I don't use any KDE apps so I don't know how helpful I'll be, but I'll try. When I was setting up SCIM I found many different instructions on various websites, none of them worked for me. It would only work in some apps, if you have an english session and can type chinese in open office you have probably got it setup as good as you can, if not this is how I got it working. I eventually RTFM, it does have a good description of what is happening and some examples (sorry, I'm on a debian system at the moment, can't remember if the documentation is in the same place in ubuntu). $ less /usr/share/doc/scim/README.Debian.gz I used this command from that file, from what I understand it makes all everything get it's input from SCIM all the time, ever since it's been working fine for me, but as I said, I don't have any KDE programs. # im-switch -z all_ALL -s scim If have scim fully working and it still doesn't work in your apps, I know there is another program called skim (the same thing as scim but for KDE) you might have some more luck with that, but I've never had the need to install it.
