how to auto mount the usb device in thunar with utf8?

I had tried add

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">

<device>
<!-- Use UTF-8 charset for vfat -->
<match key="volume.fstype" string="vfat">
<merge key="volume.policy.mount_option.iocharset=utf8" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>

</deviceinfo>

into

/etc/hal/fdi/policy/preference.fdi

and restart hal.

wiki said

/etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi

I tried both, but they all doesn't work.

I use xfce4.6.

So, could somebody can help me with this hal stuff? Thank you very much!

PS: I like to keep my system newest, so I don't like that exo patch.
