Public bug reported:

I have created and edited some .tex files in ubuntu 7.10, using kile 1.9.3 
and/or texmaker 1.6. They are written in danish, so the letters 'æ', 'ø' and 
'å' occur frequently. When opening the files with kile or texmaker in ubuntu 
8.04 alpha 2 (or opensuse), the letters are not recognized, and the files are 
therefore useless (in texmaker the letters simply dont appear; kile shows æ 
instead of 'æ', ø instead of 'ø' and Ã¥ instead of 'å'). 
But, if I rightclick on one of these files and choose 'Open with Text Editor', 
all the letters are displayed correctly. If I create a new file in either 
texmaker or kile, I can copy the entire text from gedit and into the empty 
file. The letters will then be displayed correct in the editors, but the file 
cannot be compiled. For every special character, LaTeX gives an error like: 

./sdf.tex:35:Package inputenc Error: Keyboard character used is 
undefined(inputenc) in inputencoding `utf8'. 
or 
./sdf.tex:35:Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:åde not set up for use 
with LaTeX.

I load the package \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} in the preambel. The 
Tex-installation is the one wich automatically gets done when installing kile. 
I am not sure exactly what more information you need, so just ask. 

Best regards, 
Christian Dalbjerg
