I'm having some problem of gibberish in filename. picture:

enter image description here

That how the Gibberish is look. here also a download for an one empty folder with gibberish on its filename: http://theag.co/ht/LALOT/data/AAA.zip

I tried convmv, but it says it's already UTF-8. so encoding may not be the problem. output of convmv-It seems not copyable (it's on th Desktop, "con" folder and in Jazz2 threre's also another file with gibberish):

    ubuntu@PrecisePangolin:~$ convmv -r -f windows-1255 -t UTF-8 /home/ubuntu/*

    No changes to your files done. Use --notest to finally rename the files.
    ubuntu@PrecisePangolin:~$ 

I also tried running:

sudo apt-get install unifont 

but I didn't see any changes, should I logout and login or restart?

any solution and suggest is appreciated (:
