22 Hmm, mozilla-firefox does not have an svg flag. Anyway, I have svg in

24
25 [I] x11-libs/cairo
26
27 Installed versions: 1.8.6-r1!t(18:54:43 03/17/09)(X glitz opengl
28 svg -cleartype -debug -directfb -doc -xcb)
29
30 It's not just FF, but also Opera and Konqueror cannot render it either
31 and ask to download a plugin.
