This issue is affecting me on 11.10, 64 bit trying to view Japanese characters. None of the solutions here help to resolve the issue.

It seems that "Bitstream Vera Sans" (with no font substitution) is used rather than "WenQuanYi Zen Hei" or other appropriate CJK fonts. A screenshot is attached. Steps to reproduce: 1. System -> Properties -> Language Support (from language-selector), and select one of the CJK locales as the default. 2. Re-login as needed. 3. Start Firefox and open e.g. http://www.tudou.com/ . The same problem still plagues Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (lucid) beta 1 with Adobe Flash Player: flashplugin-installer 10.0.45.2ubuntu1.
