After installing Linux Mint, I found that there was no Chinese Input Method in the system.

After Linux Mint is installed, it is found that there is no Chinese Input Method in the system. Some installation packages fail to be downloaded during automatic update after the language is supported.

You can use the following method to install the Chinese input method.

1. Install iBus:

Sudo add-apt-repository ppa: shawn-p-huang/ppa
Sudo apt-get update

Sudo apt-get install ibus-gtk ibus-pinyin-db-open-phrase

2. Open the language support and select update. Then, it will download a series of related installation packages.

3. After the update, ibus will appear in the drop-down box of the keyboard input mode system column at the bottom of the language column. Select ibus

4. the iBus icon is displayed in the lower-right corner of the taskbar. After you click the left button, you can select Chinese-Pinyin. If you select preferences, you can perform other configurations. In the input method column, you can customize the activity input method and set the default input method.

Now you can enter Chinese characters.
