I can still input normally into firefox but not into xterm (or xterm-based mutt) nor into emacs.
Whenever I try to input something there, I get a string of plain 7bit characters, including control characters, e.g. "C$" for "ä", "C6" for "ö", "C<" for "ü", "g" + bell sound for "睡眠", "*c" + line deletion for "かな".
It is now alright. I can input multiple languages, including zh and ja, into xterm and emacs as well as everything else. I had to remove the scim-bridge package. Reports like scim-bridge経由で問題なく入力できている状態 http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-ja/2007-10/msg00046.html give the impression that some people may not be able to input Japanese without this package. The docs didn't tell me anything about what scim-bridge is good for, and I don't know how this package, which seems to be dangerous for some people and vital for others, found its way into my installation -- I don't remember having selected it. -- Hartmut Pilch http://a2e.de/phm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+help@opensuse.org
