unable to use fcitx in 8.04( locale=en )

[lk_517]

Well, I just installed 8.04 on my T43 notebook, and I uninstalled scim for I don't be customed to it. I installed fcitx as follow steps

1 sudo apt-get install fcitx

2 sudo im-switch -s fcitx.

the error information was displayed : "update-alternatives: Cannot find alternative `/etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/fcitx'. "

and it was resolved by the command "update-alternatives --install /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL xinput-all_ALL /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/fcitx 30 "

3 im-switch -s fcitx

4 since my locale is English rather than Chinese, I did the modification as follow:

sudo gedit /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules

corrected

“/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/immodules/im-xim.so”
“xim” “X Input Method” “gtk20″ “/usr/share/locale” “ko:ja:th:zh”

to

“/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/immodules/im-xim.so”
“xim” “X Input Method” “gtk20″ “/usr/share/locale” “en:ko:ja:th:zh”

Say, added a "en".

5 reboot.

To the best of my knowledge, it should work on my system. But unfortunately it doesn't work. Does anybody met this kind of problem before and know the reason?

Your help will be appreciated.

跟偶一开始一样！

在GDM登录前，把语言选成US或者GB就好了～～

奇怪,是这样的,不过为什么?

似乎是要改lang，成功后用export看

declare -x LANG="zh_CN.UTF-8"
declare -x LANGUAGE="zh_CN:zh:en_US:en"

以前是C
