Keyboard layout error in Ubuntu 18.04

  • 772

I was installing Chinese pinyin input method on Ibus. But I found that the keyboard layout setting can not be used.

In addition, when I click that keyboard layout button, I got the following error

Then I tried to run gkbd-keyboard-display in terminal, but it returns error 

mycomputer~%: (gkbd-keyboard-display:15972): GnomeKbdIndicator-CRITICAL **: 15:56:59.390: Either layout or group have to be specified

After running command gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources, I got output

@a(ss) []

System: Ubuntu 18.04

Desktop: Gnome 3.28.4

Additional weird phenomina:

The user panel is corrupted. They are mis-placed, disfigured, and does not work enter image description here

By executing ls -la ~/.config/dconf, it returns

myusername@mypc:~$ ls -la ~/.config/dconf
