![]() ![]() General disclaimer: I am still a linux beginner and I've never written an official "tips and tricks" post before, so 1. Scroll down below the quote for specific instructions on my recommendations for better Sanskrit input.įor anyone having difficulty setting up their system to handle Sanskrit input, I'd like to point you to the relevant documentation and provide a few tips to save you a few hours of googling and trial and error. I'll leave the now-obsolete steps previously required for SCIM configuration in a quote below for those on older versions of Ubuntu (or other varieties of Debian), for the sake of reference. Once you hit ctrl-space, the ibus daemon should start up and you can begin typing in Devanagari by adding the Hindi Itrans input to your keyboard switcher. ![]() That's it - too simple! You may need to log out and log back in (i.e., restart X) for ibus to work. ![]() Then click the button Install / Remove Languages., click Hindi and Apply Changes Go to System > Administration > Language Support, and in the Language Tab select ibus for your "Keyboard Input Method System" For phonetic Devanāgarī, all you need to do is: It is now ready to go practically out of the box and setting up phonetic देवनागरी and Transliteration inputs is a trivial affair. Update: In the new releases since this post was written, Ubuntu has come a very long way with preconfiguring the input method editor, now ibus (formerly SCIM), for us.
