ibus input How TO

Posted 08-23-2012 at 09:27 AM by ted_chou12

I am able to input thru ibus, I am using slackware 13.37 vl 70. Please keep in mind of the model:
http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/IBus
after installing ibus and desired input method:
Code:
touch /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/ibus.conf
Quote:
The following code should be placed into ibus.conf:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

export XMODIFIERS="@im=ibus" 
export GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus" 
#export QT_IM_MODULE="ibus" 
export QT_IM_MODULE="xim" 

# allow capslock remap
xmodmap -e 'clear Lock' -e 'keycode 66 = F13'

XIM=ibus
XIM_PROGRAM=/bin/true
XIM_ARGS=
SHORT_DESC="ibus" 
LONG_DESC="ibus"
Create /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/ibus.conf -> ~/.xinputrc symlink
Code:
ln -s /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/ibus.conf ~/.xinputrc

    For launching ibus at startup, you must add
    Code:
    ibus-daemon -rxd
    in .~/.icewm/startup file.

    Does it still work on Slackware64 14.2 ?
    The folder xinput.d does not exist, and the file could not be created.
