Well why do you want to kill ibus anyway? The above is what it does, it handles you keyboard layout and input methods so if you kill it of course that will break. ibus is installed by default with the Xfce pattern, if you don't want to use it you can of course deinstall it and set the keyboard layout per-user in the Xfce Keyboard settings or system-wide via the YaST "System Keyboard Layout" module but you will loose input methods. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
