Summary|xorg: compose table not loaded |scim: abnormal keyboard input when English is
| |disabled
--- Comment #8 from Jan Engelhardt 2008-07-01 11:47:53 MDT ---
The compose support scim provides is good to go... but here is how to reproduce
the "bug":
Have scim, scim-anthy and anthy installed. Open scim-setup, go to "IMEngine >
Global Settings", disable the entire "Other" category (which contains "English"
and "RAW Code"). Save, and restart X and/or scim.
(SCIM by default is not 'active' and one uses Ctrl-Shift-Ins to toggle it; but
the daemon runs indeed.)
So, having disabled the Other category, English layout still works, but without
Compose table and without Ctrls_toggle (see bug #405237). In fact, SCIM even
offering English while one can "deactivate" it (by means of C-S-Ins) is really
confusing because you have
- the English mapping when SCIM is inactive (and I thought that this is the
normal Xorg keymap)
- the English mapping when SCIM is active
In fact, there are two ways to switch from, say, Japanese to English - either
deactivating SCIM by means of C-S-Ins, or by switching to the English method
using Ctrl-Alt-Down (I think that was the default).
