This is on Debian Testing, Intel 32 bit processor. I can use scim on my KDE desktop without any problems ... almost. The only hiccup is that its applet does not start when I log in. This gives an option of switching to my last changed keyboard using CTRL+SPC only (since I cannot click on an applet to select a different layout). I have to kill its gtk instance which forces some auto restart in scim and the kde applet appears. Example, right now I have the following processes. I do not have the scim applet, but I can switch to the alternate layout using CTRL+SPC. $> ps uax | grep scim hs 2214 0.0 0.1 9964 1772 ?

Now, all that is well and good, but I am no sure why gtk related instance starts. So I poked around /etc files and found this: $> cat /etc/scim/global /SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_US.UTF-8 /DefaultPanelProgram = scim-panel-gtk /DefaultConfigModule = simple /DefaultSocketFrontEndAddress = local:/tmp/scim-socket-frontend /DefaultSocketIMEngineAddress = local:/tmp/scim-socket-frontend /DefaultSocketConfigAddress = local:/tmp/scim-socket-frontend /DefaultPanelSocketAddress = local:/tmp/scim-panel-socket /DefaultHelperManagerSocketAddress = local:/tmp/scim-helper-manager-socket /DefaultSocketTimeout = 5000 Perhaps the default panel program is the responsible for it. I wonder how to make it so that gtk related scim starts in Gnome but kde related in KDE only. Another thing that might matter is the following file: $> cat ~/.scim/global /DefaultKeyboardLayout = kconfig /DisabledIMEngineFactories = IMEngine-M17N-am-sera, .... <and so on: all the disabled layout in my scim applet> /SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_CA.utf8,en_US.UTF-8,fr_FR.UTF-8 Regards. -- Please reply to this list only.
