Thanks Giuliano. This is what I had thought but wasn't sure. I hesitate to remove it completely because it seems to be tied into multiple keyboards which I do use. I will search for its initialization and disable it because, on my system at least, it is a real pain. I'm also a bit nonplussed that (K)Ubuntu put this on my system at all, and I wonder if they are going down the (Micros*ft) road to locking down the user.?! > The annoying thing is that if the daemon is running, the default > shortcut to activate it is ctrl-space, which is also the Lazarus > shortcut for command completion. > > On RH related distros (Fedora, CentOs, etc.) ibus is not enabled by > default, unless you select as a system language one which requires an > input method (such as chinese).
