That may have a solution, in addition to confirming that it's an actual bug and not something you're doing

That refers to kannada fonts . I am talking about Devanagari fonts . They refuse to render correctly on Firefox on a newly installed Ubuntu 6.06 system . I'll post a screenshot .Attached FilesComment

Do you have a link to a website so somebody could look at the rendering of said typefaces?(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

Hmm. I'm not sure I have any clue about the various indic languages, so I probably can't help answer this much. But, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu...fox/+bug/48326 is linked relating to Firefox specifically having trouble with "Hindi" as well as kannanda/telugu.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ho...cFontRendering is I think the same fix, on Ubuntu's website.
http://indlinux.org/ would probably be a good place to go for help...

Why don't all languages use the latin alphabet? It would make things so much easier.

I had a full featured Linux desktop in 2000/01. It took about 2 weeks to configure it and make everything work, and after this it functioned a charm, albeit it was butt ugly (fonts, icons etc.)
When XP came up, I switched my daily work back to Windows (I still used a Linux box as my server/router/gateway, though) and lost a bit contact to the Linux desktop front.
Just recently I set up a BSD box (granted, it's not Linux, but it uses the same X11, KDE, GNOME etc.) and thought, let's check how the free Unices developed on the desktop. It took 5 hours to compile X and 8 hours to compile GNOME (including the basic applications like Firefox etc.). When I started it, I was in for a surprise:
- Default screen resolution was 1400 x 1024. WTF is that? Why not take something with a broader consensus?
- I used GDM and was unable to log in. Why? Because the idiots didn't import the keyboard layout from the OS.
- I turned off GDM and ran it with startx. I set the keyboard layout manually.
- I turned GDM back on and tried to log in again. No avail. Of course, the keyboard layout wasn't yet loaded.
- I turned GDM back off and started with startx again.
- I checked the keyboard layout and it DID NOT STORE the configuration. What the ****?
- I started a simple word processor (comparable Wordpad under Windows). It took about 10 seconds to load.
- The icons, fonts and the whole desktop still looked butt ugly.
- I laughed and removed the whole X crap.
I am by god not a newbie in Linux, but there is a limit how much time and effort I am willing to spend into a desktop to get it productive. X is far away above time this limit.
