Upgraded to xorg-x11-7.1 and found java applications that used to work now seg. fault upon starting. Web page containing java applets will also not displayed. I have XIM started in .xprofile as follows: export LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.utf-8" export GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx export XMODIFIERS="@im=fcitx" export XIM=fcitx export XIM_PROGRAM=fcitx fcitx & When I have fcitx commented out and restart my desktop (KDE), java applications starts normally again. I have tried switching to scim with the same result. Disable the XIM program and java applications starts normally. Re-emerge libX11 doesn't help. Below is the screen output when I start a java program from a terminal. $ ./ganttproject.sh 2006-6-6 18:36:04 org.bardsoftware.impl.eclipsito.BootImpl run 信息: Eclipsito platform is running. # # An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x9d9cfa86, pid=14111, tid=2638535584 # # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_06-b05 mixed mode) # Problematic frame: # C [libX11.so.6+0x5ea86] _XimProtoOpenIM+0x1f6 # # An error report file with more information is saved as /tmp/hs_err_pid14111.log # # If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit: # http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport/crash.jsp # ./ganttproject.sh: line 23: 14111 Aborted $JAVA_COMMAND -Xmx256m -classpath $CLASSPATH:$LOCAL_CLASSPATH $BOOT_CLASS $CONFIGURATION_FILE $*

I also have an issue with Sun JDK bringing down the X server when I try to open java applets on firefox (happens with epiphany also). I think it started after the upgrade to xorg-x11-7.1. I don't think I have XIM though.
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153880 try this anyone.
Please check whether this is still reproducable with current versions of Xorg and scim in Portage
Please get back to us
