sorry for another question. I try use japanese on console: I installed fbiterm, canna. When I run fbiterm I can't start "canuum -u" canna display message: "Can't open ttyp" and nothing more.
I have no idea what I should do, please help.
It's a permission problem of /dev/ttyp*. Per default the permissions
of these devices are set so that a regular user cannot access them.
You will see that canuum works as root.
If you want to use canuum as regular user, you could make the
/dev/ttyp* devices accessible to a regular user by changing
the permissions or adding the user to the tty group.
But I don't recommend this!
Actually I don't recommend to use canuum at all.
Canuum is very buggy and it doesn't work with UTF-8 anyway, only
EUC-JP. I.e. it will only work in
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.eucJP fbiterm
It is not really useful as an input method for fbiterm.
Currently the only Japanese input method I can recommend for use in
fbiterm is to use Emacs or XEmacs and one of the Japanese input
methods they support. For example Canna or Anthy. If you need a shell
you can use
M-x shell
Uim has an input method which can work in screen and you can run
screen in fbiterm. This input method is not yet available on SuSE
Linux but I'll package it soon.
