I have since clarified that problem 2 from comment #4 above is not valid, and was related to the specific application we were using.
So, in summary, there does NOT seem to be any issue with setting ibus as the "keyboard input method" in Language Support. But, problem 1 from comment #4 above regarding needing to use the Debian versions of ibus instead of the patched Ubuntu versions remains valid and true for Precise, Oneiric, and I am assuming others. Whatever is in the ubuntu patched version BREAKS gui use of ibus! I have re-packaged ibus from debian in my ppa, so anyone wanting to confirm it solves their problems is welcome to try the packages from the ppa (if you add the ppa, on next dist-upgrade it should pull them in automatically): https://launchpad.net/~wasta-linux/+archive/wasta -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1023165 Title: Can't change IBus input method using menu in Unity To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1023165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
