<title>The IIIMF Input System</title>

IIIMF is the Internet/Intranet Input Method Framework. In &FC;
&LOCALVER; the <filename>iiimf</filename> package is updated to
version 12.2.
</para>

<varlistentry>
<term>File Path Changes</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The names and locations of some files in the
<filename>iiimf</filename> packages have changed.
</para>
<para>
The IIIMF server has been renamed from
<filename>/usr/sbin/htt</filename> to
<filename>/usr/bin/iiimd</filename>, and the XIM bridge
client renamed from <filename>httx</filename> to
<filename>iiimx</filename>. The
<filename>init.d</filename> script name has not changed:
it is still called <filename>iiim</filename>. All the
global system configuration files are now located under
<filename>/etc/iiim/</filename>.
</para>
<para>
Language Engine (LE) developers should note that LE
modules and their data now live under
<filename>${libdir}/iiim/le/<filename><LE_NAME></filename>/</filename>,
while runtime data is stored under
<filename>/var/lib/iiim/le/<replaceable><LE_NAME></replaceable>/</filename>.

changes, please refer to Fedora IIIMF FAQ:

<term>Hotkeys</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Trigger keys, such as
<keycombo><keycap>Ctrl</keycap><keycap>Space</keycap></keycombo>
used to activate Input Methods, are now configurable with
the command-line tool <command>iiimf-le-tools</command>.
This feature is only supported by GTK2 applications
currently. For other applications using XIM the trigger
key can be changed using an X resource. Refer to the
IIIMF FAQ at <ulink
url="http://www.fedora.redhat.com/projects/i18n/iiimf-faq.html">http://www.fedora.redhat.com/projects/i18n/iiimf-faq.html</ulink>
for more details on how to change trigger hotkeys.
</para>
<para>
Note that the keyname refers to the X key symbol name. For
example, if you want to activate with
<keycombo><keycap>Ctrl</keycap><keycap>@</keycap></keycombo>,
you need to specify '<Control>at' as the keyname not
'<Control>@'.
</para>
<para>
The per-user configuration of hotkeys does not work
currently with &SEL; in enforcing mode due to lack of
&SEL; policy. In this case, the hotkey can only be
changed in the system-wide configuration.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>Qt Support</term>
<listitem>
<para>
A Qt immodule for <filename>iiimf</filename> is now
included. This immodule works but lacks a status window
and is considered experimental. Therefore, the default
for Qt applications is to continue using XIM for IIMF
input.
</para>
<para>
If you wish to try the immodule in a Qt application, first
install the <filename>iiimf-qt</filename> package, start
the application, then click mouse button-3 in an input
area and select <guimenuitem>iiimqcf</guimenuitem> from
the <guisubmenu>Select Input Method</guisubmenu>' submenu.

+ <title>Major Kernel Changes 2.6.11 - 2.6.14</title>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>IPv4 Address Promotion</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Starting with version 2.6.12 of the kernel a new feature has
+ been added called named address promotion. It allows secondary IPv4
+ addresses to be promoted to primary addresses. Usually when the
+ primary address is deleted all secondary addresses are deleted
+ as well. By enabling the new <command>sysctl</command>
+ <option>net.ipv4.conf.all.promote_secondaries</option> (or one of the
+ interface specific variants) this behaviour can be changed to
+ promote one of the secondary addresses to be the new primary
+ address.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Configurable Source Address for ICMP Errors</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ The current behaviour when selecting the source address for
+ ICMP error messages is to use the address of the interface the
+ ICMP error is going to be sent out. Kernel version 2.6.12
+ introduces a new <command>sysctl</command>
+ <option>net.ipv4.icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr</option> which
+ allows to change this behaviour to use the address of the
+ interface which has received the original packet causing the
+ error.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ For example, the kernel receives an ICMP echo request on
+ <computeroutput>eth0</computeroutput>. Because the new
+ <command>sysctl</command> option is enabled, this causes the
+ ICMP echo reply to be sent out via
+ <computeroutput>eth1</computeroutput>. The address of
+ <computeroutput>eth0</computeroutput> is used when the default
+ behaviour would use the address of
+ <computeroutput>eth</computeroutput>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This may ease network debugging in asynchronous routing
+ setups.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>LC-Trie Based Routing Lookup Algorithm</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ A new routing lookup algorithm called
+ <firstterm>trie</firstterm> has been added. It is intended for
+ large routing tables and shows a clear performance improvement
+ over the original hash implementation at the cost of increased
+ memory consumption and complexity.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Pluggable Congestion Control Algorithm Infrastructure</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>TCP congestion control algorithms are now pluggable and
+ thus modular. The legacy <firstterm>new RENO</firstterm>
+ algorithm stays default and acts as fallback algorithm. During
+ the period of this work the following new congestion control
+ algorithms have been added:
+ </para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>High Speed TCP congestion control.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>

