Install fcitx on Ubuntu 13.10 to replace ibus

Upgraded Ubuntu 13.10. The ibus character select window is incomplete and it is unusable. And I could not find a solution for it so far. It forced me to look at fcitx.

1. Uninstall ibus and all its input methods:

   sudo aptitude purge ibus ibus-gtk ibus-qt4 ibus-sunpinyin ibus-table ibus-table-wubi ibus-libpinyin ibus-sunpinyin libibus-1.0-5 python-ibus ibus-pinyin

2. Install fcitx:

   sudo aptitude install fcitx fcitx-libpinyin

   fcitx-libpinyin is better then fcitx-sunpinyin or fcitx-pinyin IMO
3. Start fcitx:

   fcitx -rd

4. You may need to restart your desktop manager, e.g. lightdm, in a console login as root:

   sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart

   or simply restart your computer
