[ I'm sorry - had an input problem here - but attributable to a crumb in my keyboard rather than anything to do with input methods:-) ] then we're not shipping a good product. The configuration should be as complex as it needs to be but no more. I don't think there are easy answers, because there are a lot of people out there who really want to make input work well and work well with GNOME. So, mostly what I can do here is try to explain a bit about the way we usually think about things in GNOME and what we consider successful UI. - Owen _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
