## Tested environments

The IBM SDK for Linux, v5.0 was tested using multiple Linux distributions, windows managers, and input methods.

The following Japanese environments were tested for the IBM SDK for Linux platforms, Java 2 Technology Edition, Version 5.0.

Table 1. Tested environments
Distribution | Desktop or window manager | Input method
--- | --- | ---
Novell Linux Desktop 9 for x86 SP1 | KDE3-3.2.1 | kinput2-v3.1 Canna-3.7p1
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 for x86 with Service Pack 1 | KDE3-3.2.1 | kinput2-v3.1 Canna-3.7p1
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 for AMD64 & Intel EM64T with Service Pack 1 | KDE3-3.2.1 | kinput2-v3.1 Canna-3.7p1
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS v.3 for x86 with Update4 | GNOME-2.2.2 | kinput2-canna-wnn6-v3.1 Canna 3.6-20 FreeWnn 1.11-36.3
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS v.3 for AMD64/Intel EM64T with Update4 | GNOME-2.2.2 | kinput2-canna-wnn6-v3.1 Canna 3.6-20 FreeWnn 1.11-36.3

## Displaying Japanese halfwidth Katakana characters

Halfwidth Katakana characters might not be displayed correctly because of the lack of font data for those characters.

## Japanese Kana-Kanji conversion

On Japanese versions of Linux, you can use a Japanese input method such as Canna or FreeWnn.

### Input Method Editor (IME)

Known limitations and solutions for IME users.

If you use an IME on a TextArea or a TextField component with Motif AWT, the composed text is sometimes displayed in the wrong position. To avoid this problem, do not change the component position vertically after you commit a string. If you do encounter this problem, reactivate the IME; the composed text is then displayed at the correct position. The committed text is always displayed at the correct position.

If you are using kinput2 as the input method server, do not use the Close button on the window frame because kinput2 might be stopped by this operation.

If you are using IIIMF as the input method server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Java requires the IIIMF packages (iiimf-*-12.1.13.EL.2) or higher. These packages are included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 2 or later.

### Canna

Limitations using Canna with quoted-insert-mode.

If you switch to quoted-insert-mode by pressing Ctrl + Q, entering control characters might cause unexpected behavior. To avoid this problem, disable quoted-insert-mode by adding the following line to $HOME/.canna. If $HOME/.canna does not exist, copy default.canna to the home directory as $HOME/.canna and add the following line:

    (global-unbind-key-function 'quoted-insert)

### FreeWnn

If you are using FreeWnn, the numpad Enter key might not create a new line and a carriage return while the Input Method Editor (IME) is activated. To create a new line and carriage return, deactivate the IME.

# AMD64 and Intel EM64T architecture
