After set ``` export XMODIFIERS="@im=ibus" ``` ibus works with xterm, emacs and chromium!
In fact I wrote ``` export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus ``` in .bashrc as suggested in some threads, but I forgot I was in zsh environment... Now everything works fine. Thank you very much! ibus-el doesn't work for ibus 1.5+. As far as i recall, emacs24 works with ibus1.5 without further configuration like ibus-el.
