Ming and Arne: Thank your for the quick answers.

Arne: OK, I installed the patch (or, more precisely: I added your two lines to my apt sources and then the automatic updater proposed to install new versions of libx11-6 and libx11-data, which I accepted)

Some quick testing shows that I can probably use my linux (xubuntu 7.10) with scim now! Thunderbird does not get blocked every 2 minutes any more. Thanks!
I'll tell you if old or new problems occur.

Just a strange thing: Unlike other updates, the ppa versions keep showing in the automatic updater: "Other updates", 2 entries, both wanting to "upgrade" to the now installed version:
- "libx11-6, X11 client-side library, from version 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu5~ppa1 to 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu5~ppa1 (Size: 592 KB)"
- "libx11-data, X11 client-side library, from version 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu5~ppa1 to 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu5~ppa1 (Size: 201 KB)"

Is this something to worry about? Should I just delete the two entries from the apt sources list? Forgive me my beginner questions, and tell me to go somewhere else if this is not the right place to ask them :-)

Have a good day
Christoph
