Your problem is quite probably this one:

        http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#locale3

I've never heard that Polish people would have this problem __if__ their 
distribution correctly setup the national/locale environment (LANG, LC_*
variables, etc).

Debian has at least the problem that the national environment is configured 
only after NTFS is already mounted during the boot process. Which is too 
late of course. If this is the case for you then please submit a Debian bug 
report. Thanks.
