I'm looking for a current primer on the options for Chinese input available for Karmic (9.10). I'm new to Linux, but have been using Chinese input method editors for Windows and Mac for some time. I found some info in these forums, but most of it is several years old.
Some specific questions:
1) I have enabled Chinese input through system>administration>language support, but it seems there is no option for traditional Chinese input via Pinyin, only through some of the other methods, like ¡.
2) I take is IBus is a general name for Asian language input in Linux, but I don't quite understand if it's the only option out there. Also, did it replace SCIM?
3) This being open source, I'm guessing there are tons of input method editors out there to try. Is there some sort of repository I can search.

We would like to type simplified Chinese characters on FC11. gcim is installed, and it is selected as input method. We see that with ctrl-space input method changes, and we can select types with ctrl-shift. However, we cannot find a "normal" simplified Chinese,. If we type "WO" it pops up with 7 possibilities, witch is not enough as it suppose to drop over 50 .

My installation of slakware linux 12.0 seemed Ok, I can see the beautiful KDE Window and I can also read Chinese homepages by Foxfire browser. But I don't know how I can input Chinese characters. I in fact installed everything from the DVD-package. It appeared that SCIM was installed, and I don't know if I have CLE.

I've done a little program, it's the snake game. I use an X window to show the snake and all that but the input is taken from the terminal. That means that what I have to do to play the game is open it with the terminal and then the game opens but then I have to go to the terminal again to move the snake. if I open the game from the GUI I can't do anything because it doesn't take my directions. What do I have to do in order to get the program to have a connection with my keyboard? I use getchar() to get the input, maybe there is something else?

I really don't know what to call it, but I want to change the color of text that appears before you type in whatever your input is.
For example:
Code:
negrabee@david-desktop:~$ ls /home/david/
I would want "negrabee@david-desktop:~$" to be in a different color. When you have whole bunch of commands and text in a full screen terminal, it gets really annoying to have to look for where you're entering the command so changing the color.

I have sshed into a linux box and I'm using dvtm and bash (although I have also tried this with Gnu screen and bash). I have two terminals, current /dev/pts/29 and /dev/pts/130. I want to redirect the input from one to the other.And then when I type in /dev/pts/29 the characters I type should show up in /dev/pts/130. However what ends up happening is that every other character I type gets redirected.

I'm trying to create an iso file in a terminal with the following command:
$cat /dev/sr0 > nameofdisk.iso
I get the following error
cat: /dev/sr0: Input/output error
I already checked and my optical drive is indeed /dev/sr0. I've hunted google a few hours trying to figure it out. Does anyone know why I'd be getting this error?

1.) Whenever i am starting a new instance of terminal, it is giving messages 'unable to read input images' five times. Actually i had run a shell script that gave this message, but why is it appearing every time, i am opening a new terminal, (that script is already over and it generated the required outputs)? Because of this, when i run 'ls' command, it is showing all the files and directories with the same color, otherwise it used to show them in different colors.
2.) Once my panel had crashed, then i have made a new panel, but after that my instant messenger icon is no more keeps sitting on the system tray as it used to do before, it closes as i close its window otherwise even after closing the window, it used to keep me logged in and the icon use to be there at system tray.
3.) automount for usbdrive not working? Note: all these problems are there only in my own user account. Other user account like root and guest has everything correct.

I'm trying to get a script to open a gnome-terminal and input commands into it, just as you would typing them in. That way, I can automate commands using bash, even if the terminal is running a non-bash program like telnet, mysql, vim, etc.
So, for instance..
I would like to open telnet to connect to a mud (I'm aware of the security concerns) and input commands through a script.
This way, I can log in, enter name/password, and do some start-game stuff automatically.
This isn't just for a mud, though. I'd like to be able to script inputs for any terminal application... maybe automate vim, mysql, or whatever.

when I call a windows application with wine I cannot type anything when the application asks for it. The typed keys are displayed in the terminal instead. I use a ubuntu-based distro.

I've got used to using the ftp command from the terminal, which is useful, especially with macros. But it requires user input, and what I want to do now is upload a specific file to a server, once I've finished working with it every day. It's the same file every day. II would like to be able to do this semi-automatically: I just give the command and it connects to the server and uploads the file. (I will probably want to encrypt the file before uploading it.)I don't know how I could use ftp without any user input: I want it to be automatic.

