>Hello list
Hi , Mark.
You may create ja_JP.UTF-8 locale using dpgk-reconfigure locale if you have not created it.
Yup, forgot to mention, but I had done that.
And,
-right click the ibus icon on the task bar
-select "Preferences" on the menu
-"iBus Preferences" window shows up , and click "Input Method" tab.
- then , input methods list appears .
and if you can not see "Japanese-Anthy" on that list,
press "Add" button ,
select "japanese" ,
and then select "Anthy" ,
then Japanese-Anthy should be added on the Input Method list.
OK this has the ring of truth to it -- thanks! I can't check right now as the computer is in my son's room and he's sleeping, but I will try it in the morning and report back. >From memory, I don't think Anthy was there to be selected, which may mean I've failed to install something I need, but I will check again before saying that with any confidence. Thanks a lot for your help!
Mark
