I have to manually modify the xinput.d file to get proper support in
OpenOffice; out of the box it's incomplete. I'm running Kubuntu 9.04.

Basically the environmental variables XIM and XIM_PROGRAM aren't set
properly, while GTK_IM_MODULE and QT_IM_MODULE is.

The top of /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/skim looks like this immediately
after installation:

       XIM=SCIM
       XIM_PROGRAM=

...and it needs to look like this for OpenOffice, xterm, and other XIM
stuff to work.

       XIM=SCIM
       XIM_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/scim
       XIM_ARGS="-d"
       XIM_PROGRAM_SETS_ITSELF_AS_DAEMON=yes

Assuming the locale is set to use /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/skim (via im-
switch), restarting X after making these changes makes skim work in
everything.
