Font problem? 5.10

Bug Description

When I use the Opera browser, the caracters "ő"&"ű" are not correct. (Central
european caracters)

I tried to select other fonts in <system/preferences/font>, and in opera (8.5).
I also tried different encodings in opera, but the problem still exists.
When I use ubuntu 5.04 with opera 8.5, every caracters are perfect, so I think
that could be a bug of the ubuntu 5.10.

By the way, you did excellent work with ubuntu, I tried many different linux,
and this is the very best so far!

Best Regads,
Viktor

Thank you for your bug report. However we cannot provide full support for Opera.
Can you please attach the output of 'locale' and 'locale -a'

Do you have this problem in any programs which are part of Ubuntu (such as
Firefox), or only in Opera?

Thanks for the quick reply folks!
No, this bug only exists in opera, firefox is ok.

Now I installed "msttcorefonts" package, and all letters are correct.

I think the reason was:
I installed ubuntu in english language (with hungarian keyboard layout), so that package was not
included.
Previous I installed ubuntu 5.04 in hungarian language, and everything was ok.

I think many people installs your system in english, but with different keyboard layouts, so I
think it would be a perfect solution to install this package automaticly, when a user swiches to
hungarian keyboard layout.
These letters "ő" & "ű" only exists in hungarian language as I know.

Bye,
Viktor
