How to set up pinyin input in Qubes
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The pinyin input method will be installed in a TemplateVM to make it available after restarts and across multiple AppVMs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. In a TemplateVM, install `ibus-pinyin` via the package manager or terminal.
|
||
|
|
If the template is Fedora-based, run `sudo dnf install ibus-pinyin`.
|
||
|
|
If the template is Debian-based, run `sudo apt install ibus-pinyin`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Shut down the TemplateVM.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Start or restart an AppVM based on the template in which you installed `ibus-pinyin` and open a terminal.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. Run `ibus-setup`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5. You will likely get an error message telling you to paste the following into your bashrc:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
|
||
|
|
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
|
||
|
|
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Copy the text into your `~/.bashrc` file with your favorite text editor.
|
||
|
|
You will need to do this for any AppVM in which you wish to use pinyin input.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6. Set up ibus input as you like using the graphical menu (add pinyin or intelligent pinyin to selections).
|
||
|
|
You can bring the menu back by issuing `ibus-setup` from a terminal.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7. Set up your shortcut for switching between inputs.
|
||
|
|
By default it is super-space.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If `ibus-pinyin` is not enabled when you restart one of these AppVMs, open a terminal and run `ibus-setup` to activate ibus again.
