Is removing ibus enough?

  1. Run qtconfig-qt4 → Interface tab
  2. Set Default Input Method to xim

If for some reasons didn't work, try using im-config:

  1. Check for available & default input systems:

    $ im-config -l
    ibus xim
    
    $ im-config -m
    default
    ibus
    ibus
    
  2. Set other one, xim is the standard for X server

    im-config -n xim

    I am using Kubuntu 14.04.

    I had to completely remove ibus because not only it bugged chromium, but also I do not need it at all.

    Unfortunately, I have the feeling it is not completely disabled because I have warning messages in some application logs:

    x@aspire6930g:~$ konsole
    QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
    QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
    x@aspire6930g:~$ Bus::open: Connect ibus failed!
    IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon 
    

    As the ibus package no longer exists on my system, there is no ibus-daemon.

    My question is : what additional step should I perform to tell the system that I do not use ibus ?

    Perfect ! It works fine. I had to install qt4-qtconfig which was not installed.

    By the way, the Google Chromium ibus bug looks fixed now. I enabled ibus ok and it works fine.
