Not much to elaborate on my side: how can I enable japanese input on ubuntu mate 18.04? I tried adding japanese language support and restarting. But I still don't see any viable keyboard layout to add.
I'd like to set up a PC with monitoring in the office. It should display some dashboard in a browser and a person should not be able to interact with it unless he or she for example knows the password. Perhaps it could just work as a sort of password protected screensaver displaying a predefined browser page. How can I achieve such result?
I'm not good with networking and maybe I'm using a wrong wording but I cannot find an answer. I'm using Ubuntu Desktop and I'd like to receive my ssh traffic via one of my connections and all ther rest of my traffic via some other connection. How can I achieve this?
I've got a network printer available through samba and I'd like to use it from my Ubuntu 14.04. Unfortunately simply adding it through Printers is not enough. If I try to use it it says: Connection failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL and then Unable to connect to CIFS host, will retry in 60 seconds...
How can I debug these things and learn the reason it doesn't work?

I use VPN (openvpn) on Ubuntu 13.04. I see the IP-s through VPN correctly. The problem is, although I configure the nameserver in the network manager I still doesn't see the domains.
The exported VPN configuration says:
comp-lzo yes
dev tun
proto udp
nobind
auth-nocache
script-security 2
persist-key
persist-tun
user openvpn
group openvpn
/etc/resolv.conf says it will be rewritten, so I don't edit it
/etc/network/interfaces contains only:
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
I tried editing:
/etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf
by adding:
interface "eth0" {
prepend domain-name-servers MY.DNS.IP.ADDRESS;
}
But it doesn't work.
How can I solve it?
I just tried to add an user to a group

What does this mean, what went wrong and how to eliminate the error?
I want to add greek polytonic keyboard layout under Lubuntu (so in LXDE). I already realized there is no easy tool to do it with the graphic interface, so I need to use setxkbmap executing something the like of:
setxkbmap pl,gr
Now, how to make setxkbmap set the greek polytonic variant?
I have an Asus EEE PC 1225B with fresh Lubuntu 12.04. And no sound. It doesn't seem to be some common problem, so I have to make some research what's up. I tried running alsamixer, so I know I have Realtek ALC269VB with nothing muted unexpectedly. What can I do next to identify and solve the problem?
Additional info:
alsamixer shows two cards: HD-Audio Generic and HDA ATI-SB (Realtek ALC269VB); the first one is muted.

The Polish part can be translated as "error opening audio: There is no such file or directory".
