I see input methods for Japanese which allow me four different alternativess, for so-called simplified Chinese which allow me five alternatives, for so-called traditional Chinese 17 alternatives, for Korean four alternatives, for «Other» three alternatives, and for inputs using Latin letters, one alternative. > The responses to the above queries might give some indication what is > going wrong where. > > Regards. H.S. Thanks for your response ! As I mentioned above, SCIM was working in OOo and Picasa a month or so ago, and still works very well in a Gnome text editor or in Gmail. I've been considering uninstalling and then re-installing Ubuntu Hardy to see if that would resolve the problem, but as I have some 1939 packages installed, I'd really like to avoid that arduous process if possible. Besides, another bird, an intrepid Ibex this time 'round, is due to be released in a couple of months.... Henri
