Try deleting all your saved cookies on your Firefox browser (Edit->Preferences->Privacy) then try revisiting the page which displays the 404 error.

Hi :)

404 is saying that the problem is with the site you are trying to access, the problem is not with your system. please can you try copy&paste the url from InternetExplorer to the Windows FireFox? 404 indicates a problem in the address line, perhaps you wrote https instead of http or perhaps some other slight error?

I will attempt to pass this question to Launchpad Translators Team as they may have a better answer about how to get the correct fonts for what you need?

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Sometimes, 404 Errors are displayed due to bad cache of the site or a bad cookies.
Other cases for 404 Errors to be displayed on webpages is that PHP's are sometimes not compatible with FastCGI's. That if the website your accessing was built on PHP.

Hi :)

Have you been able to test the new Ubuntu 10.04 before it gets officially released?
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/testing/lucid/beta1
Trying it as a LiveCd or as an extra dual/multi-boot would be ideal. Developers and everyone are keen to try to iron out any problems before 10.04 gets officially released so you might find faster & more effective answers to your bug reports which would make 10.04 work better on your system for you

Thanks and regards from
Tom :)
