  mmm, then I'm a bit lost. just in case: can you check the output of
  `locale charmap` both from bash and from the "Run command" dialog? It
  should output UTF-8, unless you have a broken locale.

  also: it probably is not relevant, but @euro is not necessary, I
  think, with UTF-8 locales, and perhaps is confusing kde. what happens
  if you try with fr_FR.UTF-8 alone?

  thanks,
