FYI, koffice suffers the same problem. IMO, this bug should be assigned to qt, as it is the immodule patch responsible. Disabling immodule makes things work again. Jose, you could try moving/renaming /usr/lib/qt-3.3/plugins/inputmethods to see if that helps. How could i disable the immodule? I try moving and renaming that directory and don't solve the problem :( The only way to completely disable immodule is to rebuild qt without the immodule patch. You could try the qt rpms from http://kde-redhat.sf.net/ which has immodule disabled (primarily due to this bug). Hi again, I have installed FC2 and the problem dissapear: Kernel 2.6.5-1.358 KDE 3.2.2-4 qt 3.3.2-2 and lyx 1.3.5-1.1 FYI, from qt's changelog: * Thu Jul 01 2004 Than Ngo <than> 1:3.3.2-10 - add immodule for Qt Looks like immodule wasn't added until later. Actually I have: Kernel 2.6.9-1.6_FC2, KDE 3.2.2.-8.FC2, qt-3.3.3-0.1 and lyx-1.3.5-1.1.fc2.dag. With those components works fine; maybe with KDE 3.3 fail? I doubt kde has anything to do with it as lyx is a qt-only program. Do you think that qt is the problem? Yes, qt and the immodule patch is the problem. That's what I've been saying the whole time. I don't know what is the immodule; On qt site don't speak about this problem or similar Sorry, here's a better link: http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/immodule-qt I have sent a mail to immodule-qt, explain the problem; waiting ... I've confirmed qt-3.3.3-15 still exhibits the same (bad) behavior. dead-keys do not function properly in either kword or lyx. One can at least copy-n-paste in accented characters into kword. Pasting accented characters into lyx generates bogus/garbage looking output. Can you try if: # export QT_IM_MODULE=simple before running the application helps? Created attachment 108181 [details]
bad accents on lyx
Don't function export qt.... see
Please redhat team (Ngo Than), what's happen? any solution? any ...? I got the qt package from the kde-redhat project from: ftp://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/3/stable/RPMS/qt-3.3.3-16.3.3.kde.i386.rpm After installing it, the accents in lyx are now working as expected. But I don't know if this will have any impact on other programs. May be on KDE? Well, I use gnome. Great! Works fine, by now. Thanks It look like we have to fix lyx. Please see: http://lists.freedesktop.org/arhives/immodule-qt/2004-December/000649.html We do not include lyx. Any pointer on upstream contacts, or anyone have tried to talk to the upstream about it? Fixed link: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/immodule-qt/2004-December/000649.html lyx is included in Fedora Extras. With the new version of qt package (3.3.3.-16.3.3) everything works fine. i think lyx needs to be fixed in this case! and Kazuki is willing to fix this problem in lyx. FYI, koffice is busted too. i have done the backport for koffice-1.3.5-3. It now fixes this problem. Please don't forget to update qt-3.3.4-4, which is required for this. Thanks Ngo, fabulous! |
