Openoffice is the only program that has any problems. Skype, pidgen,
term windows, Konsole, even gimp work perfectly.
So you use some Spanish keyboard with one of the SCIM IMEngines? If
this is so, then you probably have something like this in your
environment:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
GTK_IM_MODULE=scim
I had neither in my environment so I added them and there was a
change. The dead keys printed correctly but weren't dead. The same
with xim. I am seeing this on different laptops and one multiple
desktop keyboards. They are all runing KDE and the desktops are
running FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE and the laptop uptodate Current.
Please try GTK_IM_MODULE=xim. Switching among keyboards will be a bit
harder (SCIM keyboard icon and the actual keyboard will sometimes be
desynchronised when you change focus among windows), but this used to
solve OpenOffice.org deadkeys problem for me in the past.
If this doesn't help, you can try textproc/scim-bridge with
GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge.
Although I must add that the problem mainly disappeared when I switched
to openoffice.org-3-devel (currently running 3.1.20081024).
I'm going to give it a try because we have been using openoffice
since 1.x without problems and without having to learn about SCIM ;)
Nikola, you gave me a least common denominator idea. The the
computers, keyboards, versions of OpenOffice are all different, but
they are all running KDE. On my laptop, I have gnome installed and I
keep it up to date although I don't use it. I switched to gnome and
the same OpenOffice works perfectly.
Now I really don't know where to go. Gotta think about it.
Thanks for all your help. I feel that I'm getting closer.
