 I have exactly the same problem as you. Accents do not work in konsole, and 
when I open dialog boxes in some applications, for example Kbabel, which I 
use for the KDE translations to spanish, accents will stop working. I have 
even experienced that with kmail, but I stil do not know when it happens with 
it. When it happens if you close the message you want to send and open it 
again you regain the accents. I am using KDE 2.0.1 in one of my machines, and 
KDE 2.1 in another, with Debian 2.2 and X3.3.6. I have already commented this 
problem before in the list and Daniel de los Reyes told me that accents in 
KDE 2.1 in Debian Woody work fine, but I have not tested it..
