[Bug 21637] Re: xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy
Sorry, but I not english speaker: I solved in this way: I didn't modificated neither Compose file neither gr file. I had spanishlayout and installed greek polytonic, with the GUI of Gnome. I saw the composer combination didn't work in greek I correct /etc/environment with the line export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim export QT_IM_MODULE=xim I copy Composer en_US.UTF-8 to .XCompose (this archive seem to have the combination Composer of the predefinide language) cp /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose ~/.XCompose and works. The changes of gr file (U0313 and U0314) are not usefull, because the introduce a combinated acent, not show the real ancient greek character. about the horrible definition of dead_ogonek and dead_horn, I tried to changed modificating (keysymdef.h). But the dead_dasia and dead_psili i think are wrong.

[Bug 21637] Re: xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy
There might still be some problems left in hardy. I upgraded from gutsy, where I was able to write polytonic Greek with XIM after I replaced the Compose file with a modified one. After upgrading to hardy (beta -- now up to date as of 2008-04-20) I found that I was not able to type dasia or psili anymore (with XIM, previously shift+ä and shift+ö + plus letter produced the breathings -- ä and ö being the two keys left from L in my keyboard) -- pressing them did not produce anything. Then I modified /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/gr file, keys AC10 and AC11 to key AC10 { [ dead_acute, dead_dasia ] }; // ´ ̓ key AC11 { [ dead_grave, dead_psili ] }; // ` According to a freedesktop.org bug (unfortunately I don't have the link right here, if I recall, Simos Xenitellis who also subscribes to this bug, commented/opened it. This didn't change anything. Then I changed dead_dasia to U0313 and dead_psili to U0314 -- Now I am able to type the breathing marks, but they don't combine with other accents -- acute is just written over the breathing, for instance. I seems that the fixes that are in hardy are not complete. What has changed since gutsy, where I had perfect output, just after modifying the Compose file? -- xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21637 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 21637] Re: xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy
Ok. I should have checked my old modified Compose file. It seems that hardy has /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/gr: key AC10 { [ dead_acute, dead_horn ] }; key AC11 { [ dead_grave, dead_ogonek ] }; which I changed to key AC10 { [ dead_acute, U0313 ] }; key AC11 { [ dead_grave, U0314 ] }; and in /usr/share/locale/en_US.UTF-8 has U1313's and 01314's instead of U0313 or U0314. I changed U1000313's and U1000314 to U0314 and got polytonic input working correctly.

Patch is described at http://blogs.gnome.org/simos/2008/03/05/testing-the-updated-im-support-in-gtk/ Two new keysyms, dead_psili and dead_dasia have been added to Xorg. xkeyboard-config has been updated with dead_psili and dead_dasia. GTK+ has been updated to dead_psili and dead_dasia (on Trunk). This means that Hardy should be able to type Greek polytonic (when using XIM). The GTK+ patch will probably make it in the next version of Ubuntu. -- xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21637 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

dead_grave doesn't seem to produce grave's properly.

It seems to be a bug in the greek layout file in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/gr.

[Bug 21637] Re: xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy
I verify that this bug exists. What happens is that Xorg is able to send the mentioned characters, however, somewhere in both GTK+ and QT applications cannot receive them. To verify, run an X application such as xterm (is there an old-style X editor around?). Try $ xterm -font -bitstream-dejavu sans mono-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-iso10646-1 Then, switch the keyboard to Greek Polytonic: άὰἁἀᾷᾶὰἇῢ I cannot figure out why some characters are excluded and other are not.

[Bug 21637] Re: xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy
Some more results: The compose file in Breezy (probably Dapper) contains incompatible (???) compose sequences for polytonic letters that have diacritical marks. Those incompatible compose sequences do not produce any characters, so as is, it is not possible to produce daseia, psili and possibly others. Not possible, either in GTK+, QT, old X apps. If someone fixes the Compose file*, then in QT applications it is possible to type all those characters. In GTK+ applications I was not able to type them, though it is possible that some settings where cached; I did not restart my session. Due to the upstream GTK+ bug report, for GTK+ applications one needs to set the Input Method to the X Input Method in order to use the fixed Compose file. To fix the compose file, replace the existing Greek polytonic compose sequences in /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose with those generated by http://hal.csd.auth.gr/~vvas/i18n/xkb/polytonic-compose.pl -- xkb greek polytonic: cannot write psili and dasia after upgrade to breezy https://launchpad.net/bugs/21637 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
