That is an important information that was missing in your previous
messages.
Does it help to set...
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'iso-8859-15)
... in your ~/.emacs file? (You shouldn't need any other settings if
the locale is setup correctly.)

Emacs does initialize the setting from the locale. Initialization of
`keyboard-coding-system' works correctly in the X version without any
other settings. I'm not sure why `set-keyboard-coding-system' is
required in Emacs 21.3 when using the no-window mode (I assume you use
21.3; you didn't mention your Emacs version).
In the next (not yet released) version of Emacs, the initialization
works fine, both with and without X, AFAICS.
Bye, Reiner.
