Comment 1 Hisao Taguchi 2013-02-07 15:11:18 UTC
In Fedora 18 release note, it mentioned that 
$HOME/.xinputrc has been moved to $HOME/.config/imsettings/xinputrc.
I checked this file but I cannot find it in my Fedora 18 environment.
So, I entered the following commnad.

$> ln -s /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/ibus.conf $HOME/.config/imsettings/xinputrc

This solved my problem.
I think this settings should automatically be done in Fedora 18.
So I think this is a bug and this should be fixed.
Thank you.
