Your settings look OK and not significantly different from mine. You didn’t list your value of XMODIFIERS though! OpenOffice apparently always uses XIM when OpenOffice_org-kde is used, i.e. with a wrong value of XMODIFIERS it will not work. With OpenOffice_org-gnome, it uses the GTK input module, i.e. the value of GTK_IM_MODULE is important than, the value of XMODIFIERS is relevant in that case only if GTK_IM_MODULE=xim. Examples: 1) with OpenOffice_org-kde: XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM oowriter -> input works XMODIFIERS=nonsense oowriter -> input does not work. (the values of QT_IM_MODULE and QT_IM_SWITCHER don’t matter) 2) with OpenOffice_org-gnome: GTK_IM_MODULE=scim oowriter -> input works GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge oowriter -> input works (value of XMODIFIERS doesn’t matter) XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM GTK_IM_MODULE=xim oowriter -> input works XMODIFIERS=nonsense GTK_IM_MODULE=xim oowriter -> input does not work. To be able to use XIM, this process needs to be running /usr/lib64/scim-1.0/scim-launcher -d -c socket -e socket -f x11 but this is started automatically when your X-session starts and it *is* running in your case according ot comment #4. (/usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64 in your case, I tested on a 64bit system but that doesn’t make any difference). -- 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.
