I can. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty, meaning

 * Dia 0.96.1
 * Firefox 3.0.15

Dia is clearly at least part of the problem. A different setup with Dia
0.97 and Iceweasel on Debian Testing (I'll have to get back with exact
versions when I get home) does not show the reported problem. However,
if I manually modify the generated SVG to include the xmlns=... stuff,
it doesn't really help. Firefox can then display the image if I open it
as a file. But if I refer to the image from an HTML document, then
Firefox just displays "alt" text in place of the image.

Please note I'm not a web programmer. I merely generate HTML from
Asciidoc sources. However, the exact same source documents (dia diagram
+ asciidoc text) generate working pages on my Debian machine. I have
tried both xhtml11 and docbook+xsltproc backends for Asciidoc and they
both generate pages that don't display SVG images. This is surprising,
because the two tool chains generate very different HTML. I would have
guessed that at least one of them should generate something that
displays correctly.

The implication is that the xmlns=... workaround is not a complete
solution!
