Marc, you don't need to remove the package ibus, just disable it as
suggested by Salvatore: start menu > Preferences > Language Support >
Keyboard Input Method System: none.

That worked fine for me

Title:
  Gedit uses 100% of the CPU while editing files

Status in gedit:
  New
Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gedit

  Making changes to a file(typing or deleting characters) makes gedit consume 100% of the CPU power available.
  I noticed this since I've installed Ubuntu 9.04. 

  I was poking in the fonts setting under the appearance preferences and
  I thought I noticed a slight difference if I turn off all processing
  and make the font glyph render without subpixel rendering and hinting.
  However it is merely marginal. To make sure it was not the graphics
  drivers I switched from the ati drivers to vesa but that did not help
  at all.

  I am running on a 5 years old Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop with Radeon Mobility 7500(details in lspci-vvnn.log provided in link below), with 256MiB of RAM.
