Ubuntu12.10 install the Chinese Input Method (ibus) and automatically start the ibus application upon startup

After the system is upgraded to 12.10, Chinese characters cannot be used. Because the system used scim input before, the new system integrates the ibus Input Method Framework. It may be due to a conflict. The installation failed as prompted on the Internet. When using scim, the browser can only enter Chinese characters. After nearly a week, I suddenly logged on to Ubuntu and finally found the answer:

Ibus stands for Intelligent Input bus for Linux/Unix OS, which is the next-generation Input Method Framework (or "Platform "), the project is now available in Google Code-http://code.google.com/p/ibus/, which includes text input requirements for most languages in the world-maintained by developers in multiple countries around the world. It exists to replace the old scim, and most Linux distributions have used it to replace scim.

Ibus is a framework that supports multiple input methods.

Problem 1: the built-in Pinyin input method is incorrect in Ubuntu. It cannot input Chinese and Chinese phrases by default. Please install other ibus-based input methods independently.
Problem 2: The ibus1.2.0 version of Ubuntu has a bug. After the backspace key is used to delete characters, the input method cannot continue to work. Use the third-party source of PPA to upgrade ibus to version 1.3.6 or later. (The official Ubuntu software source has not been updated to the latest version)

How to upgrade ibus with the third-party source of PPA:

Enter at the terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:shawn-p-huang/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ibus-gtk ibus-qt4 ibus-pinyin ibus-pinyin-db-open-phrase
Next, use the taskbar-Input Method-After restarting.

Install the commonly used PinYin Input Method ibus-pinyin:
Enter at the terminal:

sudo apt-get install ibus-pinyin ibus-pinyin-db-android 
Or click Application> Ubuntu Software Center in the upper left corner to search for ibus-pinyin in the search box on the right and install ibus-Pinyin and ibus-pinyin-db-android.
  
  

   
   

     After the installation is complete, click system> preference> ibus preference in the upper left corner to switch to the input method tab. Click Add Chinese in the drop-down list box on the left and click Add. 
   
  
  
Delete all the items except pinyin.
Then you can press Ctrl + space to switch between the English and Pinyin input methods.

Install common five-stroke input methods:
Enter at the terminal:

sudo apt-get install ibus-table-wubi 
For other operations, use Alt + shift on the left to switch between Pinyin and five strokes.

Install another Pinyin input method, ibus-sunpinyin, which is suitable for a large number of input.
Perform the following steps:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ibus-dev/ibus-1.3-lucid 
(Add PPA in this step)

sudo apt-get install ibus-sunpinyin

Note that the ibus application cannot be loaded every time the system starts. This is a lot of trouble. If you start ibus automatically after each boot, follow these steps:
No matter which version your system is, find the language support application, find the keyboard input method system setting item (the default value is none), and select the ibus item.
