I'm a language nerd. I need to be able to type lots of different languages,
because sometimes discussion of words come up in conversation.
The default input method (ibus?) doesn't work at all. I add input methods in
Region & Language > Input Sources, and I press Super+Space to switch them as
indicated, and the keyboard still writes Latin characters instead of
Cyrillic.
Fcitx has more input methods and works for me when I type Japanese with
fcitx-mozc, but no other languages (like Russian, Hebrew or Greek) will work.
The input method will be switched, but the keyboard will not type different
characters.
Things I want to be able to type:
- Japanese
- Chinese
- Korean
- Arabic
- Hebrew
- Cyrillic
This worked on Slackware.
