Prompt input issue in Cursor’s input box has remained unresolved since early versions

Hey, thanks for the report and the screenshot. I can see the chat input (Ask mode, Auto). Latin characters work fine there, and that matches a known IME issue on Linux where the first character won’t type into an empty field. We’ve seen similar reports from Korean users on IBus and Chinese users on fcitx5. I can’t share an ETA for a fix yet.

To narrow it down, can you tell me:

  • Which IME framework are you using, IBus, fcitx5, or something else?
  • Are you on X11 or Wayland?

For now, here’s a workaround that’s helped other users. Type any Latin character or a space first, then switch to the Korean IME. Not perfect, but it avoids having to copy paste from another app.

Let me know if the workaround helps.
