Guest chris_99 Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hi. How can I make SCIM work with KDE and OpenOffice? Currently, it works fine with (gtk??)-Apps like gqviw and mozilla. There is a panel-applet visible in kicker. But I cannot activate the Chinese input for KDE-apps like kedit. I am using de_DE.UTF-8 in my LANG. Since SCIM works with some apps, this should be OK. I am using Mandrake 9.2 with almost everything updated to 10.0 or 10.1CE. I updated scim from cooker to: libscim0-0.99.9-1mdk libscim-chinese0-0.4.2-2mdk scim-0.99.9-1mdk scim-chinese-0.4.2-2mdk scim-tables-0.4.3-1mdk I also tried "skim" from Cooker, but I cannot make it work at all... Any ideas? chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Maybe this helps - for 10.1: Internationalization in Mandrakelinux 10.1 a mini guide to SCIM/UIM http://www.h4.dion.ne.jp/~apricots/mandrake/miniguide.html _____________ jonas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chris_99 Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Thanks, jonas. It's a wonderful guide. Skim works now seamlessly... with gtk-apps :sad: I think there is a problem with QT and the SCIM engine. Starting a KDE-app from konsole gives me the following message: QInputContext: no input method context available I tried to add QT_IM_SWITCHER=imsw-multi QT_IM_MODULE=scim before or after GTK_IM_MODULE=scim in my ~/.i18n. But a echo $QT_IM_SWITCHER or echo $QT_IM_MODULE just gives me an emty line. GTK_IM_MODULE is fine. It seems that the QT_IM_* are reset somewhere else again (or not read at all). Does SCIM not work (any more) with QT? Is sth. broken in Community or Cooker? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Sorry, chris - can't help you with your problem. Saw on the board are some members from china and .jp - hopefully they know a fix. ________ jonas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chris_99 Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 I think it has sth to do with "qtimm". Maybe there's some problem with that and KDE and / or Mandrake. but I did not figure it out yet :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
