This is broken in xim as well.. very strangely we were getting size 0 when type greek characters? Either way, there is a branch with a fix for nux, and if you use ibus it'll work. Just need to test a few more things before a branch is pushed.

The pointer does not move at all, which means that it is not just an appearance problem, but there is no input at all of the character. The same applies when i try to use the "Execute command" field that appears when pressing the Alt+F2 keyboard shortcut. This has only to do wiith greek characters, as other characters that are not related to the keyboard layout (such as numerical characters, dots, comas, hyphens etc) can be typed normally regardless of the keyboard layout setting. ** Workaround ** In the terminal: im-config -n xim Then reboot!
