yes, it is there with correct UTF-8 coding of the chars of the file
name;

this gave me the guess to set LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 in the Evo environment
and now all is fine, i.e. OOs opens the file correctly;

nice saying; I run FreeBSD 8-CURRENT in my production laptop (i.e. I depend on
it in my daily business); and I think this, running 8-CURRENT in a
laptop, is already ahead of much folks; updating Evo means, updating a
lot of stuff (Gnome) at the same time... I need a window of free time to
update my laptop all at once (and prepare this in some VM to compile all
the ports);

thanks anyway;
