Iam becoming a true proponent of FSF now..(Anyhow, I am not a convert, may be I would like to call my self an unbiased onlooker). Hats of to the team at SPACE.. Keep the good work.

Install malyalam ttf font. In debian issue this as root apt-get install ttf-malyalam-fonts Then launch firefox and go to tools-extensions-Get_More_Extensions. Search and install the extension named "Padma" Restart firefox and check a malayalam site.
