[Bug 1258778] Re: IBus input candidates not shown in GNOME Fallback session

 

Added gnome-flashback since this may also be aflashback problem if ibus
works elsewhere, and salty-horse also reported the non-working status on
14.04 LTS.

An upstream flashback bug has been fixed at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759083, but they said it will
be a separate problem for Ubuntu.

** Also affects: gnome-flashback (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #759083

Title:
  IBus input candidates not shown in GNOME Fallback session

Status in gnome-flashback package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ibus package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I was able to add "Chinese (Pinyin)" as input method in Ubuntu 13.10's
  new "Text Entry Settings". Switching between "English (US)" and
  Chinese entry works for me, generally. When I'm using the "Ubuntu
  (Default)" (Unity) session, input candidates are also properly shown
  (a little floating window that shows candidate Chinese characters
  while typing).

  However, when I use the "GNOME Fallback" or "GNOME with Xmonad"
  session, as I normally do, the candidates do not show up at all. This
  makes Pinyin input useless.

  OS and package versions:

  ke@apis:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:	13.10
  ke@apis:~$ apt-cache policy ibus
  ibus:
