  I can't view sometimes accented characters in kubuntu edgy, nor in X or
  in a console. A "?" similar symbol is shown. My locale is
  LANG=de_DE.UTF-8. I think the problem also has to do with the behaviour
  of tar and cvs applications, because when I use tar in a solaris machine
  the accented characters are correctly extracted (or maybe that is a
  locale issue?), although I still can not see them correctly from kubuntu
  using ssh.
  
  I don't know it that is a compatibility problem between the character
- sets US-ASCII and  UTF8. I don't know much about this. I guess this is
- the same problem I had previously using KAudioCreator for generating the
- metadata.
