Continuing discussion from here: [image] ルリドラゴン・ Ruri Dragon dragon_face Week 3 Book Clubs Thanks for your help. I’m still having troubles. I ran sudo apt install fcitx5 and put your three lines into sudo nano /etc/profile.d/fcitx.sh. But I don’t seem to have the file /u…

I grabbed both Fcitx 5 and Fcitx 5 configuration there then installed mozc using apt because it didn’t pop up in PopShop. A new image of Pop!_OS finds mozc using apt without modification

@wanisnani What does apt search fcitx5 get you?

Probably the best thing you can maybe do is add the ubuntu repos to apt. This is done by first doing: add-apt-repository "deb http://apt.pop-os.org/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs)-updates main multiverse restricted universe" and then running apt update again. Afterwards doing apt search fcitx5 should ne…

If you have a bit of time, I can try installing popos into a vm and try to set fcitx5 up in there.

Unfortunately I have to leave in about 30 minutes. But I do have the time tomorrow. The biggest problem right now is that I need my QWERTY layout back because I cant work with the US one.

Just remove fcitx5 for the time being then. It’s probably the easiest solution

I removed the packages but it didnt help… Under Input Sources in the OS keyboard settings, it does show the correct one though.

You probably also need to log out and log back in, or alternatively kill the running fcitx5 process if there is one

[image] Gorbit99: installing popos into a vm and try to set fcitx5 up in there I did this yesterday, but onto a live usb. I got fcitx5 with mozc up and running. Only, I used the PopShop (package manager) to get fcitx5. I had to apt install fcitx5-mozc however. I did not have to add the ubunt…

Alrighty, I did a reboot and thank god, I have the correct layout again

This is what shows up in the Popshop when I search for fcitx5

edit: for some reason I do have the Mozc Settings application installed.
