Keyboard Not Work in Chromium [Not an ibus issue]

[sithlord48]

your welcome.

make a script for it and set up to autorun on log in using System Settings -> startup / shutdown ->autostart . use the add script button

the script would be a simple text file that contains

#/bin/bash
killall ibus-daemon

then save it. not sure if it needs to be executable or not for autostarting a script. if it fails make it executables (rt.click properties in dolphin or chmod +x)

thanks sithlord48 ..!!!!

How can this the mandate to do when opening the computer to automatically run

Excellent.

Thanks blackpaw! That enabled me to use my keyboard in Chromium.

Don't reboot - ibus will restart each time.

- Close Chrome
- killall ibus-daemon
- Start Chrome

You'll have to do this each time you logon. Its only a workaround till the kubuntu devs create a permanent fix.

Thanks for trying blackpaw, but after pasting "killall ibus-daemon" from your post into Terminal and then rebooting my keyboard still does not work in Chromium.

Any other suggestions?

killall ibus won't do it.

killall ibus-daemon

No need for sudo/

Hi,

I have an older AMD 64 computer with a keyboard (not USB) that works fine with Kubuntu 14.04 except in Chromium.

I read previous postings re this issue and followed their instructions for removing the ibus. (In Terminal: sudo killall ibus.) I then rebooted but still have the same problem of the keyboard not working in Chromium. In Terminal I again ran "sudo killall ibus" and got a message stating "ibus: no process found."

I have no idea how to proceed from here. Any help would be appreciated.
