After login again, the input method goes to blank again.

My previous comment has figured out the bug. It is because the
~/.xinput.d/en_US link. Since my home directory is made under jaunty, the
link pointed to scim-bridge which is not installed defaultly in karmic. It
seems that language-selector can't handle this
situation automatically.  After unlinking ~/.xinput.d/en_US manually, the
language-selector create a new link pointed to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/ibus.
Then, everything is ok after relogin.
