*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 106713 *** Dear jakub, Did you read this report before marking it as a duplicate? I already explicitly point out in this report that I have had the problem both with older Firefox ebuilds (going back to 1.0.4 from 3 months ago) that used Cairo and the latest which uses libart. Therefore, I don't see how this problem could be a duplicate of bug 106713, which is about using libart instead of Cairo. I am therefore reopening this as a separate bug. -- Joe The current stable tree of mozilla/firefox's svg support is very alpha, and some things are not implemented, or disabled. You can look at the status here: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/svg/status.html Further, simple samples do work: http://www.croczilla.com/svg/samples/ Also, if you view the svg directly, you will see how minimal the support is: http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20030813/svggen/animate-elem-02-t.svg Lastly, if you want svg support, then supposidly the new 1.[45] branch of firefox or seamonkey have much better svg support. We should add it to portage when it hits beta fase. Alternatively you can install librsvg with USE=mozilla to get the svg plugin, which seems to be a bit more complete. This is no longer a problem in Firefox 1.5. See bug 84298 comment 5: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84298#c5 By the way, comment 3 above is not relevant, because my report was not about badly drawn figures but about complete blankness. I now see _something_. Yay! |
