Thanks. Unfortunately, after some effort I can not configure the prefs so that the m17n-*-* appears as an option in the 'Enabled Input Methods' field in uim-pref-gtk window. I have tried to manually register the m17nlib based on instructions from Hirosi in previous emails replies, but still have had no luck. <div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div> <div> On 12/10/06, Etsushi Kato <<a href="mailto:ek.kato@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">ek.kato@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, On 12/9/06, Zach Rowinski <<a href="mailto:zachr@virginia.edu" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">zachr@virginia.edu</a>> wrote: > I am trying to get Tibetan input working on Ubuntu linux using the m17n > library.

We don't have any preferences about uim-m17nlib (i.e. Group pane in preference utility).  It just uses setting in m17nlib itself. If you use m17nlib's IM wit uim, please make sure to have m17n-*-* IMs in "Enabled input methods" in "Global settings" pane in uim-pref-gtk. Then start an application and switch IM to m17n-*-* using uim's toolbar (either applet or toolbar).
