You have to select fonts that support ISO-8859-15 in section
fonts ok KDE panel, and select that in country and language
too. For this to work you need ISO8859 fonts, those fonts
are included in transcoded packages (for woody):

 xfonts-100dpi- 4.1.0-7
 xfonts-75dpi-t 4.1.0-7
 xfonts-base-tr 4.1.0-7
 xfonts-intl-eu 1.2-2       (International fonts for X --
European.)

I suggest you that read this document and then tell us:
