KDE4 GUI displays mis-encoded characters in log viewer

[Jani Uusitalo]

Using the KDE4 GUI (on a regular Ubuntu Unity desktop), the log prints (at least some) Scandinavian characters wrongly. I'll attach a screenshot for demonstration. Meanwhile, the log viewer of the Gnome GUI displays the same characters without problems (I'll attach a screenshot of that as well).
