Yes, I'm prepared to install scim*. Eventhough I experienced some problem in the past on Chinese editing in running scim on FC3 compelling me to run BV1aL (Chinese Knoppix) Live CD for Chinese input. I would like to have another trial. Would runing; # yum install scim* installs all necessary packages for inputing Chinese. I'm experienced on Jianyi, Cangji input. B.R. SL
