I converted Font Awesome to be usable as Inkscape Symbols a few months ago, and it took me some time to have a working version that correctly displays the icons in Inkscape, as well as in the browser on the generated SVG file. I've discovered this project now, and it includes more icons and also proper naming for the symbols, so I've decided to use it, applying my corrections.
This pull request corrects the all these problems (orientation, scale, translation problem on browsers).
