Severity: normal

I have Debian in a UTF8 system. I use Gnome and, when I open a
gnome-terminal window, the default option is always ISO-8859-1 tho my
characters.
In my language I have a lot of special characters, and is unconfortable
change this option all the time I open a terminal. The system always reset the
option to
ISO-8859-1.

Saulo you can either edit your .bashrc to export variables LANG and
LC_ALL to be -say- pt_BR.UTF-8.
You can also select it when logging in GDM (the greeter that comes by
default, see "Language"). Or you can dpkg-reconfigure locales (if i
recall correctly).
I'm not on a debian box to confirm this, but I think dpkg-reconfigure
locales does the trick, letting you choose which locale you want to make
default (choose the explicit UTF-8 variant).
greetings
