This is how to get Korean input working within Dapper - Gnome,
using nabi as the input method.
Step 1
you need to install the packages nabi and im-switch.
Code:
sudo apt-get install nabi im-switch
Step 2
You will need to setup the environment for gnome to use nabi.
Start by creating a file in your home directory named .gnomerc
Copy and paste the following into the file.
Code:
export XMODIFIERS="@im=nabi"
export XIM_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/nabi
export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
nabi &
Save the file
Step 3
Tell im-switch to use nabi
Now restart the x-server by pressing {Ctrl}-{Alt}-{Backspace}
If you recieve and error (in Korean) or your nabi box is blank all of
the time then your locale setting needs to be changed to a korean
locale or a utf-8 compatible one
eg. en_AU.UTF-8
The button to switch between English/Korean is {shift}-{Space}
You can select other buttons by right clicking the Nabi tray Icon
selecting preferences and then the hangul tab followed by {+add}
I chose the evil windows button as my input switcher (take that ms)
