I was getting the same so I played with my locale settings a little, I
ended up putting "export LC_CTYPE=en_AU.ISO-8859-1" in my .bashrc.  Also
I found that there are some characters around \212 that dont display.
However the majority do.  You'd probably want to use
LC_CTYPE=en_GB.ISO-8859-1 I think that the GB stands for Great
Brittan as I cant think of another country that uses those 2 letters...
You may also need to regenerate your locale after editing
/etc/locale.gen so that the correct locale is uncommented.  I know I
have to do this, but it might be a distribution specific thing...
