[Bug 335944] New: Some Khmer vowels did not display
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335944 Summary: Some Khmer vowels did not display Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: khoemsokhem@khmeros.info QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other I have installed openSUSE 10.3 and chose KDE as desktop. After finished installing it, then I try to type some sentence in Khmer and noticed that some vowels did not display as i expect. but in openSUSE 10.2 those vowels display correctly. I tried to copy all fonts in openSUSE 10.2 to replace all fonts in openSUSE 10.3 but still the problem with those vowels.

Could you please write a document under 10.2 and open it in 10.3 in order to test if it is really a display problem. -- 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.

In my openSUSE 10.3 can display these vowels well. I think this is not a display problem, Because I opened documents under 10.2 in 10.3 and all documents can display these vowels well. -- 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.

I encounter the problem with typing in all applications in openSUSE 10.3 such as: OpenOffice, KDE applications (kwrite,...).

This bug is realted to some Khmer vowels which are special because they are not defined in Unicode. What happens is that you need to create two characters from one keystroke to get these vowels. The solution in the past was to change the compose rules in Xorg to make this happen. It looks like that during the transition to newer Xorg versions this was lost somehow. Please look at this old bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=143348 and to this not yet solved bug at Xorg: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5706 I don't know if the compose files still exist but maybe it is enough to just add some lines again for Khmer. It is not related to display nor to any application. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335944#c10 --- Comment #10 from Mike Fabian <mfabian@novell.com> 2007-10-24 08:51:40 MST --- The Compose table on openSUSE 10.3 still contains the additions for Khmer: mfabian@magellan:/tmp/bugzilla/bug-335944$ tail /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose <dead_diaeresis> <Cyrillic_u> : "у̏" <dead_doubleacute> <Cyrillic_u> : "у̏" <dead_diaeresis> <Cyrillic_U> : "У̏" <dead_doubleacute> <Cyrillic_U> : "У̏" <U17ff> : "ាំ" <U17fe> : "ោះ" <U17fd> : "េះ" <U17fc> : "ុំ" <U17fb> : "ុះ" mfabian@magellan:/tmp/bugzilla/bug-335944$ Now, when I test with xterm and do: XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM xterm then typing the keysym 0x010017ff (U+17FF), then I get only one character inserted. However, if I do: XMODIFIERS=@im=local xterm and type the same, I get two characters inserted. I think the reason is the hardcoded compose table in SCIM, if SCIM is used, the hardcoded compose table in SCIM is used as well. And this doesn’t have the additions for Khmer. As a workaround, you can avoid using SCIM. For example, you can set INPUT_METHOD="none" in /etc/sysconfig/language. Then, /etc/X11/xim.d/none will be sourced by default when the X-session starts up and this contains: mfabian@magellan:/tmp/bugzilla/bug-335944$ cat /etc/X11/xim.d/none echo "Dummy input method \"none\" (do not use any input method at all by default)" export XMODIFIERS=@im=local # use "Compose" export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim export QT_IM_SWITCHER=imsw-none # disable input method switching in Qt export QT_IM_MODULE=xim return 0 mfabian@magellan:/tmp/bugzilla/bug-335944$ I.e. "Compose" will then be used by default instead of SCIM. -- 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.

If SCIM is installed, it is used by default unless you change the default by editing /etc/sysconfig/language or creating your own, custom ~/.xim file to startup an input method. -- 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.

This would make sure that there is no difference in the Compose support of scim and the Compose support of X11 on the system the scim package was built for (At least not as long as the user edits /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose manually). -- 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.

It appeared that there were missing entries for Khmer locales in two files: /usr/share/X11/locale/locale.dir /usr/share/X11/locale/compose.dir In the first file, we added these two lines: en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE km_KH.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE: km_KH.UTF-8 In the second file, these two lines have been added: en_US.UTF-8/Compose km_KH.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8/Compose: km_KH.UTF-8 So the Compose file was there, and everything worked when you had your $LANG environment variable on en_US.UTF8 (or whatever $LANG you used). When the $LANG was set to km_KH no compose file would be used since it was missing from the compose.dir file. -- 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.
