Quote:

The language for everything is English

And that's why you don't have the same problem The problem is caused because I want to have
everything in Chinese, but for things that don't have Chinese I want it to use a nice looking
font. Unfortunately, for whatever reason (most likely related to the fact that I did a Chinese
install), for ASCII text, the font-matching algorithm always chooses a Chinese font ahead of a
non-Chinese font and the Chinese fonts have ugly looking English letters. If I set everything to
English then I can have nice looking fonts without any problems. If I set everything to Chinese
and then override the font-config settings to force a nice looking English font to be chosen ahead
of a Chinese font, then it breaks the display of Chinese characters for all GTK apps (not just
SCIM).

When I've got some time, I'm going to try upgrading to a more recent version and see if that fixes
things.
