I submitted a report for what I think is the same bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-m17n/+bug/886568 Even though this bug is marked a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880876 I'm pretty sure it isn't just a Unity issue. I have been encountering this problem when using XFCE (Xubuntu 11.10). Following Sergej's comment (#24), I decided to try out fujiwarat's change, https://github.com/fujiwarat/ibus/commit/a8c21dd867f4a9e1c37cae4f6509af1491c5fc96 And to answer Sergej's question, here's how I did it (not sure if this is the best way but it worked): # Fetch fujiwarat's latest code ~$ git clone https://github.com/fujiwarat/ibus.git # Get the source (from Precise) and extract it ~$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/ibus/ibus_1.4.0.orig.tar.gz ~$ wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/ibus/ibus_1.4.0-1ubuntu2.debian.tar.gz ~$ tar -zxvf ibus_1.4.0.orig.tar.gz ~$ cd ibus-1.4.0 ~/ibus-1.4.0$ tar -zxvf ../ibus_1.4.0-1ubuntu2.debian.tar.gz # Copy in the updated client/x11/main.c and build ~/ibus-1.4.0$ cp ../ibus/client/x11/main.c ./client/x11/main.c ~/ibus-1.4.0$ sudo apt-get build-dep ibus ~/ibus-1.4.0$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -tc -us -uc Assuming you have all the dependencies in place it should build ok. I installed all the generated deb files and logged out and back in. All the problems I had been encountering with ibus were then resolved (including a separate issue where the compose key had stopped working). So this seems to confirm that Sergej is right about the patch that fixes the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/840823 Title: Problem at typing latest letter.
