Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

* What led up to the situation?

My work and school environment requires me to write document in Japanese
language for which I use ibus. Currently everything works perfect if I use ibus
with the gtk panel but being a KDE user I wanted to use instead kimpanel that
looks better integrated with the KDE plasma panel.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?

I installed kimpanel and started ibus-daemon with the following command:

  ibus-daemon --xim -p /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kimpanel-ibus-panel

I tried several options for the ibus-daemon, setting it when starting KDE,
running it directly in a terminal, etc...

I also have the corresponding environment variables:

export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

* What was the outcome of this action?

The kimpanel shows as a pencil icon and does nothing on click. I cannot change
the input method using any keys and of course I cannot input Japanese text on
any application.

Interstingly if I click in an edit box in chromium the pencil icon changes to a
keyboard icon followed by the ibus *i* icon. But still I cannot input any
Japanese and clicking on the icons only show information without doing anything
else.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected to see the input method with all its options in the plasma panel and
be able to write Japanese text. 

I shall mention again that using the default gtk panel works as expected but
looks extremely ugly inside the KDE plasma panel.
