This is quite easy.
First make sure your DB is initialized with the proper locale (and has locale
support when compiled). Setting of the locale is important when you do the
initdb procedure of the install.

After that simply insert norwegian characters and you should be fine! :)
We are doing it all the time works a charm here.
