    There is no such precomposed character, and one is not going to be
    added. The way to encode this character is with U+004C (or U+006C) plus
    U+0310.

    An Ubuntu expert can give you the real answer for this, but my guess is
    that you will need a key for the candrabindu itself (U+0310) and that
    you would press L or l followed by that key. If your keyboard does not
    have such a key, there seem to be lots of pages on the Web explaining
    how to customize your Ubuntu keyboard layout.
