我在ubuntu中文社区发现了likey网友转发的有关怎样在英文系统的ubuntu中使用SCIM输入中文的好文章，现特此与大家分享。我今天试过了，在FC7中，这个方法同样适用。我现在就是在英文系统的FC7中用SCIM输入中文。

按照如下方法，应该没问题的，我就是这样的：
Chinese Input for Ubuntu Hoary:
(version française) (http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=17862#p17862)
1) install the following packages:
* scim
* scim-chinese
* scim-config-socket
* scim-frontend-socket
* scim-gtk2-immodule
* scim-server-socket
* scim-tables-zh (option)
* xfonts-intl-chinese
* xfonts-intl-chinese-big
* ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp
* ttf-arphic-gkai00mp
* ttf-arphic-bkai00mp
* ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp
accept all dependencies.
2) System -> Preferences -> Sessions
Startup Programs Tab -> Add Button
Startup Command: scim -d
Order: 80
3) Restart Gnome: CTRL+ALT+SUPPR
4) Open any software and press CTRL+SPACE to activate chinese input

IF not working you can as an alternative replace step 2) as follow:
2) alt+F2, gedit
type these few lines:
scim -d
export XMODIFIERS=@im=scim
export GTK_IM_MODULE=scim
gnome-session
Save them under your home directory name: .xsession
Then open a terminal and type:
$chmod +x .xsession
