Chinese input method problems ubuntu 16.04












0















I want to use IBus for Chinese input in Ubuntu 16.04.
It seems that i have installed the Chinese input method as shown in the drop down menu.
But when I switched to the Chinese input, I still can't type Chinese.
I can't open Text Entry Settings.
I have googled it for a while. But I still not solving this problem.
Is there any way to fix it?



My input method configuration is as follows:




Current configuration for the input method:




  • Active configuration: ibus (normally missing)

  • Normal automatic choice: ibus (normally ibus or fcitx or uim)

  • Override rule:
    zh_CN,fcitx:zh_TW,fcitx:zh_HK,fcitx:zh_SG,fcitx:ja_JP,fcitx:ko_KR,fcitx:vi_VN,fcitx

  • Current override choice: fcitx (zh_CN)

  • Current automatic choice: fcitx

  • Number of valid choices: 3 (normally 1)

  • The override rule is defined in /etc/default/im-config.

  • The configuration set by im-config is activated by re-starting X.

  • Explicit selection is not required to enable the automatic configuration if the active one is default/auto/cjkv/missing.

  • Available input methods: ibus fcitx xim

  • Unless you really need them all, please make sure to install only one input method tool.
