RaduÂs entry nonetheless, took me the best part of two nights to decipher.
In simpler terms, this is how I got the keyboard to work in tor browser
(under Ubuntu 13.10 3.11.0-14-generic HP Pavilion dv9843cl with 4 GB and
500 MB hdd 7200):
1. Open a terminal [Ctrl]+[Alt]+T
2. Type/copy and paste Âcd ~/.tor-browser-en/INSTALLÂ (not the single
qoute marks!)
3. Type/copy and paste Âgksu gedit ./start-tor-browserÂ
4. In the window that pops up, on the 3rd line type Âexport
GTK_IM_MODULE=ximÂ. The end result will show the following in the first
five lines:
1 #!/bin/sh
2 #
3 export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
4 #
5 # GNU/Linux does not really require something like RelativeLink.c
5. Save the above. Close tor, reopen it and give it a try. Hopefully this
will do it until a permanent fix is worked out!
Toodles!
