Reading and Writing Kannada on Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.04)
$ sudo apt-get scim scim-m17n scim-gtk2-immodule ttf-kannada-fonts
$ scim-setup &
and assign ctrl+alt+space as the trigger for switching keyboard layouts.
Create 75scim file under /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ with following lines
(if you have 90im-switch, better to remove it for this setup)
export XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
export XIM_PROGRAM="/usr/bin/scim -d"
export GTK_IM_MODULE=scim
export QT_IM_MODULE=scim
logout and login
Pressing ctl+alt+space should bring up the scim toolbar on the right hand bottom corner of the screen. If not, launch scim & from the shell.
I use the kn-itrans keyboard layout.
Notes
- I did not have to delete the
Malige.ttffonts as described on this page. - Firefox renders kannada text properly without the need to adjust any pango settings, which seemed to be an issue in earlier Ubuntu distribution.
