KDE Input Method Panel

Acknowledgement

Translated "almost" verbatim from http://userbase.kde.org/Tutorials/Kimpanel_(zh_CN) (deprecated due to new translation system)

Introduction

KDE Input Method Panel is a panel Plasmoid for various input methods with concurrent Plasma theme.

Input Method Panel

Right click desktop, choose Add Widgets, place the Input Method Panel plasmoid wherever you prefer.

fcitx-dbus

Support for Fcitx has been in trunk since r294. Users are encouraged to upgrade.

svn co http://fcitx.googlecode.com/svn/trunk fcitx
cd fcitx
./configure --prefix=/usr && make && sudo make install

Tip

*Arch Linux users should follow Fcitx - ArchWiki.

Tip

*Kubuntu users should check fcitx-svn.

IBus

Install ibus as usual. Then

For Kubuntu 9.10 + KDE SC 4.4.x:

install kimpanel-backend-ibus

sudo apt-get install plasma-widget-kimpanel-backend-ibus

open systemsettings -> autostart, add

ibus-daemon --panel=/usr/lib/ibus/ibus-ui-kde

Note

ibus requires ibus-qt or ibus-qt4 to input special characters in KDE/Qt applications. (I doubt it --- there is XIM still.)

For Arch Linux:

open System Settings -> Autostart, add

ibus-daemon -drx --panel=/usr/lib/kimpanel-ibus-panel

For Gentoo:

open System Settings -> Autostart, add

ibus-daemon -drx --panel=/usr/lib64/libexec/kimpanel-ibus-panel

Note

The panel path here is only for a 64-bit architecture. For other architectures, please change it accordingly.

If the Input Method Panel Plasmoid is absent, please check $QT_IM_MODULE and set that to ibus.
