It was always the case with me if the daemon is automatically started. I had migrated from lucid, so to make sure that the problem is not with old account settings, I created a new account to check. The same problem is there also.
Then I though of using strace to get some info. Strangely enough when I start strace ibus-daemon, it works fine. Then I tried ibus-daemon on the terminal without strace. It does not work then. If I try strace ibus-daemon -d, the strace info is not displayed after it goes to daemon mode. So i am at loss of what can be done to get to the problem. I can always reproduce it. But I am not sure how or why. If you have any ideas that I can try, I would be happy to try it out. thanks narayanan On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 12:06 PM, drizzle <darran.kelin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Narayanan N, > > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make > Ubuntu better.
