Input method doesn't work with QT applications. Anyone able to type Chinese into QT apps?

Hi Yuri,
First of all, You do not specify what shell you are using. TCSH or BASH?
Second, waht DE you using too?

for TCSH, it should be this in your ~/.xinitrc
setenv XMODIFIERS='@im=gcin'
setenv GTK_IM_MODULE=gcin
setenv QT_IM_MODULE=gcin

I guess you are using TCSH not BASH.
gcin can let you type chinese in GTK apps without set GTK_IM_MODULE

You can check the SHELL VARIABLE that is set or not after logged-in X.
