Which terminal are you using?

There are various places for it to go wrong, so perhaps you could be a
bit more specific about the steps that you took.   
I don't have RH9 with which to test it, but in RH 7.x 
kinput-canna worked.   

However, it might not work in the default gnome terminal. 

If scim-anthy is available in RH's yum collection, I would try using
that.  I would attempt to use it with uxterm as a preliminary test.
