Mike Fabian, brave man, soldiers on:
login to KDE, open a terminal and type
locale
What is the output?
peter@linux:~> locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=JA_jp.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= peter@linux:~>
Then type
echo $XMODIFIERS
What is the output here?
Aha, interesting. No output. Nothing. Blank line.
Now check whether canna is running:
mike@kibou:~$ pidof cannaserver 1493 mike@kibou:~$
If canna is running, "pidof cannaserver" should return the process id, if not it returns nothing.
It's process id 901.
Check whether kinput2 is running:
mike@kibou:~$ pidof kinput2 1859 mike@kibou:~$
It's not running. Aha.
Try to get some more information about canna and it's clients:
I'd guess that this is superfluous -- that if kinput2 isn't running, this explains everything. But anyway for completeness' sake:
peter@linux:~> cannastat Connected to unix Canna Server (Ver. 3.5) No clients peter@linux:~>
