Arne, The problem with SCIM is that it only works on non-Thai locales. You may try it again under th_TH.UTF-8 locale to see the problem people reported here.
In fact, I have proposed a patch against libx11 in Freedesktop #16475 [1] to fix this. Just waiting for it to be checked-in. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to happen before Intrepid release. [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16475 Thai XIM also has some pending bugs with UTF-8 locale: it rejects all combining characters, as my previous work in Xlib assumed too much about the multi-byte strings. (Only TIS-620 locale was available at that time.) And another patch has been proposed in Freedesktop #12759 [2] for this. [2] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12759 And finally, a minor bug in Thai XIM: it stops filtering input sequences when NumLock/CapsLock is on, as reported, with proposed patch, in Freedesktop #12517 [3]. [3] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12517 All the three patches are against libx11. So, you can safely assign this bug to it, IMO. All the patches are tested in my custom debs. [4] And I would appreciate if they get into Intrepid in time, and if Ubuntu help polish and push them upstream.
