ibus README for SuSE
How to start using ibus

In poor English:
0:Note: ibus don't support QT3 immodule,
If you use qt3-base applications, modify your /etc/X11/xim.d/ibus to
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim

1.SuSE can start ibus automatically when your locale is set to en, zh_TW, zh_CN, zh_HK, zh_SG, ko_KR and ja_JP.
The setup script is a link in /etc/X11/xim.d/YOUR-LOCALE/15-ibus which link to /etc/X11/xim.d/ibus. 
The number "15" makes ibus have priority over other input-method (e.g 50-scim or 90-xcin ).
If you prefer not using ibus, mv 15-ibus to 80-ibus (for example). Or see 2.

2.If for some reason can't start ibus when login Xwindow
(1)maybe you are using root to login X,
(2)your /etc/X11/xim was modified,
(3)you are using a locale other than 1.
(4)there is another input-method who has higher priority then ibus (e.g 10-oxim)
You can edit ~/.xim, see ~/.xim.template for more informations.
Or edit ~/.profile, add
export INPUT_METHOD="ibus"
After installing ibus, there's a template for ibus: /usr/share/doc/packages/ibus/xim.ibus.suse.template
copy this file to ~/.xim, then you can use ibus next login X.

3.You want to use your own input-method other than system setting, see 2.

4.Notice:ibus will try to stop skim(a front-end of scim in kde) auto-start when login kde.

5.Bug report or any suggestion to

In Chinese:
0:注意：ibus 不支援 QT3 immodule,
若您使用 qt3-based 應用程式，請修改 /etc/X11/xim.d/ibus 設定
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim

1.當您使用的語系是en 或zh_*時，SuSE 會自動啟動ibus
啟動的script是/etc/X11/xim.d/YOUR-LOCALE/15-ibus，這是一個到上層目錄ibus的連結
"15"這個數字使他的優先順序高於90-xcin及50-scim
如果您不喜歡這個順序，修改連結的名稱為(例如：80-ibus)，或參考2.

2.重新登入X後，如果不能用ibus...可能是：
(1)您用root登入X，
(2)您的/etc/X11/xim被更改過了，
或普通使用者無法想使用自己的設定，
(3)您使用非1.中指定的語系
(4)有別的輸入法的優先順序高於ibus(例如：10-oxim)
您可以編輯~/.xim，請參考~/.xim.template
安裝ibus後，會有一個範本：/usr/share/doc/packages/ibus/xim.ibus.suse.template
將這個檔案複製到您的~/.xim，當您下次登入X時就可以使用ibus了
或編輯~/.profile，加入
export INPUT_METHOD="ibus"

3.如果您想要自己選擇輸入法而非使用系統設定，請參考2.

4.注意：ibus會取消skim(scim的kde前端程式)的auto-start
