Ah, that's a different case! So it's not the contents of the file  
desktop writes to save the names of buffers, it's the contents of the  
open buffers! This *cannot* be caused by desktop.el.

You might like to add to .emacs:

        (prefer-coding-system          'iso-latin-1-unix)

although LC_CTYPE set correctly should do this inherently.

Don't forget to save the files with corrected contents before leaving  
GNU Emacs! Otherwise you'll see the same again ...


Another cure is a header line like this:

        %%% -*- mode: LaTeX-mode; coding: iso-8859-15-unix; fill-column: 90 -*-

or the use of 'local variables' in the file's footer:

        %
        % Local Variables:
        % mode: LaTeX
        % fill-column: 160
        % coding-system: iso-latin-9
        % End:
        %
        %%



BTW, ``--´´ is not used in German, our ``Gedankenstrich´´ is ``-´´  
(or is it TeX notation?). The comma is in the wrong place. The second  
``das´´ should be ``dass´´ -- and it should be in that context ``auf,  
dass´´.
