If you are setting the password from the Linux side, then I suggest that you fix your locale to be UTF8, as is the default in Fedora. Having a different 'display charset' (based on your localle) from your unix charset is not something that I personally recommend. Likewise, your terminal should expect to be inputing utf8 sequences. (I am very much a UTF8-all-the-way man, because everything else seems to lead to insanity).
