Hi Ming,

I followed your tips:

In the Preferences menu -> ibus preferences -> Input method -> Add, then 
I selected Chinese and Pinyin.

And to insert ideograms I just activate Chinese - Pinyin in systray 
(bottom right of desktop)

Then I saw your tip for replacing ibus-pinyin by ibus-libpinyin.

I was in doubt if I should remove the ibus-pinyin first so as not to 
conflict, but I found at

https://askubuntu.com/questions/502811/why-my-ibus-input-cant-type-que-or-qve-in-chinese

the tip for just install

apt-get install ibus-libpinyin

and change the input method but not removing any packages.

Thank you, 谢谢
