On a previous post I got sometime ago from the bugzilla someone had
discovered what the problem was about.... I think. Let me write it
here for you (in case you haven't gotten it):

from Gary Wu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Nov 6
Looking through various scripts (ckbcomp in particular), I found out
that the problem was caused by the entry of

CHARMAP="UTF-8"

in /etc/default/console-setup, while a corresponding UTF-8.acm.gz does
not exist in /usr/share/consoletrans/ as chkcomp was expecting.  If I
change the CHARMAP to use a different encoding that does exist in  this
directory, such as

CHARMAP="ISO-8859-1"

then the problem is fixed once you reboot or restart /etc/init.d
/console-setup.

So, I don't know where the bug is...  somehow my Edgy was installed with
UTF-8 specified for the console encoding, but the file
/usr/share/consoletrans/UTF-8.acm.gz was not installed.

That's what he wrote. Hope it helps you solve the problem.
