Comment #19 on issue 19926 by [email protected]: Cannot input any text in Japanese flash page http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=19926
Good news. My acquaintance reported to me that the latest Adobe flash player for Linux (10.1 beta 2) released on Dec 17th has started to support IMEs. Here is the screen shot from him (thanks!): http://meke.ficia.com/#album-photo/729DB964-E7F0-11DE-BEE9-2BFA3743A844/lG4bRdbv3hGSo8TSbjc4Fg In fact, Adobe's release note says that "[FP-40] International text entry broken in Linux reports in Flash Player 9.0.48 or higher. (2201048)." http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/releasenotes.pdf (direct link) I've confirmed that we can input (at least) Japanese characters into a flash application inside Chromium with IBus. My environment is as follows: OS: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala), 32bit Window manager: GNOME default Chrome: 4.0.266.0 (Official Build 33992) Flash plugin: 10,1,51,66 (10.1 beta 2, you can check the version by visiting http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/) IBus: Karmic's default. ibus 1.2.0.20090927-2ubuntu2 and ibus-anthy 1.2.0.20090813-2. Steps to reproduce: 0. Make sure your IM framework (IBus, SCIM, uim, etc.) is properly configured. 1. Download the latest flash plugin, flashplayer10_1_p2_linux_121709.tar.gz. 2. Extract the tar ball and run the installation script as a non-root user to install the plugin to ~/.mozilla/. 3. Start Chromium, then visit http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to make sure you're using the latest plugin. 4. Visit http://www.ustream.tv/channel/CBS-News (for example) 5. Click the "Chat" link on the right side of the video window. 6. Click the text area inside the chat application, then press an IME hotkey. Can someone check if the latest plugin works fine with other IM frameworks and/or for other languages?
