ibus not working

Post by Nagarajan »

Sir,
I succeeded in installing ibus in ubuntu 13.10 lxde and was able to add required language input methods. But when I open libreoffice document and choose the required input method, I get boxes only and find that the related fonts are not selected. When I browsed the fonts, the required fonts were not available. I installed phonetic key input method for Tamil language. But when I changed the input method to Tamil phonetic key board, the input method is displayed in the ibus tray but Lohit Tamil font is not get typed when I type.How to resolve this.

Sir,
In the lxde installed in my tablet only five choices availble - accessories, internet, preferences, run and the logout. How to locate and bring forth the 'system tolls'. Only then i can access synaptic manager. Can you guide me to bring System tools on the main menu

sir,
there's probably more than one ways to find out about your lxde version, but you can always try synaptic packet manager and search for the lxde-desktop meta package (or something liek that). it will show you which version is installed.

please don't edit your first post like this!
those should be two more posts under my reply.
very confusing, in addition to general communication problems.
could a mod bring some order into this?
i know the op has been asked before to not do it, but maybe it becomes clearer if someone just does it?
