I'm currently runing
Fedora Core 2 Test 3 (With all the near daily yum updates).
I'm a New Zealander in Tokyo, so while I use an English X session, I
also need to be able to input Japanese. I've got this working on my
laptop and went through the following steps to do it:
-
Have tested Japanese input in gedit and firefox and it works
Install
these packages:
xinitrc
iiimf-protocol-lib-devel
iiimf-server
iiimf-client-lib
iiimf-client-lib-devel
iiimf-docs
iiimf-csconv
iiimf-gtk
iiimf-protocol-lib
iiimf-x
iiimf-le-inpinyin
iiimf-le-xcin
iiimf-le-canna
iiimf-le-hangul
Change
these files:
Add
this to /etc/htt.conf
AccessControl
permit 127.0.0.1
Add
this to /etc/hosts.allow
htt_server:
127.0.0.1
Add
these to your .bash_profile
export
XMODIFIERS=im=htt
export
GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim
export
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8
Restart
these:
Restart
/etc/init.d/IIim
Restart
your X Session.
(If you're only using a Japanese Gnome X Session, you can skip the
.bash_profile section)
Thanks
for all the work guys. This was a whole lot easier than
all the hair pulling I went through to get this stuff to work in
earlier releases of Redhat a few years back.
-- Side note. Fonts are a little ugly in some apps after doing this.
Cheers
Matt
