Tamil fonts to work properly on my system. I've installed the
tamil-ttf-fonts pack alreadt. The fonts look pretty readable in Konqueror
browser, but looks pretty bad on Firefox (both on sarge default 1.0.4 and
Bon Echo 2.0 a2). I've already set Text encoding to UTF-8 in the
preferences.
You have to enable complex script in firefox. The workaround is just
adding "MOZ_ENABLE_PANGO=1" in /etc/mozilla-firefox/mozilla-firefoxrc
(this file may be available in your firefox installation directory
also). This will work if firefox is built with complex script support
but not enabled by default.
