it's not correct. httx will be run from xinput script, but
not IIim initrc script. for before xinitrc 4.0.1, it should
works as long as you have proper locale (in this case, even
LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 is enough) in .i18n or
/etc/sysconfig/i18n. however if you have installed 3.40 or
3.41, you have to upgrade it to 3.42-1, because it allowed to
run xinitrc script which has only .sh extension, but xinput
script was missing .sh. so xinput script didn't work
properly. (see Bug#122869)
for xinitrc 4.0.1-1, even if you added LC_CTYPE in .i18n, it
doesn't work unfortunately because of Bug#127746.
