[SCIM] Pinyin and Tables disappeared from the menu.

[Zhe Su]

I just noticed that, you used "scim -f sokcet -e uim,m17n -c simple
-d" to start scim background daemon. But the option "-e uim,m17n"
tells scim to only load uim and m17n module. Then of course pinyin and
all table based module won't be loaded.

So if you want to load all modules, just use the command "scim -f
socket -ne socket -c simple -d" to start scim background daemon.
