But under Region & Languages | Input Sources, I have installed both "Japanese" and "Japanese (Mozc)". I use "Japanese" because to type English on a Japanese keyboard -- for some time, I had chosen "English (UK|US|...)" and my keys were in the wrong place. Then I thought maybe it was referring to my keyboard layout and not the language I wanted to type in. So I removed that and chose Japanese and it's fine now. So, I'm not sure if that's what you're facing, but you might want to see if there is another "Japanese" to add in. Perhaps the one you picked is the one I now use to type English. If I switch to "Japanese (Mozc)", I can type Japanese. I have an option to select "Manage Installed Languages" and when you enter it, it will ensure that you have dependencies loaded. The Keyboard input method system is "ibus" for me. I know I was vague in where all these options are, but I guessed that xubuntu is different from ubuntu anyway. But if you want more specific "click A, go to window B" type instructions, I can do that for you. Ray PS: Remember to logout and log back in. I went even further and restarted the computer. Didn't want to take any chances. :-)
