What is your version of scim? Please post the result of the following result: $rpm -qa scim* By the way, please try ibus instead, by using im-chooser to switch to it. ibus is now the default input method framework of Fedora. $ rpm -q scim scim-1.4.11-1.fc15.x86_64 I managed to "solve" my problem by doing: imsettings-switch IBus But back to my original question. How do I clear all old settings if this happens in the future? Obviously the imsetting was not in .gconf, .gconfd, .config, .local, .cache, .gnome2 since I cleaned those. Especially with gnome 3 there are tons of changes and lots of them aren't change:able from "settings" anymore. I could find "input method selector" until I knew it was there, in Other... I think the imsettings config is in ~/.xinputrc. scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15 Package scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-3354/scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15 then log in and leave karma (feedback). I have upgraded to F16 and I'm not using scim anymore but ibus. Thanks, I see, just maintenance update. scim-python-0.1.13rc1-12.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Description of problem: I have a Fedora system that I have upgraded from roughly F10->F15 via every single intermediary release. After a resent update the system became almost unusable because of timeouts happening everytime focus is changed. The error that loop look like this. An IOException at scim_bridge_messenger_receive_message (): Connection reset by peer Failed to receive messages at scim_bridge_client_read_and_dispatch () An IOException at scim_bridge_client_change_focus () An IOException occurred at scim_bridge_client_imcontext_focus_in () Loading simple Config module ...

Failed to initialize scim Failed to allocate the agent. Exitting... Failed to establish the connection: No such file or directory This problem does not occur if I create a new user and log in as it so it is localized to my main user. I have used scim a long time ago, but it stopped working and doing it's magic a long time ago as well. How do I reset gnome, scim, the session, maybe abrt to default settings? In the olden days (RedHat 7-8, not fedora) there used to be a dialog when you had upgraded to remove old crusty settings, but that seems to be long gone.
