Comment 12 for bug 1514104

Hello,

The GTK_IM_MODULE fix worked for me, thanks for taking the time to explain. I didn’t see the https://bugs.launchpad.net/synapse-project/+bug/1219314 because I didn't know it was related to the input method, sorry about that.

A cleaner solution (Which also won't break when the system is updated) is to create a folder structure in your home like so: ".local/share/applications" and copy the original synapse launcher inside: "cp /usr/share/applications/synapse.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/". Then, edit this file instead with Jeremy's recomendation.

If I may suggest the same as Jeremy, adding it somewhere in the wiki, because it is the first page i checked when the bug first occurred.

Thanks for your help!
