The manual way
The KDE4 integration/support is already very well in Debian. Just follow the steps below:
- Select the IME (Input Method Engine) you want to use (a package search for »ibus-« shows you all available IMEs). This example will use ibus-table-array30, just replace it everywhere with the IME you selected.
- Run (as root)
# aptitude install ibus-table-array30 ibus-qt4 ibus-gtk
- Run (as a user)
$ ibus-setup
and configure ibus according to your wishes (don't forget to select at least one IME in the second tab). - Add
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
to your $HOME/.xsessionrc. This is a diversion from what ibus-setup tells you, but needed to make it work for all applications inside a KDE session. - Now you need a way to auto-start the ibus daemon on every login. KDE4 provides the Autostart folder for such occasions:
$ echo "ibus-daemon -d -x -r -n kde" > $HOME/.kde/Autostart/ibus-daemon-autostart.sh && chmod +x $HOME/.kde/Autostart/ibus-daemon-autostart.sh
- Now you need to relogin to make the .xsessionrc settings global for your KDE session.
- After the relogin you can activate and deactivate the ibus input method in all applications with the keys you configured (default: Ctrl + Space) as you need it (if some characters can't be displayed you should install a font which carries the required characters).
The "kimpanel" way
kimpanel is now in Debian (in the package plasma-widgets-addons). Here you should only need the first step from the manual way, install plasma-widgets-addons additionally and add the kimpanel to your Plasma workspace.
