Hi again,

...

You mean

export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM emacs &

...

and then "Control+Space" doesn't work? Works >fine for me and many others.

it didn't work, nothing at all happened, except that emacs started. (actually, once or twice the first few letters I typed turned red, but that was all) I tried launching scim and scim -d after and before the above, but it returned the same error: failure to find/load "socket server module" in both cases. I noticed that my .xim is long, complex (if clauses etc) and possibly outdated. Can that be the reason? Gustaf
