Full justification is the default in XeLaTeX.

At this time bidi was quite incomplete, maybe even faulty. I recommend to
upgrade to TeX Live 2012 and after its installation to update it incrementally

Did you try it with TeX Live 2009? With TL '09 this definitely does *not* work

Yes. And XeTeX is its own "TeX engine" which can use almost all LaTeX packages
(some, like those for input or font encodings, are useless). More on the use of
XeTeX can be found here: http://xml.

Or the font used is a bit economical… (Are these characters far away from Latin
and Indian character ranges needed at all for typesetting in Indian scripts?

On your system xdvipdfmx seems to be loading the font file directly from disk
instead of receiving it from the fonts service…

On Linux you have the libfontconfig based font service. It uses commands like
fc-cache, fc-list, etc. It has a configuration file named fonts.conf, ma
