Description Eugene Teo (Security Response) 2007-05-29 04:14:36 UTC

Description of problem:
When I click the scim panel applet, nothing appears. I can't configure it nor
select the input method.

When I try to run a scim-aware app, i.e. pidgin, pressing ctrl+space has no
effect. Not even when I run "GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge gedit".

This is a fresh rawhide install since this morning. I did not do any
configurations on scim, except to run it automatically using gnome-sessions when
I start logging in. I compared the list of rpms with cchance, and we have got
matching rpm versions. It worked previously, with an earlier version of rawhide.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[eteo@kerndev ~]$ rpm -qa | grep scim
scim-anthy-1.2.2-3.fc7

or
1. Run "GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge gedit", but nothing appears when I press
ctrl+space
  
Actual results:

For a non-Asian desktop you need to activate scim with im-chooser.
It's in the release notes, but all rather confusing. :-/
