       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

       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.
