[tlug] iBus Setup Problem

[CL <az.4tlug@example.com>]

I have stripped my HDD and reinstalled Kubuntu 11.04 directly from a CD 
after saving an image of my previous version on another disk.

Now, iBus does not work.  I have to manually start Keyboard Input 
Methods every time I start / reboot and Anthy capability is hit and miss 
(mostly miss).  Most of the time, the iBus icon is visible, but not the 
Anthy E-J icon.  I thought it was best to configure from scratch rather 
than copying over the old files. I was fairly sure that I reconfigured 
the switcher correctly but am less confident now.  Can anyone offer any 
troubleshooting tips?

The reason I did a reinstall was that I killed the kernel on the 
previous installation by attempting to install a Linmodem (let's 
stipulate that the writer is not yet a programmer and end that part of 
the thread).  I have a client which does not have / want Internet 
connectivity (they are amakudari) and do not want to discuss this 
option.  I threw money at that problem and now have the fax capability 
they demand.  Now, I need my J-go capability back so I can do the actual 
reports and send them.
