Thanks for the additional information and sorry that this feature did not made it into edgy.
My bzr branch at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/language- selector/ubuntu/ has a new checkbox "Enable input methods" that can be used to globally enable scim input even for non-CJK languages. When feisty opens I will immediately upload it. If people are interessted in testing this new feature I can build debs for edgy (maybe dapper too) fromthe repository. Cheers, Michael ** Changed in: scim (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress Target: ubuntu-6.06 => None -- [Dapper] language-support-"any CJK language" doesn't set up a way to input this language with scim if the session doesn't correspond to this particular CJK (Chinese, Japanese or Korean) language https://launchpad.net/bugs/34282 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
