I did try installing ibus and the booster packages for tamil. But, I
couldn't find the Tamil keyboard layout even then. All I >did notice as the
keyboard layouts were
1. Tamil2. Tamil keyboard with numerals3. Tamil (Srilanka, TAB
typewriter)4. Tamil (Srilanka, UNICODE)5. Tamil (Tab >typewriter)6. Tamil
(TSCII typewriter)7. Tamil (UNICODE)
But, none of them seem to support phonetic typing.
Am I missing out somewhere ?
Change the keyboard Input method to ibus. Or start ibus-daemon directly
using Alt+F2. Then right click on i bus icon in notification area, go to
preference you will find few of languages expand drop-down list. Then
choose tamil phonetic.
Then add it. While clicking in text box press Ctrl+space to enable the
chosen phonetic. Now it should work.
note: ibus-m17n will enable Tamil support.
Have a great day!
