Please log out of your X session and re-login to effect changes.
You may need to restart your X server if a simple logout/login does not work.

To revert the system to the previous state, type the following command:

  rm "${USER_COMPOSE}"

If things don't work after a reboot, make sure your Input Method is configured
to "Auto" in the Gnome Settings.

Operation complete.
