I haven't used Mozila, but my Konqueror can show CP1251. I've noticed that the only CP1251 fonts you have installed are the scalable fonts in scalable-cyrfonts-x11. May be the problem is that you have no bitmapped CP1251 fonts installed? I would recommend you to install the package xfonts-bolkhov-cp1251-75dpi. After that you have to tell Konqueror what fonts to use for showing CP1251 (microsoft-cp1251) pages. This package provides the following font families that you can use: times, helvetica, courier, serene and serenetypewriter. I don't know how Mozilla chooses its fonts, but I suppose that similarly to Konqueror it needs to be told what fonts to use (by its control panel or something like that). If this doesn't work try to install Unicode bitmapped fonts instead of CP1251 fonts. The corresponding package is xfonts-bolkhov-75dpi. Some additional information: the installed on your system package xfonts-cyrillic provides only KOI8-R fots. Netscape 4 uses KOI8-R fonts for showing CP1251 pages, but Konqueror can't do that. May be Mozilla can't do that either. Anton Zinoviev
