@Shih-Yuan Lee (fourdollars), I cut and pasted your commands but got the news that the file did not exist on the second command although I could see it and even vi edit it. On the third command I was told that the keyname variables were incorrectly formatted (should not start with a capital letter).
@David, the keyboard icon did not come up. I have a simple one showing Sv (for swedish) or En as alternative. The commands did not change anything, and I changed to Gnome (which I had installed). I normally use Cairo Dock on Gnome. @ Titan Lien (titan-lien), your solution did not work for me either. My solution: I have VirtualBox installed on this machine, so I am creating a 13-04 installation which I shall use for Mandarin till the bug is fixed. :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1241309 Title: Ubuntu 13.10 has no way to change individual input method settings Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “indicator-keyboard” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is a UI problem that happens in Ubuntu 13.10, with the default (Unity) desktop. I live in Taiwan and use Chinese input methods. Other languages may differ. This is how I can change the individual settings of input methods in the old Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: (1) With iBus enabled, click on the "keyboard" icon on the upper right corner of the screen. Then click "Preferences". (2) Set the "Show language panel" option to "Always". (3) The "language panel" will appear somewhere on the screen, click on the "Preferences" icon. (4) Then I can set the options of the current input method, such as "Bopomofo" in the screenshot below.

In Ubuntu 13.10, I don't see any way to show the setting of that "Bopomofo" input method, or "Chewing", or whatever. And there is no option to "Show language panel" either. (screenshot:) https://www.dropbox.com/s/03i3duwmu8wc4mk/ubuntu-ime-individual-settings-3.png This problem is making me inconvenient to use. I hope this could be fixed soon.
