I encounter the same problem.
I think the problem is the flashplayer can't get the system.ime.conversation(),
so it can't use a IME.

Is there any other IME can input chinese word in flash?
Or they have a right environ configuration which match flashplayer's taste?

I can use it on my Hardy system.
But I use a clean install, which enables scim-bridge as default IM module.

If you still can't use it with scim-bridge enabled, please post a URL, so that I can try it by myself.

Thanks

Thx replies & advices from everyone.

Specially from Arne.

I still can't use it with scim-bridge,

This is one of flash applications' URL I can't input chinese in.

http://music.sina.com.cn/yueku/m/947719.html (not a permalink)
which is a favorite music online flash application. I can't change IM to
input chinese word in the search box in this application.

Another one is gtalk's gadget. I wish Arne you will have a gmail
account, so you can test it.

I just reported in bug 304683 that I cannot enter any text in flash forms at all. I'll try and see if installing scim-bridge solves the problem. I do have a couple of scim-bridge apps installed, it seems, but not scim-bridge itself.

I finally find out the problem origin.
and find out a way to solve this problem.

We all use 64 bit system, but we use a 32 bit flash and extension

but 32 bit flash can't use or find scim in 64bit system or 64bit SCIM.

When i change the flash player to 64 bit edition from Adobe recently.
This problem solves.

1. I suggest scim deb package should provide 32 bit support in 64bit system.

2. Use flash player for 64 bit edition from Adobe

I try this on my ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 ,Teej

the default package of nonfree-flash and scim or scim-bridge can reproduce the resault.

Problem solve after i install flash player 64bit alpha edition from Adobe.

Is it the very prolem that scim deb package didn't provide 32 bit support in 64bit system?

Can you give me some hint? To test IME can't activate or find problem.

I understand, but can you try this with Intrepid 8.10 please, as this problem may be able to be backported, but Intrepid is the current release.
Thank you.

No luck in 8.10 32-bit either. Using scim 1.4.7, smart pinyin/繁体字.

FWIW, I can't input Japanese (or Chinese) in flash. Scim is notoriously difficult to configure, so it may be PEBKAC, but I wanted to add my 2c here.
