Paratext 8 on Wasta-Linux font greyed out and can't be selected

Question

I am recovering from a massive computer failure on a team member’s computer. I have reinstalled Wasta-Linux 18 and am trying to get the Keyman keyboard to work in Paratext.

The correct font and keyboard are installed and any program on the computer can use the font and keyboard except for Paratext in this team member’s profile. Typing anything in Paratext here results in the cursor acting like it is moving and then returning to its original position. I have created a user profile for myself on the computer and Paratext is working the way it normally does on that profile.

Any ideas?
