https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235044 ------- Comment #4 from mfabian@novell.com 2007-02-26 10:36 MST ------- swyear chen> It should work Yes, this should work. swyear chen> Isn't this a bug? It still works for me. I just tried with export INPUT_METHOD=kinput2 in ~/.profile and got the "kinput2" input method instead of my usual default "scim". I have 2 ideas why it doesn't work for you: 1) could there be a bug in your oxim/gcin input method start scripts? Maybe they fail? If that is the case, you should see it in .xsession-errors. Can you please attach ~/.xsession-errors so I can check? 2) You write export INPUT_METHOD="gcin" in ~/.profile but your shell doesn't read ~/.profile on login. For example, if a file ~/.bash_login exists, bash will read that when a login shell is started (see the bash man-page). Or maybe you are not using bash but some other shell? Which one? You have to set and export the environment variable INPUT_METHOD in a file read by your shell when a login shell is started. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