While I can find my way around most things, terminals and desktop managers are different than I remember. One of the biggest problems that I am encountering today is that when running a gnome terminal (this is Suse 10.0 enterprise), I'm getting behavior in the window that I don't want. Specifically, when I type, my typing is underlined as if something is trying to spell check my window. Further, it seems as if when running vi or less, my keystrokes are only processed by these apps when I hit 'return'. I.e. if I'm running less and want to go back a page, I'll hit b, but nothing happens until I hit 'return'.
I seem to have tracked this down to the 'input method". Right clicking in the Gnome terminal allows me to set my input method to one of a dozen values. It seems that currently, it's set to "SCIM Input Method". If I then select 'default' or 'X Input Method', apps (i.e. things like less, vi, and even the bash shell) behave as I would expect.
a) what is this SCIM input method
b) how can I make it so that it is not the default?
I've poked around various configuration files in my home directory as well as in /etc, but I can't see to find how this is set.

I recently got a real fancy unidirectional microphone, but when I go and use it, something strange happens. The mic is a mono mic, but when I record something, it appears to think it's stereo. Instead of having the same thing on both channels, it puts it all in the left channel, and silence on the right channel.
I tried fiddling with alsamixer. In capture (F4), adjusting the "Capture" device has an effect. However, it doesn't do anything useful. Lowering the right channel to zero does nothing, lowering the left channel to zero creates silence, and disabling the right channel creates silence.
In my System>Preferences>Sound (or pavucontrol, or what-have-you), there are "Analog Stereo Input" and "Analog Stereo Duplex" options there, but no "Analog Mono Input" or "Analog Stereo Output + Analog Mono Input" options (the latter being ideal).
Something interesting, though, if I do this:
Code:
arecord -r 96000 -D pulse -c 1 -vv -V mono /dev/null
it works correctly and outputs on both channels. But if I do
Code:
arecord -r 96000 -D pulse -c 2 -vv -V stereo /dev/null
then it's back to the same behavior. The VU meter on the second command shows the left channel going up and down as I make noise, but the right one always at zero.
The machine does have a crap internal mic built in to the screen bezel. If I do either of the above commands, they both work correctly. The stereo VU shows the same activity for both channels.
The machine is a Eee 1015PED, which has Intel integrated sound. Something probably insignificant is that the mic has a 1/4 inch mono plug, and to get it to plug into the Eee, I needed to get a 1/4 female to 1/8 male adapter. The mic's 1/4 plug is mono (duh) and therefore two-conductor, but the adapter I got is stereo, or three conductor (L, R, GND). I don't know if this is tripping something in hardware to tell it it's stereo or something.
I tried the mic on my desktop, which has a SB Audigy 4 (the non-pro flavor) and that has the "Analog Mono Input" function, so that works fine. Is there some way to turn this stereo input into mono input?

I installed Lucid. I used to have Ubuntu 9.10 and to connect my iPod to my laptop's speakers. There was an option in 9.10 in the Sound Options to change the Mic Input into a Line Input. But now unfortunately I can't find it in Lucid have only 2 audio ports in the laptop: Headphone port, Mic port.

I would like to use Japanese kana (hiragana, katakana, kanji) on Ubuntu but everything that I've tried to get it set up and running isn't working. The Spanish that I have set up is working perfectly so far.
I've read, the SCIM input program should start up automatically when loading a program, it doesn't. When I have it loaded I cannot seem to get the input working.

I can't get Thai language input to work.
In "language support" I installed Thai, but it remains grayed out.
In "ibus preferences / input method", no languages are shown.
I added:
I added: "ibus-daemon --xim" to startup applications. No effect.

Well, I was randomly taking a look at my vsftpd log today, and came across something unusual to myself. About a week ago a computer tried to connect to my computer repeatedly with bogus default usernames. There were many attempted connections with usernames such as 'user', 'root', 'linux', and 'login'. Probably about 1000 attempts, within about 2 seconds of each other.

Ive had my server up and running for a few weeks now, everything has been good. My one small hitch is that while in the console I need to be able to see Chinese Simplified characters. I dont really need to type them, but I do need to be able to read them. How do I go about adding support for simplified chinese?

I hope this is an appropriate place to post this - if not, so sorry & just let me know where I should start the chat: I run a dual booted (Win Vista & Ubuntu Studio Lucid) Dell Inspiron Laptop (2.2 ghz core2duo, 4 gb ram, 256 mb vc, 500 gb hdd).
At random times when I boot into Ubuntu, (right away after grub) I get a black screen with one line of dark red Chinese charachters at the top of the screen and then it just freezes there. Have any of you ever heard of this, and if so, could you enlighten this nOOb? All I do to fix it is reboot, and often this will fix the issue. Is it possible that my system been compromised through installing stuff from medi/univ/multi?

I have no problems displaying Chinese characters in IE in Windows and I just switched over to Ubuntu.
I have gone to view-> Character Encoding and set it to simpified Chinese but the screenshot still looks like the attachment.
I see only squares. What should I do?
