There are probably other methods, some of which may be easier / simpler,
but what I'd do is build something around SCIM - probably starting with
the scim-pinyin package.

I could (potentially) give you detailed step-by-step for setting it up
in my environment, but since your environment is not mine (for starters,
I use E16 as a window manager, and no desktop environment at all), my
directions would not reliably be correct for you.
