I'm not sure if this has been posted to opensolaris-help and
Jaap and so I'm explicitly forwarding this email. Sorry if this
is a duplication...

Hello Jaap,
I'm cc'ng i18n-discuss mailing list since we have globalization experts
in that mailing list and also for the case that this problem is already
know (with hopefully resolutions). IIMF folks, please also comment on
the following answer from me and also your future migration plan on
the gimlet:
I think the compose key issue probably can be resolved if you
press and release control and space keys together to get into
Latin (English/European) input mode if you've gimlet (GNOME
Input Method switvher appLET) at your JDS panel at
the bottom of the screen. You can also click on the "En" at
the panel, and then, select "English/European" input mode.
You will then see "Latin" next to the "En" and you're ready to
input compose sequences. If you don't see the gimlet, then,
you can start iiim-properties application from a terminal and
enable input methods and also configure it to suit your need.
You can add gimlet to panel via GUI: click right button at
the panel, click on Add to Panel..., scroll down the list and
select "InputMethod Switcher" and then click on "Add" button.
The gaim crash might be a separate issue and I hope someone
else in the mailng list can answer the question.

Hello all,
I'm having some problems with the Compose key, and
something related. Here are all the symptoms:
- In the C locale, the Compose key doesn't work.
- In the en_GB.ISO8859-15 locale, it works (at least
with Evolution)
- In the en_GB.UTF-8 locale, it doesn't:
* firefox, with <Compose>,A,B only prints character
A
* evolution prints [?} instead of composed
characters
* with gaim, when I try to enter a composed
character, I get "Gtk: file gtktextbuffer.c: line
698: assertion `g_utf8_validate (text, len, NULL)'
failed"
In any locale, gaim crashes when someone tries to
send a composed character to me.
I'm not sure what information to send, but: the
machine I'm doing this on is an Ultra 60 with a type
5 keyboard, OpenSolaris is a (non-debug) build from
November 3, 2006, I'm using Gnome/JDS from build 55.
'locale' says the following:
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
Does anybody have any idea what is going on?
Kind regards,
Jaap Boender
