tamil font chrome + linux (Fedora distribution)

All of  a sudden tamil fonts are not shown properly in chrome.

I tried this step and then it had started working fine.

# cd ~/.fonts/
# mv *.ttf /tmp/

Now reload the page.  Everything should be fine.

PS:
I am not sure about consequence of this in other software used. If you feels so, Please revert back by moving those files back from /tmp to ~/fonts/ back.  # mv /tmp/*.ttf ~/.fonts/
