I meant the visibility of my agenda regarding the indicated time-frame. In
my present situation, it is much simpler to use synchronous communication.

I use iBus because I require Anthy to input Japanese language.
I actually did before as indicated by you:
- disabled iBus (mouse click : quit)
- go to settings > region & language
- add an arabic layout (arabic) to the default one (english)
- make sure the layout looks right by clicking the keyboard icon
- this time i made sure to have a command to switch layout (CTRL+space is
already reserved by anthy)
- as soon as I click 'close', I can only type arabic, and cannot switch
back to english. the layout icon doesn't appear on the top-bar (never did),
and the only way to stop the suffering is to log out
note that with ibus i can input arabic, but the system seems unstable;
cannot switch smoothly between the languages and layouts. although with the
mouse it works 'sometimes'.

Anyways, please do not bother so much with this issue, although I would be
very much relieved if I can find a solution.

best regards,
K> Honsali
