    The Universe repository should already be enabled (wiki.ubuntu.com/AlwaysEnableUniverseMultiverse). If not, first enable the Universe repository.

    As root/superuser, run:

    apt-get install ttf-sinhala-lklug ibus im-switch ibus-m17n m17n-db m17n-contrib
    language-pack-si-base
    From your user account (i.e. not root) run:

    rm -f ~/.xinput.d/* ; im-switch -z all_ALL -s ibus
    Logout and login again. Environment variables need to be set/updated (NO NEED TO REBOOT)

    From your user account (i.e. not root) select your keyboard layouts by running:

    ibus-setup


    OR
