Thanks for the log. It really seems that the label is severely screwed up (it
doesn't look like ISO-8859 either). From your log I was able to set the label
of my USB stick's partition to the same value you have.
hal should be fixed to ignore these invalid strings. In the meantime, if you
can afford to reformat the drive you can set a good label with
mkfs.vfat -n 'your label' /dev/hda2
or change the label under windows (sorry, there's currently no easy way to
change the label of a VFAT partition under Linux).
** Changed in: hal (Ubuntu)
Status: Needs Info => Confirmed
