Satya, I am sure firstboot has not done any special rendering stuff. So can you
double check if gedit has the same problem please?

This problem is specific to firstboot?

Comment 7 Jens Petersen 2006-08-08 04:48:59 UTC
LingNing, do you have any idea about this?

Comment 8 Liang Zhang 2006-08-09 05:58:03 UTC
It looks like the bug about (U+0x0d30) + (U+0x0d4d) + (U+0x200d).
I have fixed this bug in the newest pango.
Then (U+0x0d30) + (U+0x0d4d) + (U+0x200d) can display a new glyph. And U+0x200d
will not display.

Comment 9 Chris Lumens 2006-08-14 17:56:57 UTC
This still looks broken to me on today's Rawhide.

Comment 10 Liang Zhang 2006-08-15 01:41:08 UTC
which version do you use pango?
I think pango-1.14 has already fixed this bug.

Comment 11 Chris Lumens 2006-08-15 16:44:50 UTC
This was pango-1.14.0.  Perhaps someone else more familiar with what should be
going on should check.

Comment 12 Jens Petersen 2006-08-16 10:36:05 UTC
I don't see any change either testing with pango-1.14.0-2
and firstboot-1.4.19-1 (rawhide-20060814).

Comment 13 Liang Zhang 2006-08-17 07:32:27 UTC
Do you use the new font file of Malayalam?
It is very important.


Comment 14 Jens Petersen 2006-08-17 07:35:50 UTC
Probably not: fonts-malayalam-2.0-2?

Comment 15 Chris Lumens 2006-08-17 14:07:53 UTC
When did the new fonts go in?

Comment 16 Chris Lumens 2006-08-17 18:39:06 UTC
Looks good in rawhide-20060817.
