Why would I want to use my machine in finnish language? Hate those 
translations, and i don't think that utf-8 is here atm. Maybe in 2010 :)
But this conversation is getting so much of topic, i got it working
but i don't understand the logic why it works w/o lesscharset env,
but maybe it some changes in less which comes with fedora.

So I'm happy now, and will be using my machine in english and w/o utf-8.
