[QnA] SCIM setting in Debian.. again...

I installed the Debian in one of my PC, but then reinstalled it to give a disk space for the LFS. After the reinstallation, I forgot how to install and set up the SCIM... AGAIN... I even forgot I've had an article about this issue in my own blog HERE. Orz

This time, my procedures are the follows:
# apt-get install scim scim-chinese scim-tables-zh
# vim /etc/X11/Xsession.d/95xinput
/usr/bin/scim -d
XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
export XMODIFIERS
And didn't get what I want, so I kept tring
# vim /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL
XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
QT_IM_MODULE="scim"
Then the SCIM setting had been completed.

Finally, I installed the Japanese and Chinese imput methods to which I used.
# aptitude install scim-anthy scim-chewing

(Later, I removed
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/95xinput, and everything works well so far.)
