First, please examine the problem is really specific on jfbterm.
Trying to use uim-fep on terminal software on X11 may help.

 e.g.

  $ export LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
  $ GTK_IM_MODULE=gtk-im-context-simple gnome-terminal &
  $ uim-fep  # on gnome-terminal

If it works, then the problem is something on jfbterm.


If it doesn't work, please check whether its on/off key is assigned
correctly using uim-pref-gtk.  (Assume you use uim-anthy, check "Anthy
key binding 2").

As described in the release note about 1.2.0
(http://anonsvn.freedesktop.org/svn/uim/tags/1.2.0/RELNOTE), C-j is
not used as a default on/off key binding in uim-anthy.  Also you
should be aware that shift-space combination is not available on
console (See README.ja and README.key on uim-fep,
http://anonsvn.freedesktop.org/svn/uim/tags/1.2.1/fep/).
