Strange Sing on Login Screen (6.14)

[mmlitz]

Hello all,

after upgrading to the new version 6.14 I have a strange sign "Â" on my login screen and after logging in in the lower left corner. Any ideas? Thank you.

By the way: the new theme looks quite nice

Thank you.

Can you post a screenshot, please?

Thank you for your quick response. Somm additional information I installed / upgraded on an Ubuntu 9.10 system. There this irritating signs appear. I also upgraded on a Debian Lenny, there everything is okay.

Kind regards
Michael

What character encoding does your browser use to display the page? (In Firefox it's under the View menu.)

Hello,

thank you for your hint. When the strange signs are displayed character set ISO-8559-1 is used. If I switch to UTF-8 everything is okay. How can I force the browser automatically to use the right character set.

Kind regards
Michael
