How can I run a non-interactive ibus-setup or fix this misconfiguration in ubuntu 16.04?

  • 772

Based on this answer I learned that somehow Ubuntu 16.04, after upgrading from 15.10, made accents stop working in all my applications, and that by running ibus-setup and accepting the dialogs would make the accents work again.

However I must run that command everytime I turn on my computer.

How can I (one of these two)...

  • Fix this so it works as it worked in 15.10, with no workaround?
  • Execute this command silently on my .bashrc? By silently I want to remark that the command should not expect input from user, but turn on ibus immediately for the keys to work.

  1. ibus-setup does not change any setting but it will ask you to start ibus daemon if not already running.

    So check:

    • System settings → Language support → input method: should be ibus

    With that is set correctly, the system starts dbus daemon at boot without any user interaction.
