Hi, All:

The system is guixSD 0.14 with standard desktop for xfce and GNOME.

Chinese font is installed.
fcitx is installed and setup for same user.

When logged in under xfce: fcitx Chinese input works.
When logged in under GNOME: fcitx Chinese input does not work.

Does anybody have the same issue?

best regards,
wxie

Hi,

did you install fcitx:gtk3 ?

What does fcitx-diagnose say?

I’m using ibus with ibus-libpinyin only, so I haven’t experienced this
problem myself.

It may be good to know, though, that GNOME plans to only use ibus as its
one input method engine, so I don’t know if a fix here will survive for
a long time.

Hi, Danny:

Please refer to the output of fcitx-diagnose for both xfce and gnome. There
is not much difference.
You can see that gtk3 is installed.

Let me know if you need further information.

Hi, Ricardo:

Thanks for the information.
I used ibus pinyin with Emacs, but there is some problem: sometimes the
cursor position is not correct, and this slows down input speed.

Do you have this problem?
