If you scim can start but won't allow you to change input language(always in english US)
Try change to
LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="zh_CN.UTF-8:en_US.UTF-8"
See whether it help?
By the way, make sure you'd had install chinese table.

yah ! i was install the chinese table from synaptic package manager and all recommended , suggesded also ; sorry for how to change the above two option ? and is i need to change the local setting to chinese and Japanese ? and how to do it ?
you can edit /etc/environment, /etc/profile, or /etc/profile.d/*anyfile*, ~/.dmrc and etc. Use the 1st should be ok for u.
Do your locale settings affect SCIM? I'm not using Ubuntu, but on Red Hat and Fedora, scim works just fine at least for typing Japanese chars without any change to the default locale settings.

I apparently spoke too soon. I just installed Ubuntu 6.10 on a spare machine and I'm having a heck of a hard time getting SCIM to work. It does start up, but it won't let me type in anything other than Roman alphabets...
and now i can input Chinese / Japanese in English environment thank your help , and b4 that i was install all ttf font and all this thing :
scim
scim-chinese
scim-config-gconf
scim-config-socket
scim-frontend-socket
scim-gtk2-immodule
scim-server-socket
scim-tables-zh
xfonts-intl-chinese
thank every body give me a help !!谢谢 有難う御座います
after the typing of Chinese and Japanese look like i have to improve the font type , can help ? or just simply change it from application i am using ?
Does that mean you need to change LC_CTYPE whenever you need to switch between Chinese and Japanese? That sounds kinda awkward. Under Fedora Core 5/6 you don't need to touch LC_CTYPE in order for SCIM to work.

no , just can input very well between Chinese/Japanese like above fist two is Chinese and the following is Japanese , and if you know Koren also can be done.
