If you use the OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 m156 packages built for Dapper
Drake, shouldn't SCIM run fine 'out of the box' ?

Now, if you are trying to run the OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 built by the
official OOo homepage, then please check out this SCIM entry in the
Wiki:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM

Yes, it is not working out of the box.
But the gcc C++ ABI compatibility issue is not going away for a while
I am afraid.

Also, is this guide by Mr. Bass for Ubuntu Hoary still useful for Dapper Drake?
