Problems with Hebraic letters with Firefox (firefox:18587)
Posted: 16. Oct 2011, 12:05
Firefox doesn't renders Hebrew fonts on many pages
This is the error that is being displayed in the terminal when visiting this page
Screenshot:
However, when I'm running Firefox with this command everything looks fine.
EDIT: False positive, everything is fine.
There was a problem with the permissions in certain folders of Culmus inside ~/.fonts but I still would like to know what exactly did LANG=he_IL.utf8 (nor LANG=en_GB.utf8 neither LANG=en_US.utf8 work like LANG=he_IL.utf8)
