Description Łukasz Lis 2005-06-05 15:56:10 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          GCC 3.3.5 
OS:                Linux

Konsole sets it's encoding appropriately when run with enviroment variables LC_ALL and LANG set to values  other than the system default. These settings aren't restored properly after signing out and back in.

What I did:
1. Wrote a simple shell script:
--
#!/bin/sh
LC_ALL=pl_PL.ISO-8859-2 LANG=$LC_ALL /usr/kde/3.4/bin/konsole
--
2. Ran it through a shortcut
3. Logged out
4. Logged in

There's no way Konsole can do that.  You are setting the encoding by env variables.  Try using the Settings->Encoding menu instead.
