| bodiccea | I just installed xubuntu 19.10 on a new laptop, japanese keyboard. I have ibus/mozc installed, but just cannot input any japanese. Any character I type is just roman. Any idea ? | 01:30 |
|---|---|---|
| kadiro | bodiccea> did you see this? http://www.localizingjapan.com/blog/2014/05/25/japanese-input-on-ubuntu-linux-14-04-lts-trusty-tahr/ | 01:34 |
| kadiro | it is for 14.04 but i think it can be done the same way in 19.10 | 01:34 |
| bodiccea | kadiro: Yes I did. Japanese is installed. I just cannot switch to mozc input (I tried anthy too). Likely something is missing. When I try to switch to mozc/anthy on input applet, it just shows the icon for 1/2 secs, then comes back to hiragana character, but still my input is "romaji" | 01:44 |
| kadiro | now i understand | 01:45 |
| kadiro | bodiccea> i'm trying just to help, i found this interesting link https://askubuntu.com/questions/561486/how-do-i-switch-input-modes-in-mozc-without-going-to-the-ibus-menu | 01:47 |

| bodiccea | thx kadiro, but I saw this post already. It is more about a shortcut to avoid the mozc/anthy menu. However, I think my issue is somewhere else, as the menu itself does not work. | 02:22 |
| kadiro | bodiccea> I'm sorry to not able to help you but did you try to ask in #ubuntu channel as it has a large support, I'm sure someone can help there | 02:23 |
| bodiccea | not yet, but sure, I usually go there :) | 02:37 |

| tbs | hello, my wifi doesnt work:) | 22:14 |
| xubuntu98w | How do I remove an uninstalled program from whisker menu? I uninstalled Cheese, since I found webcamoid which is better, but the shortcut in the menu did not go away. If clicked it errors saying it can't find the target. I tried going into menu libre to manually remove it, but upon opening am presented with an error saying that the entry for | 22:17 |
| xubuntu98w | cheese is not visible due to an error, which I have a screenshot of here. https://ibb.co/XYZKNTt So yeah if anyone knows how to remove it from the menu that would be awesome, and also in general how to clean up files from removed packages? | 22:17 |
| xubuntu98w | @tbs what kind of wifi adapter is in your computer? | 22:17 |
| tbs | i bought th | 22:18 |
| kadiro | xubuntu98w> try to purge it if not just remove its desktop file | 22:18 |
| tbs | i bought this new, hp laptop 15-db0048 | 22:19 |
| tomreyn | tbs: if this system has internet access by other means, please run and post the output of: lspci -knn | grep -EA3 '(Network|Ethernet) controller' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 22:20 |
| kadiro | tbs> if you type in the terminal: iwconfic , can you see your wifi device? | 22:20 |
| xubuntu98w | paste "lspci | grep -i wireless" into your terminal and post output | 22:21 |
| xubuntu98w | i had the same issue with my laptop, unfortunately my wifi adapter is not natively supported, but the good news was that there was a community created driver on github that works perfectly. | 22:22 |
| tbs | tomreynhttps://termbin.com/94w7 | 22:23 |
| tbs | tomreyn https://termbin.com/94w7 | 22:23 |
| tbs | kadiro is it maybe ifconfig? cuz it cant find ur command | 22:24 |
| tbs | xubuntu98w i pasted it and enter but nothing happened | 22:24 |
| kadiro | tbs> iwconfig is for wifi, but ifconfic can also show it | 22:25 |
| tbs | kadiro ahh u wrote iwconfic :) | 22:25 |
| tomreyn | RTL8723DE 802.11b/g/n PCIe Adapter [10ec:d723] | 22:26 |
| kadiro | oops my bad | 22:26 |
| tomreyn | tbs: which ubuntu version is this? lsb_release -ds | 22:26 |
| tbs | kadiroit also cant find ifconfic | 22:26 |
| tbs | tomreyn 19.10 latest i guess | 22:27 |
| kadiro | it is midnight hear i do mistakes :D | 22:27 |
| tbs | tomreyn xubuntu | 22:27 |
| tbs | what can i do with this? RTL8723DE 802.11b/g/n PCIe Adapter [10ec:d723] | 22:28 |
| xubuntu98w | @kadiro i looked in /usr/share/applications but there is no desktop file for cheese, as it was removed. apt-get purge cheese didnt work either because its already gone. i dont get how it's still showing up in the menu though. | 22:29 |
| kadiro | xubuntu98w> can you see it in ~/.local/share/applications/ | 22:29 |
| tomreyn | tbs: this is your wireless chipset. you can search the web for it combined with your ubuntu version or kernel version (cat /proc/version) to look for instruction son how to get it working | 22:29 |
| tbs | xubuntu98wthere s cache things files too | 22:29 |
| tbs | ctrl h at ur home folder i guess and try to find folders about that app which s hidden xubuntu98w | 22:30 |
| tomreyn | tbs: you'll either be missing newer firmwares or may need to use a PPA (or git repository) providing drivers for this device. | 22:30 |
| tomreyn | tbs: looks like git http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2019/04/nstall-rtl8723de-wifi-driver-ubuntu-19-04/ | 22:32 |
| xubuntu98w | @kadiro wow its the only thing in that folder, good snipe https://ibb.co/H29YxHw so just delete it and that should fix it? | 22:33 |
| kadiro | xubuntu98w> it should yes | 22:34 |
| tomreyn | tbs: make sure your system is fully updated before you do this: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove | 22:34 |
| xubuntu98w | @kadiro it worked, awesome, thankyou. i wonder why programs do that sometimes, not uninstall cleanly.. | 22:36 |
| kadiro | xubuntu98w> you're welcome, yeah it is sometimes weird | 22:36 |
