Another scrap of information -- if within my kde session I fire up a gnome app like gedit, hit ctrl-space, input works fine, and I can see what I enter in the input box. Same with mozilla... If I log into a newly created account, under gnome, the input method also works. (and in fact within gmail I input text within the main window, not in a subwindow, which is what kmail used to do on my old laptop with RH 7.3 & kinput2...) But-- if inside that same gnome session I fire up a kde app like kedit, I have the same input problems as with a kde app in my kde session: input box pops up, but with no visible text. So somehow kde apps are the problem for me, and even then mechanically the input window appears to be working, just nothing is displayed...
