Oups... I pressed the wrong key...

Just to finish my previous message:

Thank you very much, it solved my problem.

However I think it would be more user-friendy if it was done automatically.

If I understand well, on a fresh installation of dapper drake, there is some test done when a session is opened to decide if SCIM should be used as the default input method or not.

My understanding is that the current test is:
-If the language of the session uses SCIM, then use SCIM as the default input method

My suggestion is to use this test instead:
-If a language pack using SCIM was installed on the workstation, then use SCIM as the default input method

This way, SCIM will be easily available for those who needs it (i.e. the people who took time to install new language packs), but it won't annoy (with confusion, instability, or whatever problem it could bring) people who don't care.

I it can technically be done simply it would be great...
