help! my chinput broke down

liqix

when I start chinput,it display:

Chinput Version 3.0.2 -- XIM Server
Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
Basic: Cannot open font -arphic

I have tried many times, but got nothing,could some kind person tell me what "font -arphic"is ,and how can I make my chinput work? or if I don't have font -arphic ,could I use other input mathod?

你用的是什么输入法？fcitx？scim？
你的locales是怎么设置的？一般用zh_CN.utf-8比较好的。
你安装了那些字体包？一般只用站ttf-arphic-uming (好像是这么拼写的)就可以了。
apt-get install ttf-arphic-uming

form your words,maybe I need to install some fonts,I'll try.
thanks again
