If you need ISO locale for pine, then you could create an alias in your
~/.bashrc file:
alias isopine='LANG=C pine'
Or instead of LANG=C use your national locale, mine would be de_DE at euro.
Is "konsole" the KDE terminal? Then it may have an option like the Gnome
terminal, where I can say from menu bar to change the terminal encoding.

This shows X running with "-nolisten tcp"? This is already the default
setting with FC2. You can change that in the gdm settings.
