CentOS - Jul 2009 - how to disable scim

Hello:

I keep getting these

  An IOException occurred at 
scim_bridge_client_imcontext_set_cursor_location ()

messages -- and I'd like to turn them off.  I won't mind having scim 
just plain turned off.
However, in using Google, I find a hint such as "right click on the 
tray, ..." -- so where's
the tray?  A second part of that hint suggested using 
System:Administration:Language
Support -- there's a "Language" (which allows me to select my
default
language) but
nothing about scim.

So, any hints about how to nuke scim?

Regards,
Chip Campbell

I haven't played with scim on CentOS but on Fedora, it seems that
creating a symbolic link in users home directory...

ls -l ~/.xinputrc
.xinputrc -> /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim.conf

is what launches scim at user login

so you might want to look for something like that.
