Enabling Data Compression For Apache2 + Fastcgi Setup

This Question is Related to my earlier post here: CSS loading issue with Android ICS. Where I was facing issue with CSS and JS rendering by Android ICS's default and Dolphin brows

Solution 1:

Finally, I was able to find the solution of problem here: http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/deployment/apache_fastcgi

Here, For answer of a Question: Why is my application so slow, serving blank pages, and/or acting unexpededly? in FAQ section, they clearly say that.

mod_fastcgi and mod_deflate do not coexist well under certain versions of apache (Debian Lenny stock packages for example). A workaround is to not load the deflate module. An alternative solution is to build and install a recent snapshot version of mod_fastcgi (found at http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/).

So as suggested on post, I updated libapache2-mod-fastcgi package on Server and now I am getting compressed data at client side with correct Response header values.
