I think we should not delay the Emacs pretest for this.

The problem's behavior looks like every other application receive input
from the XIM server, but Emacs receive keyboard input directly, the XIM
is bypassed.
keyboard -- XIM -- application
keyboard -- Emacs
Are you saying that XIM can't ever work with Emacs?

Yes, that's what I mean.
That might be ok, since Emacs has its own input methods. But it would
be good to offer the possibility of using Emacs with XIM. And I thought
that this DID work.

This bug is quite subtle and hard to trace. The problem is that other
applications collaborate with gnome-settings-daemon quite well except
Emacs, and you can activate XIM in Emacs with no difficulty if
gnome-settings-daemon is not running.

If Emacs _did_ cooperate, it would screw up common Emacs bindings. That
isn't a problem for many Gnome apps, because they barely use any
keybindings, but Emacs obviously uses keybindings very heavily, and this
particular keybinding is extremely common

The developers of the gnome-settings-daemon should not have chosen a
character that is so important for Emacs. Can you tell me their names
and email addresses, so I can talk with them about this?
I have talked to some of the initial reporters of
This bug has nothing to do with keybindings. Whatever hotkey is used
for activate the input method, they won't function in Emacs if the
gnome-settings-daemon is running, evenif you select the XIM panel with
mouse, that means you won't find a way to input chinese with XIM in
There's a lot of report from chinese Emacs community that Emacs conflicts
with gnome-settings-daemon.
`C-SPC' is widely accepted as the hot-key to activate XIM input method
such as SCIM or fcitx in chinese linux community. But when
gnome-settings-daemon is running, `C-SPC' is swallowed by emacs
