encondind por padrao o debian etch vem na codificacao utf-8, ate porque o gnome (interface padrao) usa esse tipo de codificacao. Mas eu uso KDE e todos meus arquivos estao em iso-18

entao eu altero o /etc/environment

LANG="pt_BR"
LANGUAGE="pt_BR"
LC_ALL="pt_BR"

e com o comando:

dpkg-reconfigure locales

deixo em pt_BR ISO-8859-1
