This is my quick note on adding Google Pinyin in[ut method on my Ubuntu.
- Login as root.
- Add Chinese locales:
- # dplg-reconfigure locales
- Install the required packages:
- # apt install fcitx fcitx-pinyin fcitx-googlepinyin
- Run 'im-config' and change it to 'fcitx'.
- Reboot
- Run 'fcitx-configtool'
- Click "+" to add new input method
- Uncheck "Only Show Current Language"
- Search for "google" to add Google Pinyin
- In "Global Config" tab, select the shortcut keys for switching input methods with Google Pinyin.
