That looks like the file names are encoded in an 8-bit encoding, but
your terminal, file manager or whatever you're viewing the file names in
tries to interpret them as UTF-8. The non-English letters are then seen
as illegal UTF-8 code sequences, and question marks are displayed instead.
I wouldn't exactly be surprised if CVS ignores the character encoding
issue entirely, thereby forcing everyone to use the same encoding.
As "ne..." said, you can edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n, but it will affect
your entire system.
