The scim/scim/SCIM scheme never worked for me anywhere else but in GTK apps... Although I must add that I use only two IM engines, scim-table-imengine and scim-kmfl-imengine. Does this scheme works for you in all QT apps as well (incl. non-native ones, e.g. linux-opera and skype)? (Note: there's nothing unusual with my system, 6.2-RELEASE, Xfce environment, all up-to-date, and I do all tests in empty homedir to avoid possible collisions with old ~/.scim, ~/.adobe, etc. settings.) Never mind, I just shared what works for me -- let it stay in the archives. Maybe I'm alone in experiencing this SCIM (mis-)behaviour. If someone else on this list sees the same, I hope we'll hear about it. > and I could not understand the reason why changing XMODIFIER to > @im=XIM does the trick. In my case, it does the trick because @im=XIM obviously doesn't prevent SCIM from working normally in GTK environment, and still allows GTK_IM_MODULE to be replaced with "xim" and XMODIFIER itself with "@im=SCIM" when launching acroread7 (and skype, etc.). -- Nikola Lečić :: Никола Лечић _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
