RE: SCIM, (ar/heb); and possible problem in SCIM setup
Hello, Do you mean scim-m17n plus requirements is enough? I use Suse 9.1. My system tells me I need m17n-lib for scim-m17n, and m17n-lib needs (it says) "libanthy.so.0" and "libanthydic.so.0". Where could I find those? Or what are their equivalents in the suse m17n package lists? And, as I have the honour of talking to the SCIM author himself (if I'm correct), I have a little question. I opened the scim-setup, and when I took a look at "Current Config Module"; I clicked the arrow next to "socket" just to take a look, although I guess "socket" is the only thing I have available there (?). Then it says, "Current Config Module has been changed to socket." although I didn't (want to) change anything. It has an "OK"-button, and if i click it, it doesn't go away (it keeps popping up). It keeps hanging there for a while even if I log out or shut down the system. Did I make a mistake, is it a bug, or did I fail to install something? Beside that, SCIM works perfectly, so it's not an actual problem, if I just don't touch this "Current Config Module". Maybe it's because of Suse 9.1? (I could upgrade to 9.3, but there have been discussions about Korean not working perfectly yet with SCIM on 9.3 (is this still the case?) and Korean is what we most need. Thank you; and, I'll try to put hebrew and arabic in SCIM too.

Yes.
I use Suse 9.1.
The scim-m17n etc. packages included on your SuSE 9.1 CDs/DVD are a bit old though, for example there was no M17N-t-latn-pre input method available at that time. I recommend to update to the packages you can find in ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/m17n/9.1/
My system tells me I need m17n-lib for scim-m17n, and m17n-lib needs (it says) "libanthy.so.0" and "libanthydic.so.0".
Install the "anthy" package from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/m17n/9.1/.
(I could upgrade to 9.3, but there have been discussions about Korean not working perfectly yet with SCIM on 9.3 (is this still the case?)
No, it SCIM should work even better for Korean on SuSE 9.3 because
scim-hangul has been updated.
I think nobody said that SCIM had problems with Korean on SuSE Linux
9.3.
