How to use Korean (hangul) and a virtual keyboard / onboard?

Solution 1:

I just managed to get it! (I've actually yelled "eureka"!) This is for Linux Mind Ullya and I am about to do the same for my Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

This is how I did:

First Part - Install IBus:

Step 1: Install and set up IBus Open the terminal and run the below command

sudo apt install ibus-m17n

Step 2: Get the language right On the terminal run the command below hor the Hangul option

sudo apt-get install -y ibus-hangul

Then you need to set it up under language e region settings, choose Korean (Hangul).

Second Part - Configure Onboard:

For that you will need a skin for your virtual keyboard to display Hangul characters. I found one here:

Download the tar.gz file and add it to the layout options on Onboard.

If you need further assistance, let me know.
