And now, it becomes more interesting.  I also installed it on the
ArchLinux version I have here, and once again, everything worked without
problem.  Not sure what the problem is on the ArchLinux install I have
at work, but I'm suspecting it's some sort of stupid user error.


FWIW on the installation where it works I call it this way


#!/bin/bash
XMODIFIERS="@example.com=kinput2" LANGUAGE=C LC_CTYPE=ja_JP ${1+"$@"} &

save the below as a script called langx and just type (from the ~
directory

langx OpenOffice-1(whatever--in a different install right now)/soffice

So, again, not sure what went wrong on the other installation but in
general, it seems to be working, on both Gentoo and Arch.
