[SOLVED] ibus-daemon cannot start

[mystere88]

Dear all,

I like so much Mageia (and its ancestor Mandrake.mandriva) even though there are always some paintful
post-installation tunings to do This time, one concern is about ibus.

Just got Mageia 3 and installed the Ibus packages (using ibus-pinyin). Then when I do the first step

Code: Select all

[jianfeng@localhost ~]$ ibus-setup
Can not execute default panel program
(main.py:3459): IBUS-WARNING **: Unable to connect to ibus: Could not connect: Connection refused
[jianfeng@localhost ~]$

It is in fact that Ibus-daemon cannot be started that produces the first warning as proved by

Code: Select all

[jianfeng@localhost ~]$ ibus-daemon
Can not execute default panel program
[jianfeng@localhost ~]$

So what it does mean... "default panel program"..?
Do someone also had this trouble? I have searched posts regarding ibus (quite few regarding other issues); gooled the warning but
didn't figure out any solution.
Any idea ??? Thanks.

p.s. I had already in .bashrc:

Code: Select all

export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

谢谢你， doctor5000!
( Thank you, doctor5000)

As you can see, I can input Chinese now! The errata page is the right one to read.. and my problem is discussed
in the item just below the one you indicated:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_Errata#KDE:

KDE
KDE Activities shown as Delete with red X (bug 7260)
KDE starts on TTY2 (bug 8074)
ibus-daemon not started (bug 8459), workaround is to install ibus-ui-gtk3.

So following line 3, installing ibus-ui-gtk3 solves the problem.

Mageia is GREAT...
