Kiitos Petri! Thanks!

It works for me too. The documents that were named before changing the
locale didn't get back to normal though. I guess they have to be renamed
manually.

By the way, do you know what's the difference between fi_FI.UTF-8 UTF-8
and fi_FI.UTF-8 at euro UTF-8, if any?

I like this list - people give you good awnsers here :) (And when they
don't, they are just being nice or funny :).
