The early versions of Firefox (1.0.x to approx 1.5-r4) used the "mozsvg" USE flag to enable firefox to load SVG images. However, the Changelog says: *mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4 (23 Dec 2005) 23 Dec 2005; Jory A. Pratt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4.ebuild: canvas and svg now default and indeed, the mozsvg USE flag is no longer available to firefox, but my firefox seems to render svg images fine. I tested by going to http://www.linuxrising.org/svg_test/test.html and opening one of the images in a new tab. http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20030813/svggen/styling-css-01-b.svg I'm using Firefox 1.5-r9 (self-compiled, not the -bin). So I'm not quite sure what your problem is, but it seems that it must relate in some fashion to the specific version of FF (maybe you're using a version that needed the USE flag, but you don't have it enabled).

Well, I don't have a web server so I guess I'll have to just live with it for a time being. Thanks for looking into the problem :) -- Regards, Abhay pgpUdVl5OOI8P.pgp Description: PGP signature

I am not that familiar with eog, so can't really help more with it. For firefox, I just found the following tidbit: http://www.mail-archive.com/svg-developers@yahoogroups.com/msg07375.html basically, svgz should be gzip'd svg files. For some reason, Firefox cannot deal with local svgz files, but can display it when served the correct HTTP headers from a webserver. This would explain why it worked on my box (because I only looked at svg files on the web). Which means, possibly, that if you have a webserver (Apache) set up on your box, you might be able to look at the svgz files by serving it via http://localhost/file.svgz?

I did not have mime-types installed thus no /etc/mime.types. Now, I have emerged it but have a different problem in Firefox.
