You can type any Unicode character on Ubuntu by pressing ctrl+shift+u
and then typing in the hexadecimal codepoint.

Which I suspect is only actively supported for use in the Latin
script.

As for typing it on Ubuntu, one method is to select the unicode (m17n)
keyboard (set up for use with the ibus input method) and just type
ctrl/u 0310.

I guess this should be asked at

And I guessyou are trying to mix characters from two different scripts
- Latin and Devanagari.

There is no such precomposed character, and one is not going to be 
added.  The way to encode this character is with U+004C (or U+006C) plus 
U+0310.


Also, if Ā, Unicode Character 'LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH MACRON' 
(U+0100) http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0100/index.htm 
on Linux Ubuntu is typed:


Shift-AltGr _ A

then please say what is required to type:

L̐, 004C LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L 0310 COMBINING CANDRABINDU
and
 l̐, 006C LATIN SMALL LETTER L 0310 COMBINING CANDRABINDU


An Ubuntu expert can give you the real answer for this, but my guess is 
that you will need a key for the candrabindu itself (U+0310) and that 
you would press L or l followed by that key.  If your keyboard does not 
have such a key, there seem to be lots of pages on the Web explaining 
how to customize your Ubuntu keyboard layout.
