How to set up pinyin input in Qubes
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Don't try to install anything in Dom0.
|
|
|
|
2. Choose a TemplateVM in which you will be using pinyin input on AppVM
|
|
instances thereof and open a terminal there.
|
|
|
|
3. Issue `sudo yum install ibus-pinyin` (or, for a Debian template,
|
|
`sudo apt-get install ibus-pinyin`).
|
|
|
|
4. Close and shut down the TemplateVM.
|
|
|
|
5. Restart an AppVM which inherits from the template and open a terminal.
|
|
|
|
6. Issue `ibus-setup`.
|
|
|
|
7. You will likely get the error message telling you to paste
|
|
|
|
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
|
|
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
|
|
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
|
|
|
|
into your bashrc.
|
|
|
|
Copy the text, and then issue: `sudo nano ~/.bashrc`
|
|
Paste the text into the bottom of the file and press ctrl-x to save and
|
|
close.
|
|
You will need to do this on any AppVM in which you wish to use pinyin input.
|
|
|
|
8. Setup 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.
|
|
|
|
9. Use super-space as you are used to using to switch between pinyin-unicode and
|
|
Latin character input.
|
|
|
|
10. Whenever you restart one of these AppVMs, you will need to open a terminal
|
|
and issue `imsettings-switch ibus` to activate ibus.
