Greek characters and it fails(bane breaks to unreadable format). Do you have any idea how to fix this?

I tried setting the locale to utf8 and to Greek from the conf file but still not working.

Thanks!

Hi  
Try to run “locale-gen greek\_code.UTF-8” in your system ?!
