Just to be sure try the _select:

print db(db.teachers.t_name!='None')._select(db.teachers.t_name,
orderby=db.teachers.t_name, distinct=True)

You will should see same result using the resulting statement under psql.

Now the problem seems your database.  The collation is wrong, since it's
for US:
 LC_COLLATE = 'en_US.UTF-8'
 LC_CTYPE = 'en_US.UTF-8'

Install proper locales for slovenian restart postgres and create a new
database with proper collations.
See on postgresql.org how to do it.
