Hi Everyone
I really need to have Japanese input on my computer. I had an old
installation of Trisquel from about a year ago. I got things working but
after I restarted I could not get things to work again.
I have just freshly installed 7.0 Gnome 64 bit.
I have run updates and installed VLC and Icedove but no other application
other then ibus-anthy otherwise so I pretty much have a clean install.
I ran ibus-setup.These are the changes:
I added Japanese
I clicked use system keyboard layout
clicked show icon in system tray
show property panel to always.
Under System Settings I clicked on Language and Support. I added Japanese and
left keyboard input as ibus.
Things are weird.
If I type meta space and hold space for a second a icon pops up showing the
keyboard switching between Japanese and English .
If I type ibus-daemon, I get:
current session already has an ibus-daemon.
Something is switching. If I go to Japanese the special keys like @, # etc
all work differently but when I type:
"wa" I just get wa, it does not switch to hiragana or Kanji.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, I feel I am so close but I am also
stuck.
Thanks for reading-Patrick
