I am pretty much working but since I installed scim and am switching
between Chinese and English, I can no longer use some of my keys...

<DELETE> doesn't appear to do anything
<Arrow Up> doesn't appear to do anything
<Arrow Down> appears to perform like pressing <Enter>

yet if I open xev, I can see the keycodes are being sent.

and if I quit scim, it doesn't fix anything.

I think this happened once I configured KDE systemsettings and added
Chinese language but I removed it now and still, no change. Setup in
systemsettings/Region & Language only shows US English and keyboard is
still Evdev-managed keyboard and only USA layout.

Well....

I don't have your problems but I don't have your settings either....

In "Region & Language" I have nothing installed. Above the box were
languages would be listed it shows: "Country or Region: Not set (Generic
English). My keyboard layout is "Disabled".
So I can't figure out that even if I apparently quit scim and put things
back to normal now in KDE systemsettings, why can I not use some of my
keys?

I think it can only be caused by either a settings change or a package
installation and knowing that the key behavior is both GNOME & KDE
(happens in Evolution, OpenOffice, Konsole and every other program I
try), I don't think this is a systemsettings thing but I removed the
Chinese keyboard in Regional & Language/Keyboard and unset the country
or region setting to 'not set (Generic English)' like yours. I cannot
remove the US English installed language and have logged off and logged
back on but no change.

these are the only packages that I have installed in the past few
days...

Thanks...I am at a loss as to what is causing this but it's irritating
not to be able to use the 'delete' key.

On the bright side, I can type Chinese...well in the same sense that
Bill Murray could play the piano because his father was a piano mover.
