    <para xml:id="selectCountry-pa4" revision="1">In the <emphasis>Other
    Countries</emphasis> screen you can also select an input method (at the
    bottom of the list). Input methods allow users to input multilingual
    characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc). IBus is the default input
    method, so users should not need to configure it manually. Other input
    methods (SCIM, GCIN, HIME, etc) also provide similar functions and can be
    installed if you added HTTP/FTP media before package selection.</para>
