[Linux-disciples] Rendering foreign languages in Mozilla

[Adam Kessel]

Try getting the unicode font packages as well. e.g.,
xfonts-efont-unicode, etc..  It might be that the characters that are not
rendering are bold and the thyromanes package doesn't include bold
versions, in which case you might be SOL unless you turn off the
stylesheet.
