So what happens right now? If you try to activate SCIM it doesn't work?
The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the issue if it is still present. Since there haven't been any updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in our current OS release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to CANTFIX, however if you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora Core release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem, please feel free to provide the information requested above, and reopen the report. Thank you in advance. (this message is mass message)
hi, The SCIM cannot be actived after the screen being locked. So if trying to input some "leave messages", you only can input english I think. But it's just a "be blessed with a double portion of good fortune" I think. So, if this can be implemented, it will be good. If cannot, it's not bad.
Still a problem for gnome-screensaver-2.20.0-10.fc8: only English input is available.
Not an easy fix, I fear. Most likely the problem is that scim's window doesn't get raised over the screensaver window. Fixing this may need changes to the screensaver extension.
Hmm I tested with uim and that works fine. So looks like this is a scim issue.
note we don't use the screensaver extension...
It seems that gtk_im_context doesn't receive key events from the GtkTextView. I don't know what's the different between screensaver and normal gtk applications.
Created attachment 296304 [details] Patch from Wu Peng. hi, here is a patch from Wu Peng. phuang, can you help me to verify and test it? Thanks.
Please set environment variable: export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
I just tested the patch with scim-bridge & scim im module. It can not fix this problem. I checked the code of im-scim im module. It seems that gnome-screensaver does not set right focused widget to im context.

Nice. Can phuang check it again?
I tested the patches. scim can work now. Thanks Wu Peng. scim was fixed in version 1.4.7-15. Also fixed scim-bridge in version 0.4.15-1.
