 Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2007 8:47 pm Post subject: Couldn't start scim |
 |
|
Hi all,
Sorry I'll have to write in English as scim doesn't work firefox right now, when I try to start it this is what I get: | Code: | # scim
Smart Common Input Method 1.4.5
Launching a SCIM process with x11...
Loading socket Config module ...
Creating backend ...
Loading x11 FrontEnd module ...
SCIM has exited abnormally.
|
The ./configure part of the emerge script says X11 Frontend is installed. I could run scim on a few applications such as gedit or pidgin, but not across the board (it used to be ok on my last laptop with similar hardware and setting a few months ago). My .xinitrc is like this: | Code: | # cat .xinitrc
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM
export GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
export QT_IM_MODULE="scim"
scim -d
exec gnome-session
|
Why could this be happening? any suggestions?

或者試下在 模擬文字終端下用 中文區域locale 啟動 firefox 和 scim：
| Code: |
$ LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 firefox
$ LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 scim

加上
LC_CTYPE=<your_language>
当然了<your_language>要被替换成真正的locale

hey dritan,
I've been using fcitx, it works flawlessly across gtk/qt apps (I was having problem with scim). You could give it a try 
1. emerge fcitx
2. edit /etc/env.d/99local add the following lines:
| Code: |
XMODIFIERS="@im=fcitx"
XIM=fcitx
XIM_PROGRAM=fcitx
|
3. add "fcitx &" to your DE session
4. logout and login again, ctrl + space to activate it
HTH

I had the same problem (and I use SCIM), and this was the answer in my case: in you rc file for X (usually $HOME/.xinitrc) you should have these lines:
| Code: | export ...
export XMODIFIER="@im=fcitx"
exec <...>
... |
The problem is in variable XMODIFIER without S!
现在我可写中文！ |
