I just found that this problem is not present in Debian testing, even if they have the same version of both mutter and ibus. Something seems to make Xwayland start at login, and hence ibus-x11 is also running.
That speaks against using im-config to work around it, since im-config is used by both Debian and Ubuntu. I think we need to ask the Ubuntu desktop folks for advice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946969 Title: ibus-x11 does not start automatically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1946969/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
