No compose characters possible with asian language setting

Hello! I'm currently using SuSE 9.0 pro for both german and japanese input. This works fine so far, by setting the variables LC_CTYPE to ja_JP.UTF-8 and LANG to de_DE.UTF-8, but nevertheless I experienced a problem: With the LC_CTYPE set to japanese and an input method running (currently kinput2), I cannot type european language compose characters any more - at least the ones I used to produce with two sequent keystrokes ( ´ and e for é for example). The rest of my (german) keyboard layout works all fine, and with LC_CTYPE set to german, é's, à's, ô's, etc pose no problem, but then, of course, I cannot input japanese... This problem seems also to be existent for other language settings that use an input method, I tried it out with a friend who uses chinese input (also on SuSE 9.0 pro). We (my friend and I) are currently writing an article about asian language input with StarOffice/OOo, so we would really appreciate any help or hint concerning this problem. Thanks. Marcel Boeing

[opensuse-m17n] Strange behavior of SCIM-Anthy
by Satoru Matsumoto 25 Jul '07

25 Jul '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 SCIM-Anthy behaves suspiciously in MozillaFirefox after playing back Flash Movies. [Environments, in which I confirmed reproductions] - - openSUSE 10.2 i386/x86_64 - - SUSE Linux 10.1 i386 - - MozillaFirefox, flash-player and scim/anthy related packages are all updated with packages in 'Build Service' repositories. [How to reproduce] 1. Play back Flash movies -- for example, YouTube -- in Firefox. 2. Open a new tab and open a URL which includes writable textarea. 3. Launch SCIM-Anthy and input some words in Japanese. 4. Press Space key for Kana/Kanji conversion. Then you can see strange behaviors -- for example, inputed words suddenly disappear. I don't know what this is caused by, but I found a workaround by using scim-bridge. [Workaround] 1. Download scim-bridge from the site below, then build and install normally. # I didn't add any options when I configured. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=108454&package_id=185… 2. Add a line below to /usr/lib/firefox/firefox.sh. export GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge 3. Restart Firefox. ...You may need to execute # gtk-query-immodules-2.0 > /etc/opt/gnome/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules between 1. and 2. procedure, but I don't know exactly this procedure is necessary or not. [Related Links -- Sorry, Japanese] http://forum.ubuntulinux.jp/viewtopic.php?id=191 http://homepage2.nifty.com/shibatama/scim-bridge/ To Mike Fabian: If you can reproduce and confirm this, why don't you add scim-bridge package to M17N repository? regards, - -- □●□ _/_/_/ To be Happy! _/_/_/ □□● _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto _/_/ ●●● _/ helios_reds(a)gmx.net _/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGHwgcXnHIfHE6+z0RAgU7AJ0QWnkMDNj8jm5Z5+9HwdkaLn3bAACgiGf1 4SjjwpNPzJyvOvM9YO4XIqc= =rsTo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+help(a)opensuse.org
