No compose characters possible with asian language setting
by akimbo337＠gmx.de 16 Nov '09

Hello! I'm currently using SuSE 9.0 pro for both german and japanese input. This works fine so far, by setting the variables LC_CTYPE to ja_JP.UTF-8 and LANG to de_DE.UTF-8, but nevertheless I experienced a problem: With the LC_CTYPE set to japanese and an input method running (currently kinput2), I cannot type european language compose characters any more - at least the ones I used to produce with two sequent keystrokes ( ´ and e for é for example). The rest of my (german) keyboard layout works all fine, and with LC_CTYPE set to german, é's, à's, ô's, etc pose no problem, but then, of course, I cannot input japanese... This problem seems also to be existent for other language settings that use an input method, I tried it out with a friend who uses chinese input (also on SuSE 9.0 pro). We (my friend and I) are currently writing an article about asian language input with StarOffice/OOo, so we would really appreciate any help or hint concerning this problem. Thanks. Marcel Boeing

Hi I am looking for a writing pad for handwriting recognition of Chinese characters under linux. I recently bought an PenPower Crystal Junior Writing Pad but so far I have not managed to get it working. Does anyone know supported writing pads? Or can someone help me to install the one I have? Cheers Florian

[opensuse-m17n] apel-xemacs: Drop package since it's in xemacs-packages
by Andreas Jaeger 03 Sep '09

03 Sep '09

apel-xemacs is part of the xemacs-packages tarball and therefore I suggest to drop it. If we do that, please add a proper obsolete to xemacs-packages and we should drop the currently not applied disable-apel patch (don't know when it was disabled). Could somebody with sufficient authority do this in the openSUSE BuildService for Factory, please? I also fixed xemacs and xemacs-packages to build and submitted to the devel project. Please test and accept my changes and push them to openSUSE:Factory.
