SOGOU (搜狗) is a popular Chinese input software. For Ubuntu 14.04, they worked with the team of Ubuntu Kylin to create a linux version of their software.



It's based on FCITX input software, which is developed by the FCITX TEAM on launchpad.



I installed it on my laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 without any problem, and it works GREAT!



enter image description here



But, I have a netbook at home, with Lubuntu 14.04 installed on it. And I want to enjoy SOGOU on it as well.




  • I added the PPA of FCITX TEAM : deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/fcitx-team/dailybuild-fcitx-master/ubuntu trusty main

  • I then ran apt-get update && install fcitx

  • I downloaded the SOGOU software from http://pinyin.sogou.com/linux/, and installed it (OK)

  • Restart, I choose FCITX as my input method, start it from commandline $fcitx (as it doesn't start automatically).



I'm now using FCITX, BUT SOGOU doesn't work. When selected, it's like using the regular keyboard (no chinese character).



I read this : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fcitx_(简体中文)‎ and added this to .xprofile



 export GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx

 export QT_IM_MODULE=fcitx

 export XMODIFIERS="@im=fcitx"


But with no help. So do you have any idea on HOW to make SOGOU PINYIN (搜狗拼音) work on Lubuntu 14.04 (LXDE)?



On the left Ubuntu 14.04, on the right LUBUNTU 14.04 (fcitx app indicator)
enter image description hereenter image description here



If I run $fcitx-qimpanel then it seems to improve on LUBUNTU, but I still cannot choose the SOGOU entry from the menu :

When I select the SOGOU entry in the menu, NOTHING happen. It's when I click on the fcitx icon that the message appears in the terminal.

As advised by the FCITX team on Launchpad:




  • I removed the PPA (deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/fcitx-team/dailybuild-fcitx-master/ubuntu trusty main)

  • I uninstalled fcitx apt-get remove fcitx && apt-get autoremove && apt-get update

  • I restarted

  • I reinstalled sogou_pinyin from http://pinyin.sogou.com/linux/ dpkg -i sogou_pinyin_linux_1.0.0.0011_i386.deb with many dependencies errors in the terminal.

  • I ran apt-get install -f to solve the dependencies errors.

  • And in a terminal as a regular user fcitx and after fcitx-qimpanel



And BAM! It works. So I should not have added the PPA I guess!
