[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#693516: ibus: language bar does not work with multiple monitors
Package: ibus
Version: 1.4.1-8
Severity: critical
Tags: patch
Justification: breaks unrelated software
language bar does not work with multiple monitors
Without language bar under ibus, it makes all keyboard imnput prectically
impossible under some conditions. So very bad for any program waiting
for input.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. boot in TwinView mode
2. enable an IME using keyboard
3. language bar does not appear
4. disable external monitor using Nvidia utility
5. language bar now appears
6. re-enable TwinView
7. language bar still works
8. restart Ibus
9. language bar no longer appears
This was reported to FEDORA and UBUNTU. Debian should be affected and
need fix.
