Locale and Umlauts again



I am sorry to ask questions about that again...

I still have problems with it, at least on one pc. I used dpkg-reconfigure 
console-common, installed cyrillic fonts, checked with xfontsel for there 
presence (even in kde center). So the current locales are de_DE.UTF-8@euro, 
and (as examples) in kate and kdevelop UTF-8 is set as default. I'd expect 
that this would be the right way to display all I need (umlauts and cyrllic). 
But it doesnt work.

On the other side, I installed a second pc fresh from the start, did mostly 
the same things - and everything is ok. I take a look at locales, and see, 
here it is "POSIX". I dont know where this comes from...

Anyway, I tried to set this on my first pc, but there was no entry for posix 
within the locales. Any hints? 

Is there a howto about locales and languages and fonts and all stuff I need 
somewhere?
