I experience this bug also on Feisty. I really would like to have data.entry commands working.
I noticed that this occurs on my laptop (Feisty), but not on my desktop that is running a slightly non-upgraded version of Dapper (no ADSL at home, too lazy). I have some intuition it could be related to SCIM or something like that. Attached is output of ps aux | grep scim The desktop has no scim application running as far as I can tell. Someone on the #R channel suggested this could be related to some setting in my .bashrc or .bash_profile (EDITOR) but other users on my laptop face the same problem, also if I create new user. ** Attachment added: "output of ps aux | grep scim" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5579874/scim-grep -- unable to open X Input Method https://launchpad.net/bugs/48168 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
