New ChuYin Input Method Not Supported in Upgrade
to IIIMF rev.12 (6492129)
When you upgrade the OS to the Solaris 10 6/06 or Solaris 10 11/06 release, the input method
framework and individual input methods get upgraded from rev.10 to rev.12. However,
ChuYin is not in the list of supported input methods. Also, you cannot use the function keys F2
and F3 to switch methods
Workaround: Use PinYin to type traditional Chinese characters with Hanyu PinYin. Use
Ctrl+Shift to switch input methods.

Russian Locales (6487712)

and ru_RU.ANSI1251 locales.
Workaround 1: Switch to the ru_RU.UTF-8 or the ru_RU.ISO8859-5 locale.
Workaround 2: Use IIIMF
TM
instead of the Russian keyboard layout.

Workaround: Follow these steps.
1. As superuser, edit /usr/dt/config/Xservers.

:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/openwin/bin/Xsun :0

■
Comment out the following line:
:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/X11/bin/Xorg :0
2. Reboot the system.
Alternatively, you can log in to ar_EG.UTF-8 or other UTF-8 locales.
