Comment #11 on issue 9643 by ham...@chromium.org: Issues loading IMEs on 64-bit http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9643
I've just succeeded in using 32bit immodules from 64bit linux chrome without using xim. I'd like to write what I did. I'm using uim instead of scim, but I guess similar way would work for scim as well. Got the following 32bit deb packages libuim5_1.4.1-5_i386.deb uim-gtk2.0_1.4.1-5_i386.deb libgcroots0_0.8.0-5ubuntu0.1_i386.deb uim-skk_1.4.1-5_i386.deb from http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libuim5 http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/uim-gtk2.0 http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libgcroots0 http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/uim-skk (I'm using uim-skk as plugin of uim, other plugins may be able to be used as well) Extract them by dpkg -x foobar.deb . or something. Then, copy usr/lib/* into /usr/lib32 . By default, it seems that 32bit binaries try to load 64bit IM modules. We need to create /etc/gtk- 2.0/gtk.immodules.32 to avoid this. The content of the file is "/usr/lib32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules/im-uim.so" "uim" "uim" "uim" "/usr/share/locale" "ja:ko:zh:*" I created this file based on /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule-files.d/uim- gtk2.0.immodules . I guess scim people should copy /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodule- files.d/scim-gtk2-immodule.immodules and modify it. Then, boot chrome with specifying the 32bit plugin directory of uim, which contains libuim-skk.so.
