Yes, I rebooted the box after removing scim and it didn't make difference. The jvm problems have been there for a long time. I first noticed the conflict between matlab/jvm and the visual effect which makes blank matlab windows. Then I set the matlab_java to sun jre and also the awt_toolkit to Mtoolkit. Somehow these two settings do not play together nicely. So I keep the awt_toolkit setting which fix the blank window problem. Now the keyboard quit sometimes on matlab and it is pretty random. BTW, this problem exists on 9.04 too.
I did not have the idle problem or at least it was really really rare or it does not get many chances to be idle.
