I have lenovo z50 and recently installed 16.04LTS. I have installed ibus-m17n package for text inputs.
problem 1) "Indian" keyboard layout, part of std XKB package is for inputing hindi text under "settings -> text entry". However, unity dash doesnt take input from it. it simply remains blank. although it takes input from "hi-inscript", part of m17n pkg.
problem 2) situation is somewhat reversed in sublime text 3 latest build. It takes input from "Indian" but writes roman characters when "hi-inscript" is selected.
My default input system is "IBus" as selected in language preferences.
What could be possible solution to fix this?
UPDATE I checked for bangla, arabic input layout and problem is same. Dash window doesnt register a single input.
