Description of problem: KDE 4.7.2 ibus with installed simpliedfied-chinese-support group is broken. Was working fine with Fedora 15. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ibus 1.4.0 How reproducible: select ibus-setup from the menu, and it seems to startup wonky. If I run it from the command line, it at least displays its icon in the system try. If I run it from the systems settings menu it doesn't display its icon. Steps to Reproduce: 1. login, select input method from KDE menu 2. Starts the input method ibus-setup program. 3. doesn't display its icon in the icon tray. Try using it with pinyin input, and CTRL SPACE works sporactally. Mostly never.) Actual results: Doesn't work. Expected results: Should display pinyin characters to pick from when CTRL-SPACE is selected. Additional info: KDE 4.7.2 Fedora 16 fresh install. Installed simplified chinese support group, which is bizarre as it isn't listed in grouplist, but is found in the documentation. Then installed ibus-pinyin. Worked fine in Fedora 15. -gc
I don't understand what is your problem.

Which do you mean, you installed ibus-pinyin by manual? or the Fedora installer installed ibus-pinyin with chinese support group? > 3. doesn't display its icon in the icon tray.

Did you log into the KDE session with zh_CN.UTF-8 locale? You could change the user locale with 'systemsettings' command. % locale Did you disable 'Customize active input methods' check button in 'Input Method' tab on ibus-setup GUI?
Created attachment 533433 [details] ibus lack of icon in systray Notice the blank spot next to the scissors...normally should have the ibus icon there. Can only get it too show up if I exit and start it up from the command line.
OK, I think you cannot show ibus icon when ibus is launched at xdg auto (KDE start time) but you can show the icon when you restart the ibus-daemon. It's a KDE issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 727806 ***
