===For Debian/Ubuntu/IT@School=== | |||
For ubuntu 8.10 and above or Debian lenny and above, there is no need of installing anything separately. All fonts are packaged with them and there is no rendering bugs. | |||
For Older versions of GNU/Linux distributions follow the below steps : | |||
Open the file '''''/etc/apt/sources.list''''' and add a new line '''''deb <nowiki>http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/smc/debian</nowiki> etch main'''''. If you are using lenny or sid use''''' lenny''''' or '''''sid''''' instead of '''''etch'''''. | |||
Open command line/ Terminal and use these commands. | |||
# wget <nowiki>http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/smc/praveen.key.asc</nowiki> | |||
# apt-key add praveen.key.asc | |||
# apt-get update | |||
# apt-get install suruma | |||
# apt-get install ttf-malayam-fonts | |||
This will fix any rendering problem if there in your system. Then reload/restart your webbrowser/any other program you want to learn the fonts. Set font for the browser. | |||
You can also perform a step by step graphical way using synaptic for correcting Malayalam. Screen shots are available [http://smc.nongnu.org/docs/synaptic/ here]. More help about Ubuntu available [http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/SMC/repos/debian here] | |||
