Comment 5 for bug 106087

Hi Ming Hua!

I can confirm that I have the same problem. I'm using Xubuntu 7.04 (feisty) with a 2.6.20-16-generic kernel, an XFCE desktop, gaim 2.0.0beta6 and I'm using SCIM for typing Chinese while using an English system. I can't type in gaim at all - not even the shortcuts to change the input method work here (Firefox seems to be fine though...)

> echo $GTK_IM_MODULE
xim

> grep "/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic" /etc/scim/config
/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic = false

> grep "/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic" ~/.scim/config
/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic = false

> im-switch -l
Your input method setup under en_NZ locale as below.
=======================================================
The configuration "/home/matthias/.xinput.d/en_NZ" is defined as a link pointing to
scim_xim
This private configuration supersedes the system wide default.
=======================================================
The system wide default is pointed by "/etc/alternatives/xinput-all_ALL" .
xinput-all_ALL - status is auto.
 link currently points to default
scim - priority 0
scim-immodule - priority 0
default - priority 10
none - priority 0
Current `best' version is default.
=======================================================
The available input method configuration files are:
default none scim scim-chewing scim-hangul scim-hangul_xim scim-immodule scim-pinyin scim_xim th-xim
