I was using mlterm and gnome-terminal when I was testing this.

Yes, actually, the candidate window's working perfectly and displaying
the correct kanji. The problem is that the candidate window is the only
thing that's working. There's no text displaying in the preedit field,
and there's no output.

So, here's what the sentene " 私は学生です。" looks like under GTK-2:

 私は学生|1出|す。
	|2で|
	|3手|
	|4デ|

Here's what it looks like under XIM:

|1出|
|2で|
|3手|
|4デ|

The whole sentence is gone, and only the candidate window is there. So
the candidate window is probably not the problem.

I've noticed however, that I have a lot of zombie processes of
"uim-helper-server" on my machine, so when my KDE compile is finished
tomorrow (or later today if you follow Japanese time), I could try a reboot.

Talk to you later! :)
