<p><a href="http://www.localizingjapan.com/blog/2012/05/29/japanese-input-on-ubuntu-linux-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin/">iBus</a> - <span class="italic">(GNU/Linux)</span> - If you use (K/X/L)Ubuntu, <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JapaneseInput">you probably already have it</a>. You just need to install the Japanese IME packages using the language support in the settings and select iBus as your keyboard input method system. You can select the keys to press to change the keyboard layout or do it manually using the icon on the panel. For the rest of us that dont use Ubuntu or its variants, you can probably find iBus in the official repositories of your distribution. You can make iBus autostart when you boot by adding ibus-daemon to your ~/.xinitrc. And you will probably want to add & to the end, ala: ibus-daemon & (also your windows manager might have its own autostart file, use that instead) that you can find in your Home folder.</p>
<ul>
<li>If IBus doesnt show up under “Keyboard input method system”, it may not have been installed automatically for some reason when you installed Japanese language support. Try opening a terminal and manually installing either ibus-mozc or ibus-anthy, and IBus should then appear as an option.</li>
<li>Dont forget to configure Qt for input in Qt apps. See <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IBus#Initial_setup">this</a> and <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ibus#Plasma_5">this</a>.</li>
