So basicly it looks like kde does not support UTF8.
well, it certainly does. we'll try now to find out what do you have
misconfigured so that it does not work for you.
I *suspect* that it's most likely that the locale variables are set
for your shell sessions (e.g., when you run 'locale' from bash it
outputs what you pasted) but not for kde apps.
please do this: launch the kde "Run command" dialog (via Alt-F2) and
run there: locale >/tmp/locale.kde and then send the output (which
will be in the /tmp/locale.kde file).
<snip tips to set locales correctly>
Hello,
Locale return the same things using your trick above and from console
(ctrl+alt+F1):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
LC_CTYPE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_NUMERIC="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_TIME="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_COLLATE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_MONETARY="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_MESSAGES=C
LC_PAPER="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_NAME="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_ADDRESS="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_TELEPHONE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_MEASUREMENT="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
LC_ALL=
So the good news is that kde is using the correct locale. Switching to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] let kde apps know about accents but then they will stop
handling utf-8 (which is not the point).
