Help! A strange problem with ibus and ibus-pinyin

astrobear

Sorry for posting in English, but I cannot use my Chinese input method.

I cannot find any clues on the web and finally ask for help here. Please help me with the strange problem.

Thank you.


This is a new installation of Gentoo on my new Thinkpad T400.

I have emerged ibus and ibus-pinyin. Without any configurations (like XIM etc.), An icon of ibus (keyboard with an earth) appears on the toolbar(notification area) of Gnome.

I can use the "Shou Xuan Xiang" button or ibus-setup command to setup it. But it can NOT SAVE any changes.

I tried many times to add the ibus-pinyin as the default input method, but nothing happens. Every time I launch ibus-setup again, and see the input method list keeping blank.

The version information:

dev-lang/python-2.6.2-r1  USE="berkdb gdbm ncurses readline sqlite ssl threads xml -build -doc -examples -ipv6 -tk -ucs2 -wininst"
app-i18n/ibus-1.2.0.20091024  USE="nls -doc"
app-i18n/ibus-pinyin-1.2.0.20090915  USE="nls"



PS:

Other information maybe useful:

My googleearth(4.2.205.5730) on the same enviroment cannot save settings too. I add a place for my apartment, and close googleearth and start it again. The place setting disappears.

Another Gentoo system on an old laptop(Acer TM280) has a similar problem. The ibus works well on it, but the Firefox always forgets bookmarks which are newly added. It works correctly sometimes when I get a good luck.

Another Gentoo system on my desktop has met a similar problem too. This time it turn to Gnome. A new user sometimes lost icons on the desktop and toolbars after creating it and rebooting.

帮顶了，“首选项”的设置不能存盘呀。

我是新手，提点可能的问题：
本地化是否正确设置了？

Thank you.
What do you mean about the localization? I'm using zh_CN.UTF-8 for LC_* and have set the Xmodifiers and gtk/qt_im_module in ~/.xprofile .

抱歉，我不知道为什么，
我的local设置
LANG=zh_CN.utf8

我的～/.xprofile：
# information prompted when emerge ibus
#export GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus"
#export XMODIFIERS="@im=ibus"
#export QT_IM_MODULE="xim"
#ibus-daemon -d -x

# prompted by ibus-setup
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

我遇到过的问题：
（1）选择拼音输入法后，硬盘狂动，只能强制退出
（2）输入法图标突然丢了
（3）输入法不能正常工作

我乱试的，一般用如下方法：
（1）uemerge掉所有的和ibus相关的东西。（包括用emerge --depclean自残, revdep-rebuild修复）
（2） 在.xprofile中将ibus相关的都去掉(以前还在99locale中设置中)，所以把这个都去掉了。
（3）系统重启。（为了保险，我变态的重起了2遍）
（4）emerge --sync
（5）重新安装ibus-pinyin。（曾经有一次必须装上ibus-table才能正常，可是后来又发现不装ibus-table才能正常）

祝好运！
