ibus-libpinyin doesn't work for many apps on Ubuntu 22.04, hope that you @epico could test it in your spare time, this is a common problem maybe, and not just on my computer. "Thank You for Your Service".

Could you provide more information?

Chinese issue report is also okay here.

I tried with Ubuntu 22.04 desktop iso, it seems work.

Then I really don't know why, could it be because my system language is English?

[solrafa]

Same thing here:
I installed chinese language and can switch pressing Super + Space
In the shell, I can entry chinese characters
However, any other application accept the chinese characters

@epico @solrafa
Yes, It doesn't work if your system language is NOT Chinese. but this does not conform to the usage habits.

Maybe in English locale, the ibus is not enabled, but not sure about this.

I'm sure that's it.

Please report this issue to Ubuntu launchpad, thanks!

[solrafa]

Thanks!

Finally I've solved with this command:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-im-module 'ibus'
