OpenSUSE :: Run IBUS Input Method On 11.2?

Jan 16, 2010

I just heard about the newly developed input method IBUS (ibus - Project Hosting on Google Code) the other day. Supposedly, it fixes a number of problems of SCIM (which, unfortunately, is pretty much dead upstream), and both Ubuntu and Fedora are moving toward making IBUS the standard input on their systems.

Interestingly, there's nothing on the openSUSE forums yet, so this thread is supposed to fill the void and become, eventually, a how-to guide for running IBUS on openSUSE 11.2. I've tried to get IBUS running the past few days, but without succcess so far. Perhaps some of you how got it up and running already can help me out?

[Code]...

The IBUS website also mentions the repository Index of /repositories/home:/swyear for openSUSE, but as far as I can see, the IBUS files don't exist there anymore.

Ubuntu :: IBus Just Doesn't Cut It?

Apr 8, 2011

but now I've found an area where linux - or at least Ubuntu - just isn't in the game: inputting Chinese into documents. I've spent half a day trying to get iBus and SCIM to work, and not getting anywhere.

For those who don't yet understand, iBus and SCIM are alternative methods of entering western letters and being able to input a Chinese character in a document. It also works for other languages, like Japanese and Vietnamese, but I'm into Chinese, specifically Simplified Chinese.

On my Mac, I configured the machine for Chinese input and it just worked. Even on my wife's Windows machine, I configured the machine for Chinese input and it just worked. Not so on my linux - Ubuntu 10.04 - box. It just didn't work.

Nineteen times out of twenty I couldn't get the keyboard icon to display. When I did, I couldn't get it to select an input method (except once). And that once I couldn't get it to input anything. Most of the time it let me know that there was no input window, although I had both LibreOffice and Gtext windows open.

but I'll try again in a few years. It's going to take at least that long to make iBus and SCIM work. Normally I find that if I can do it on the Mac or in Windows, I can do it in linux, but this is one area where there's a lot of work yet to be done.

Debian :: CJK Input Via Ibus Does Not Work

Nov 13, 2015

I am running Debian 8.2 (Jessie) with KDE 4.14.2. I use ibus to enter CJK characters. ibus is setup "the manual way" from URL....

Code: Select allexport GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

CJK input via ibus works for Qt4 applications such as Kate and Kwrite.However, CJK input via ibus does not work automatically with Qt5 applications, such as sqlitebrowser. I can get ibus running with Qt5 applications if I launch the application from the console like this:

Code: Select allQT_IM_MODULE=ibus sqlitebrowser

Is there way I can get ibus working with Qt5 applications automically without needing to add "QT_IM_MODULE=ibus" all the time?

Apr 18, 2010

Since I updated to Fedora 12, I've been using ibus-anthy to input Japanese.Unfortunately is lacking of handwriting input, something that scim was offering through scim-tomoe. Is there any chance to put Tomoe in use with ibus? Or any alternative solution that works on Fedora? I can't figure out how to use WriteRecogn btw.

Fedora Installation :: Cannot Update Ibus ?

May 7, 2010

I installed F12 few weeks ago and successfully upgraded it with yum (so that known PackageKit bug was gone). There was a few more successful updates until ibus update was out. ibus related packages can not update, another packages update without errors:

Quote:

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

Using --skip-broken doesn't sound good, so it's gonna be a last effort.

Ubuntu :: Using Ibus On Maverick Meerkat

Oct 19, 2010

Ibus is very familiar to some users. And they find only one way to use Ibus as their keyboard layout. But its not possible to use ibus on Maverick Meerkat by default. you need to follow some instruction to do that. Here I am telling how I have done this...

Go to System> Administration> Synaptic Package Manager (you have to give your password) type " ibus-m17 " on search box. then just install the one appears. After installation the package, just close the synaptic. Now you are done to use Ibus.

Now go to System>Administration>Language Support (it may ask you to install the Language support, just click on the "Remind me later") Then select ' ibus ' from the "Keyboard input method system" under the Language tab.

Then close the window and restart the PC.

Thats the work I have done to get the iBus on Maverick Meerkat.

