A language teacher in my school asked me to see if I could get a chinese
input server up. So I installed minichinput and the chinese ttfonts that
come with RH9. Here is my problem. If I login to gnome with language
set to simplified chinese, minichinput works with the CTRL-SPACE (the
little input box comes up) but when I use IceWM (which I prefer) the
input server is not started. Even, if I start it manually ($chinput) in
IceWM it still is not invoked by the CTRL-SPACE.
One other note: even when I use gnome I can't get OOo to work with it
(the input box works but no fonts appear in OOo) although gedit works
fine. And yes I have tried fiddling with the Asian support in OOo.
Anyone run into this before??
