[ILUG-Cochin.org] Malayalam Fonts on Jaunty

[habeeb z]

Thanks syam, that worked except for Madhyamam. what could be wrong with

installing padma, I could see couple of smiling faces when they found their
newly-installed-ubuntu gave them an opportunity to read their favourite
malayalam news papers online.

Thanks again

regards,
