Where to you set them?
Are they present in the environment used by the KDE starter script "startkde"?
I.e. testing it bydoing ALT+F2, typing
env > /tmp/env.txt

and checking if the three variable as present and correctly set 
in /tmp/env.txt

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your reply.  I think I have fixed the problem installing scim-qtimm.  I \
will need to test a bit further but it looks better.

The documentation I used is here:

http://scim.sourceforge.net/skim/doc/user/en/#using-skim

I am using SuSE 10.2 but the guide refers to Gentoo.

I put the environment variables in my .profile and they are set correctly:

> env|egrep 'XMODIFIERS|GTK_IM_MODULE|QT_IM_MODULE'
QT_IM_MODULE=scim
XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM
GTK_IM_MODULE=scim

Thanks

Murray
