My Emacs editor can’t work with ibus chinese input method, ibus shows No input

  • 0

My Emacs editor can’t work with ibus chinese input method, ibus shows “No input window” when cursor is on Emacs.

I run Emacs with alias like LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8" emacs, It actually works before, but I have no idea why it doesn’t work now, maybe some system update I think.

About my system: Gentoo Linux with Gnome3, I installed Emacs23 and Emacs24, and both of them can’t work with ibus now.

PS: Ibus works on other programs, Emacs can display chinese characters well.

    It seems the problem only happen on Gentoo. Because system update clear up some fonts. The solution is to install the missing fonts:


    emerge media-fonts/font-adobe-75dpi x11-apps/bdftopcf media-fonts/font-alias media-fonts/font-util

    Then after logout and re-login, I can use input method again.
