      For g_convert(), use GError, to check it did succeed.

Before doing this call, just try doing
g_utf8_validate(buf2, -1, NULL) to see what does this function tell you.

>gtk_text_buffer_insert(textbuffer,&iter,buf2,strlen(buf2));
                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^ try -1 here,
					      may be those aren't bytes but
					      chars...
