Re: Greek fonts missing from all browsers

I'm using openSUSE 10.2 and sometime within the last month none of the
browsers display my favorite pages written in Greek fonts particularly
the biblical sites. Since all the browsers started this behavior I
assume it is some system wide problem. Where do I look?

The browsers include Konqueror 3.5.7, Firefox 2.0.0.5, Galeon 2.0.3,
Opera 9.22 and SeaMonkey 1.1.3. Not even Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5 nor
6.0 display the Greek Fonts either. By the way my kernel is i686,
2.6.20.15-ccj49-default.

All the browsers work on the Windows XP bootup and the settings are
basically the same in both openSUSE and WinXP versions of the browsers.

Try this page. Download them and install with system tools. In kde you
can use the font installer in the kde 'personal settings' menu (kcontrol
center) under 'Appearance and Themes' -> font installer or using
konqueror right click on the font (after uncompressing) and select
'actions' -> install.
