Check out 'dmesg' output after the mount; If I guess correctly, you'll see an error relating to either Codepage or NLS. If I did guess correctly, your kernel does not have support (NLS) for the relevant codepage on the given FS sitting on the USB stick. (if the USB stick visited a non-american Windows machine, this is a really common problem, actually...)
