I am sorry to bother you again, but I am still unable to enter Japanese from the keyboard.
I have gimlet with Japanese and English as choices. When I choose Japanese I cannot input anything at all. When I choose English I can input English.
Thanks, for all your help.
Note: forwarded message attached.

More details please: what OS and application are you using?
What happens when you press Ctrl-Space in a gtk2-based application like gedit, say?
What does "printenv | grep iiim" output?

Hello Jens Petersen,
More details please: what OS and application are you using?
LinuxTLE (Fedora FC3) and Firefox, OpenOfficeTLE, accessories, etc.
What happens when you press Ctrl-Space in a gtk2-based application like gedit, say?
Depends on my locale LANG=th_TH ... Nothing happens. Same as without typing Ctrl-Space
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 ... Keyboard no longer produces any visible characters, no matter how many times I press Ctrl-Space. Kill gedit, start again.
LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ... Same as LANG=th_TH
What does "printenv | grep iiim" output?
GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim

Thanks for your help.

Could you try installing iiimf-le-thai, restart X and see if it changes the behaviour.

Canna is running?
LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ... Same as LANG=th_TH
Does Ctrl-Shift-Space do anything for you?
What does "printenv | grep iiim" output?
GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim
Have you read the FAQ btw?

Is this the same as iiimf-le-sun-thai-12.1-4.1.tlc.i386.rpm?
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 ... Keyboard no longer produces any visible characters, no matter how
many
times I press Ctrl-Space. Kill gedit, start again.

This was my problem. I did not have Canna installed! Now Ctrl-Space produces the little canna box, but doesn't make it go away. Shift-space seems to work better.
Ctrl-shift-space makes the box appear and disappear. And I can use it to change input languages. The gimlet icon gets a red-halo. Is this normal? What does it indicate?
Shift-space seems to work with gedit, while with firefox I must use gimlet.
Have you read the FAQ btw?
Yes. That's where I started.
Thanks for all your help. I apologize for my stupidity. I thought that iim-le-canna embodied canna support.

Yes, iiimf-le-sun-thai.
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8

Hm, Ctrl-Space should toggle it on/off.
Shift-space seems to work better.
Same for Shift-Space I think.
The gimlet icon gets a red-halo. Is this normal? What does it indicate?
It means that the input language indicated is active.
Shift-space seems to work with gedit, while with firefox I must use gimlet.
Ctrl-Space doesn't work in firefox?
Glad it is working better for you now.