Ubuntu :: Japanese Input (Anthy) With IBus

Mar 4, 2011

For years I have been using scim-anthy for Japanese input under Linux. However just moving to ubuntu 10.10 I noticed that the development for scim has ceased and lots of people recommend moving to ibus. So I tried: I got ibus and ibus-anthy installed. I choose ibus as keyboard method input system under System->Adminsitration->Language Support ibus is up and running. I can see the icon. In ibus opreferences I added anthy under Input methods. I restarted X resp. the whole computer. I can choose Japanese-Anthy when clicking on the ibus icon. But nothing happens. I am still writing latin characters, no anthy popped up (like it used with scim), nothing.

Ubuntu :: IBus - No Input Window In Gnome 3

May 16, 2011

I recently installed gnome 3, using the ppa -> dist-upgrade -> install gnome-shell method. IBus used to work fine with gnome 2.3 and unity, but in gnome 3, the icon is still there, the deamon is still running (I presume) but no matter where i click, it always shows 'no input window'... (for example, i can't type anything other than English here...).

Ubuntu :: Make Ibus Start Up Automatically And Quitely?

Jan 20, 2011

I used to input Chinese with scim input method, which can be trigered by Ctrl^Space. But this time, I reinstalled ubuntu 10.04, I have to manually start up ibus from System>Preference>ibus firstly before I can triger the input method by Ctrl^Space.

This is not over, the key problem is there are several dialogues to click "ok" with before I can really use the scim.

How can I make this ibus startup automatically and quitely?

I tried put command "ibus -setup" into my .profile, it does start up the ibus automatically every time when I login, but the dialogues still bothering me.

Slackware :: Ctrl+Space Not Work On SCIM Or IBus

Mar 7, 2010

The magic key Ctrl+Space doesnt always work with SCIM. Too tired with SCIM, I decided to remove it and install ibus, ibus-qt, ibus-unikey (for typing Vietnamese).

Then, I start it with:

Code:

Then I try press Ctrl+Space to trigger but it doesnt work, even it quits itself sometimes.

The hotkey problem also occurs with KNotes. I have set Global Shortcut for some functions such as New Note, Show All Notes. And it works only once in that session. If restart machine, those shortcut is useless.

My system is Slackware 13.0 with KDE.

Debian Multimedia :: When Quit Ibus Iceweasel And Icedove Crash

Apr 13, 2016

I am recent convert from Arch GNU/Linux after deciding that it's free software or bust. I'm enamored by your project (free software + large user base + stable releases supported for many years = precious, one-of-a-kind distro) and hope I can soon start contributing.

Anyway, I'm on Debian 8.4 with MATE, only main repo enabled, all packages up-to-date. I turn on ibus (via a keyboard shortcut that runs "ibus-daemon -dx") when I need to type in Portuguese or Esperanto. When I'm done, I quit ibus either by right-clicking its tray icon and choosing "quit" or by using a keyboard shortcut to "killall ibus-daemon". Unfortunately, regardless of how I quit ibus, iceweasel and icedove crash every time ibus quits.

I tried running ibus with "ibus-daemon -d" instead of the above command. Now there are no crashes when I quit ibus BUT iceweasel and icedove ignore ibus altogether (i.e., I cannot type special characters--keyboard input is as if ibus were off).

How to start and stop ibus in a way that both a) causes it to work in all applications including iceweasel and icedove AND b) iceweasel and icedove don't crash when ibus quits?

Ubuntu :: SCIM Stopped Working, But Ibus Doesn't Work Either?

Mar 6, 2010

upgrading to9.10 I suddenly was unable use SCIM to switch language input methods.After searching around, I discovered that with Ubuntu 9.10 Ibus was being used in place of SCIM. That's all fine and good, but I can't get Ibus to work. Specifically, when I open the Ibus settings pane and add my desired languages, the settings aren't saved when I exit.So I tried switching back to SCIM. I changed my bashrc settings and set the keyboard input in language settings back to SCIM. No nice.Honestly, I just want to be able to swich language input methods--I don't care if I use SCIM or Ibus.
