This problem still exists in Feisty Herd 3 (kubuntu). Using the following workaround, I can get it to work in all applications except Open Office:
sudo touch /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup sudo chmod 646 /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup echo 'export XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"' >> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup echo 'export GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"' >> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup echo 'export XIM_PROGRAM="scim -d"' >> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup echo 'export QT_IM_MODULE="scim"' >> /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup sudo chmod 644 /etc/X11/Xsession.d/74custom-scim_startup For some reason, only OpenOffice doesn't even allow me to change to Japanese input. Copy/Pasting Japanese characters works though. -- [Dapper] language-support-"any CJK language" doesn't set up a way to input this language with scim if the session doesn't correspond to this particular CJK (Chinese, Japanese or Korean) language https://launchpad.net/bugs/34282 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
