GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 588574
SCIM not working anymore, impossible to type Asian scripts
Last modified: 2011-01-25 20:44:45 UTC
Please describe the problem: upgraded from 0.3.x version to 0.5.2. Since then, SCIM is not working anymore on gnote, i.e. usual ctrl+space do not activate the input method. Steps to reproduce: 1. install SCIM (and configure it) and set a preferred input method (russian, hindi, pinin) 2. Check that ctrl+space switches input method ON/OFF on apps such as gedit or gnome-terminal and thus non latin characters are writable 3. try ctrl-space on gnote Actual results: SCIM is not activated, thus only latin characters are typed Expected results: switch on/off SCIM input method, thus permitting typing of asian or non-latin characters Does this happen every time? yes Other information: Seemed to work fine on 0.3.x version. Problem experienced in a debian testing/sid environment
Confirmed: present in 0.5.3-1.fc11 (fedora 11) Dealbreaker for everyone who doesn't use the latin character set.
Gnote 0.6.2 does not have this problem in Debian squeeze/sid (or even backported locally).
Is this problem still present with more recent versions of Gnote, such as 0.6.* and 0.7.*? Please respond, if the problem is still present. If there's no response in a week or so, I'll consider this bug obsolete and will close it. Thanks.
Closing as obsolete.
