I can confirm this bug in Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid.

I cannot say what the effects of the defunct scim are, but my keyboard
certainly behaves strange sometimes. With some apps, I suddenly cannot
type anything anymore with the keyboard. Sometimes Alt+Tab helps,
somtimes I need to restart the app. I'm new to Linux so I haven't found
out more, yet.
** Changed in: scim (Ubuntu)
