Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Debian stable Packages OS: Linux Choosing a remote character set for FTP kio slave requires restarting of Konqueror. I have an UTF-8 setup and I reproduce it with following: 1) Open a FTP directory that contains non-UTF-8 characters, e.g. in KOI8-R. 2) Choose the remote character set via Tools->Remote Character Set->koi8-r. You see that names are reencoded and readable now. 3) Change the directory to another one that also contains koi8-r names and you see that these names are not reencoded. You need to change charset to something other than koi8-r and then back to koi8-r. 4) Restart the Konqueror and you see that everything works now. It remembers the last charset you've chosen and works properly since this moment. But changing it to other value again requires restart of the browser.
This is also reproducable on the latest ArchLinux with KDE 3.5.6.

Does this happen in KDE 4.x as well ?
