"*Please install ibus-m17n package* *Once that is done, in Language Support - select ibus as the input method* *Run ibus-setup command and add required keyboard layouts in second tab (kn-itrans, inscript etc)"* Anyway Solved the problem. I am using kn-itrans -which is phonetic keyboard just like barahaIME. Thanks to all.
