OK, I have the 11-4-60 packages installed, am trying to do Japanese input in
English KDE, Fedora core 2:
rpm -qa |fgrep iiim
iiimf-client-lib-devel-11.4-60
iiimf-csconv-11.4-60
iiimf-le-canna-11.4-60
iiimf-client-lib-11.4-60
iiimf-x-11.4-60
iiimf-docs-11.4-60
iiimf-protocol-lib-devel-11.4-60
iiimf-gtk-11.4-60
iiimf-emacs-11.4-60
iiimf-protocol-lib-11.4-60
iiimf-server-11.4-60
My .i18n contains the following:
XIM=htt
processes running:
htt 2267 0.0 0.0 2472 324 ? S 23:25 0:00 /usr/sbin/htt
htt 2268 0.0 0.5 26000 2992 ? S 23:25 0:00 htt_server
-nodaemon
dmason 3135 0.0 0.2 5816 1348 ? S 23:33 0:00 httx
dmason 3137 0.0 0.7 21020 3984 ? S 23:33 0:00 htt_xbe
Now if I hit ctrl-space in a KDE window, I get a small rectangle on its lower
left with only a pair of square brackets... If I do so in kmail, which I'm
using now...
はい。これです。
I can type the above, but cannot see any text in the input window. Which
makes selecting kanji sort of a guessing game... I can only see the Japanese
text after I hit return. The windows appear to behave as they should, but I
just don't see any text until I commit the character.
If I do the same in Mozilla, I get the little rectangle with an [あ], and am
able to enter Japanese as usual, able to select kanji, everything works fine.
If I create a brand new new account, start it in Japanese mode, input works
perfectly with KDE apps, and I can see the Japanese characters in the input
window. If I log out, then log back in in English, no input window comes up.
If I add the XIM=htt line in .i18n, log out, log back in then I get the same
behavior as my accout -- the input window pops up but I can't see anything
inside the brackets & no kanji.
Everything seems to be mechanically working, but for some reason the character
window only picks up the font if I am entering text in mozilla. I don't think
this is a feature with my misadventure with the Sazanami fonts, since I had
this same behavior before I tried upgrading.
Anyway, let me know if there's more tests I can try or switches that may not
have been switched, etc.
Thanks!

Hello,
I've been lurking in the background here with the same problem as
"morpheus" & following along as you folks suggest fixes. I too almost
have
Japanese input working -- am running KDE with the language set to English,
but would like to have Japanese input for the occaisional email and web
search... Anyway, I've come closest now with the version 11.4-60 packages.
At least an input window appears in the KDE apps...
But, when I installed those RPMS I also installed the Sazanami fonts...
And now I don't seem to be able to see anything in Japanese. I think my
truetype Japanese fonts may have become corrupted... They appear as blank
squares in KDE apps and mozilla actually crashes if I attempt to go to a
Japanese webpage now! Any hints on how to figure out what happened would
be appreciated... If I pop up xfontsel I can see some of the Japanese x
fonts, but don't really know how to evaluate what's going on with the
truetype fonts...
I have tried uninstalling the Sazanami fonts, and re-installing
ttfonts-ja-1.2-34 without success. I've also tried reverting back to the
11.4-46.svn1587 IIim packages, and of course that didn't affect the
problem...
Thanks!
