switching between English and Japanese keyboard

 

1. I installed japanese in 'Language Support' but not sure what else should
I do and also what keys are used to switch languages.
2. Also, I notice a selectbox - 'keyboard input method system' but I am not
sure if I need to change it.

3. Also when I login i see 'language' dropdown. the options are: en_AU,
en_CA, en_GB, en_US, zh_CN, zh_HK, zh_TW.
    are those input language or is it for changing the ui of my menus etc?

I read on ubuntu forums that lucid is using IBus instead of scim. not sure
what does it mean though.

Here is my question on ubuntuforums:

Any tips would be great, I am fine with text-based instructions or GUI
(click here, click there, etc).
