I had this problem with Inkscape. It often happened within a few minutes from starting Inkscape. Thanks for the workaround! Here's a slightly simpler procedure for the same workaround:
1. Edit ~/.scim/config and set /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic = true 2. Make the file immutable: sudo chattr +i ~/.scim/config 3. Logout, login. 4. Make the file mutable again: sude chattr -i ~/.scim/config I personally choose to skip step 4, so I'm sure it won't be changed without my permission. Be careful with this, because that may become a problem if you forget about the +i or if a future version cannot cope with the current config format. -- [Gutsy] scim: input freezes in various applications under XIM mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