+ <listitem>
+ <para>Scalable TCP congestion control.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <para>All existing congestion control modules have been
+ converted to this new infrastructure and the BIC congestion
+ control has received enhancements from BICTCP 1.1 to handle
+ low latency links.
+ </para>
+ <note>
+ <title>Affecting the Congestion Control Algorithm</title>
+ <para>
+ An interesting addition for developers is that the
+ congestion control algorithm is socket specific and can be
+ changed via the socket option
+ <option>TCP_CONGESTION</option>.

+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Queue Avoidance upon Carrier Loss</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>When a network driver notices a carrier loss, for example
+ when the cable is pulled out, the driver stops the queue in
+ front of the driver. This has been causing the packets to be
+ queued at the queueing discipline layer for an unbound period
+ of time causing unexpected effects. In order to prevent this
+ effect, the core networking stack now ceases to accept any
+ packets for queueing for any device that is operationally
+ down, that is, has its queue disabled.
+ </para>

+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>DCCP Protocol Support</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Kernel version 2.6.14-rc1 was the first version to receive
+ support for the DCCP protocol. The implementation is still
+ experimental but known to work. Work to make userspace
+ applications aware of this new protocol has started.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Wireless</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>A new driver named HostAP has been added to 2.6.14-rc1
+ allowing the emulation of a wireless access point in software.
+ Currently this driver only works for Intersil Prism2-based
+ cards (PC Card/PCI/PLX). Support for wireless cards Intel(R)
+ PRO/Wireless 2100 and 2200 has been added.

+ <title>iproute</title>
+ <para>
+ The IPv4 address deletion algorithm did not take the prefix
+ length into account up to kernel version 2.6.12. Since this has
+ changed the iproute2 tool now issues a warning if no prefix length
+ is provided to warn about possible unintended deletions:
+ </para>
+<screen>

+su -c 'ip addr del 10.0.0.3 dev eth0'
+Warning: Executing wildcard deletion to stay compatible with old
+ scripts. Explicitly specify the prefix length (10.0.0.3/32) to
+ avoid this warning. This special behaviour is likely to disappear
+ in further releases, fix your scripts!
+</screen>
+ <para>
+ The correct method of deleting the address and thus avoiding the
+ warning is:
+ </para>
+<screen>
+su -c 'ip addr del 10.0.0.3/24 dev eth0'
+</screen>
+ <para>
+ It has not been possible to tell if an interface is down
+ administratively or because no carrier can be found (cable
+ unplugged). The flag <computeroutput>NO-CARRIER</computeroutput>
+ has been introduced that shows up as a link flag if the link is
+ administratively up but no carrier can be found.

-
- <note>
- <title>Note</title>
-
- <para>It is important to keep in mind that
- <filename>ext2online</filename> does not grow the underlying block
- device itself — there must be sufficient unused space already
- present on the device. The easiest way to ensure this is to use LVM
- volumes and to run <filename>lvresize</filename> or
- <filename>lvextend</filename> to extend the device.</para>
- </note>
-
- <para>In addition, file systems must be specially prepared in order to
- be resized past a certain point. The preparation involves reserving a
- small amount of space into which on-disk tables can grow. For
- newly-created file systems, <filename>mke2fs</filename> reserves such
- space automatically; the space reserved is sufficient to grow the file
- system by a factor of 1000. The creation of this reserved space can
- be disabled by the following command:</para>
-
- <para><command>mke2fs -O ^resize_inode</command></para>
-
- <para>Future releases of &DISTRO; will allow the creation of this

- <para>The version of <filename>glibc</filename> provided with

- <para>By default, the program that generated this error will also be

- supported:</para>

- <para>The default Input Method (IM) for Chinese (Simplified and

- — the Internet/Intranet Input Method Framework. IIIMF is
- supported as a native GTK2 IM module, and also through XIM using
- the httx client. IIIMF supports the use of multiple Language
- Engines (LEs) at the same time; using the GNOME Input Method
- Language Engine Tool (<application>GIMLET</application> — an
- applet) it is possible to switch between LEs of different
- languages inside GTK2 applications.</para>
