DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the fbterm_ucimf commands.

       fbterm_ucimf  is  a  program  that  providing  an  interface  for  fbterm  using ucimf, the Linux unicode
       framebuffer consle input method framework.

       This program is intended to be work with a  non-setuid  fbterm  using  fbterm  -i  fbterm_ucimf  command,
       however because of some unresolved problem in fbterm package this aim has not been achieved yet.

       Currently  this  program  is  the  only known working solution to start ucimf in Debian. Setuid fbterm is
       required, use command chown root:utmp /usr/bin/fbterm to change its user/group to  root/utmp,  and  chmod
       6755  /usr/bin/fbterm  to change make it setuid.  After doing so users without root privilege are able to
       load the input method with fbterm -i  fbterm_ucimf  while  starting  fbterm,  then  press  Ctrl+Space  to
       activate the input method, and Ctrl+Shift to switch among the input methods to find your preferred one.
