XIM does not work with mozilla built firefox binary.

I am using tinycorelinux 5.0.2, which only contains firefox 21. I downloaded firefox esr (24.1.1). It ran well.

Now I am trying to use SCIM (1.4.14) with it. The SCIM works fine with firefox 21 and xterm.

But in this mozilla prebuilt version, I cannot even call out SCIM by hotkey Ctrl + Space. And no error message in commandline output.

What should I do?

BTW: I cannot execute this version in Ubuntu Precise 64bit at all. So I cannot verify if it was other parts fault.

  • You mention XIM in the title what is that ?
  • and SCIM ?

Maybe it would help if you are able to give more information about this software

  • home websites & repositories
  • Full name and version

Are you saying you are not able to use SCIM & XIM on Ubuntu,or that you can not use Firefox on Ubuntu.

The default Firefox download from Mozilla Firefox is a 32bit version. That may require additional libraries in 64 bit Ubuntu. I am posting from 64 bit Canonical Fx27 on 64 Bit Ubuntu LTS 12.04. But have Mozilla versions also installed and as a test the Mozilla Fx24.1.1 esr is actually running simultaneously.

Not something I have even heard of before. I did see the Wiki myself but that mentions

Stable release 	0.5.13 / May 21, 2013; 5 months ago 

The OP mentions

SCIM (1.4.14)
