DetailsDescription:
When the Chewing method is selected for the first time in ibus, a window appears a fraction of second and then disapear. This window is simply unsable… That shouldn't happen. At least, the window should work. Additional info: * Arch = x86_64 * Xfce, gnome, kde * libchewing 0.3.3-1 * ibus 1.3.9 * ibus-chewing 1.3.9.2-3 Steps to reproduce: 1. start ibus 2. select chewing input method I have tried to start the ibus-daemon mode in verbose but it doesn't say anything. I have also found an issue close to that one reported on Ubuntu (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-chewing/+bug/838643). A patch was proposed so I tried to apply it with ABS but that didn't change anything at all. (Here is the patch: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=ibus-chewing.git;a=commitdiff;h=23e400e03862f547c76f62d5335ca260e2320c1b#patch1) I've tried the git version of ibus but it's not working yet so I cannot say what it is. |

Do you have a step-by-step receipt for how this bug can be reproduced, to help pinpoint the problem? Thank you.
1. Open a LibreOffice writer document for example
2. Ctrl-space (it enables chewing as an input method)
The window will appear here for a fraction of second and then disapear. (it also appear in the openned-windows list in the xfce bar for a fraction of second).
If I do Ctrl-space again to go back to English it's working fine and if I change again to chewing no window appears. Apparently it only occurs at the first launch.
This problem occurs for any application and only when Chewing is launched the first time (i.e. when I do the first Ctrl-space when I want to use it). After that it does not happen anymore.
To do it again I should restart ibus in the systray.
Here is a video record of the issue in gedit for example: http://depositfiles.com/files/whd95a6tr
Note: it always do it with ibus-chewing 1.3.9.2-5 and ibus 1.4.0-1
Install ibus-chewing and libreoffice-writer.
Run "ibus-setup" and answer "yes" to start the ibus daemon.
Add the ibus-chewing input method to the list under the "Input Setup" tab.
Use these commands:
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
lowriter
In Writer, press ctrl-space to activate the ibus-chewing input and see a window appear and disappear, very briefly.
I'm on x86_64 and have these packages installed:
community/ibus 1.4.0-1
community/ibus-chewing 1.3.9.2-5
extra/libreoffice-writer 3.4.3-2
Thanks for the informative explanation, Ma Jiehong.
I'll let you know about this once it's fixed then.
I think they fixed it:
