"To make Linux applications usable worldwide, with no inequity between Western dialects and the rest of the world's many languages, you must be able to deliver localized versions that input, store, retrieve, and render any language, no matter how complex. The multilingualization library, or m17n, provides a single internationalization solution for all languages on UNIX-like platforms."

SCIM works for me on (Slackware) Linux in Koffice, Opera, and Limewire (though I haven't figured out how to get java to show UTF8 yet). What you need to do is set some environmental variables:
XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM
GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
QT_IM_MODULE=xim
export XMODIFIERS GTK_IM_MODULE QT_IM_MODULE
just letting you know
