the problem with kde is that it uses qt and our qt3 does not contain 
the qt-im-module so the only way kde works with scim/skim is by using 
XIM and not qt. most kde-apps unfortunately don't know how to use XIM 
but try qt-im-module instead that is missing. 

some time ago, we tried to patch qt3 to include qt-im-module but it 
gave other problems... for now unfortunately there is no good 
solution for scim+kde in arch. the easiest would be of course when we 
have kde compiled against qt4 because qt4 provides qt-im-module 
built-in. now we have faced xorg7, we may think on working on qt4... 

i would suggest you to try to avoid kde apps, if you need scim input. 

hope this is fixed in some near future...

greetings,
Damir
