What about, from terminal, doing something like XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.Big5 GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx firefox (the zh_TW.Big5 is just a guess, one that I saw googling lc_ctype for Chinese.). These are just guesses on my part. I've not had a similar issue, save for the firefox thing on FreeBSD that I mentioned. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
