[snurglez]

Hey I am trying to get Japanese keyboard working on my laptop, and all the keyboard on gnome don’t work, so I am trying to get Japanese Anthy working but it doesn’t exist. How do I download Japanese Anthy Keyboard. I am running Gnome version 44.5

For what it’s worth, I use Mozc on GNOME and haven’t had issues.

Whoops meant to reply to OP

Great!

For the record, what did you eventually do?

[snurglez]

I installed the Japanese Anthy Package

sudo pacman -Sy ibus-anthy

then I rebooted my system, went to the keyboard settings and it was there, with the gear Icon

I’ve been using fcitx-mozc for many years and it’s been great apart from not working on the steam linux app, but works in every game. I used to use ibus-anthy and switched forgot why, but you can always look into it and compare them.
