sergiusensstgraber, when I told yesterday that the '/' in channels wasn't working it actually was03:02
stgrabersergiusens: oh, good!03:03
sergiusensstgraber, just tell me later on what you want the default channel to be (and when this is landing) so I can make a change in the default03:04
stgrabersergiusens: yep, I'll try to do an end to end test tomorrow to make sure all works fine and if that's the case will figure out when I want to do the switch and send an e-mail to ubuntu-phone03:06
stgrabersergiusens: there'll be a transition period of a month or so anyway, so we can just flip the default during that time03:06
sergiusensah, great03:07

Mirvasac: so as answered by rsalveti, he or sergiusens was to port qtmultimedia-touch to 5.2 which is what blocks audio/video. additionally jhodapp promised to handle https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtvideo-node/+bug/1267818 but it's still waiting05:25

JamesTaitGood morning all; happy For Pete’s Sake Day! :-D09:21
Tassadarogra: I've noticed that with same rootfs, flo is running mir by default but hammerhead is not - is there some whitelist of devices which have mir enabled by default?09:26
ograhmm ?09:26
ogramany people use hammerhead with rootstock, works for them with the default rootfs09:26
TassadarI have system-image server which takes rootfs from system-image.ubuntu.com and it builds device parts for hammerhead, it's not using rootstock09:28
ograTassadar, the only extra thing rootstock does is: "touch /home/phablet/.display-mir"09:28
ogratry doing that manually after install09:28
Tassadarwhen I install flo from system-image, it has is using mir by default, whereas on hammerhead, I have to create .display-mir09:28
Tassadar*it is using mir...09:29
ograsince hammerhead is not in the supported arches ...09:29
ograi'll add it to the mir setup list once we can upload again (hopefully this week)09:29
paahi09:30
paahow can i install ubuntu touch on my arc s09:31
Tassadarogra: okay, thanks - so mir has some "whitelist"?09:31
ograTassadar, the function touching the file has, yes09:32
paaany help09:32
ogra!devices | paa09:33
ubot5paa: You can find the full list of devices, official images, community images, and works in progress at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices09:33
ograpaa, if it is not on that list, you can search xda-developer forums (they sometimes have additional images)09:33
ograif that doesnt help i fear you have to do the porting yourself09:33
paahow can i do de porting09:34
Tassadarogra: so it creates .display-mir by itself then, I guess I can put it in "custom" file for images on my server then - do you know if that works even for files in /home/phablet?09:35
ograno idea, try it i guess :)09:35
ograbut i'll add it to the list anyway, i'll ping you if that landed09:35
Tassadarwell, at least I'll try setting-up that custom file09:36
paapls how do i port my device09:37
ograpaa, see the channel topic, there is a link ... it is not a simple task though09:38
paaok ready to learn09:40
Tassadaryeah, custom tarballs work even for files in /home09:55
ograTassadar, and the file makes it work ?09:56
Tassadaryeah, it adds /home/phablet/.display-mier09:56
Tassadar*mir09:56
ograand that file makes the device work ?09:56
Tassadarit always worked with MIR09:57
ograwell, that wasnt clear from your question :)09:57
Tassadarthere are some graphic glitches with surfaceflinger, but everythings fine with mir09:58
nhainesogra: yes, I can confirm that on hammerhead there are some graphical glitches with surfaceflinger (when right-edge-swiping apps, but not the Dash for some reason) but they go away when using Mir.10:26
ograyes, thats known, on 4.4 SF wont work well with unity dur to changes on the android level10:27
ogra(the drivers use hwcomposer now)10:27
nhainesHmm, that makes sense I suppose.  :)10:27
ograand we dont really want to support SF anyway anymore10:28
ogra(things like broken screenshotting still leave it available ... once these are fixed i guess we'll drop it completely)10:28
nhainesogra: I was rather affirming that Mir runs perfectly on hammerhead.  :)10:30
ograyeah, thanks :)10:30
nhainesTassadar: also, thanks so much for your hard work.  I'm looking forward to MultiROM Manager supporting Ubuntu Touch updates on my Nexus 5!  It definitely got me through SCALE.  :)10:31
Tassadarhm, by the way - my system-image server is pretty crappy VPS, and while it has "unlimited" bandwidth, is is connected via 100Mbit line. Does anybody here have any idea about how many people will that handle until it becames unusably slow?10:34

wthielenhi all, trying to install saucy on my Galaxy Nexus using ubuntu-device-flash --channel saucy --bootstrap --device maguro12:58

=== alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch

ograwthielen, yes, the bootstrap option needs that13:10
wthielenok cool, its now showing the green android thingy with the rotating ... dodecahedron?13:11
wthielenor hexahedron, can't count the sides13:11
wthielenlast time i installed trusty, via many ways, and it black-screened on me... so im hoping saucy is more lucky13:12
wthielenok, it rebooted, showed the Google booting screen for quite a long time... and now its black..13:16
wthieleni doubt its working at all :(13:16
wthielenoh... i had to freaking tap it...13:19
ograthats most likely just a coincidence13:20
ogramaguro is simply just super slow13:20
ograespecially on first boot13:20
wthielenyea, it feels a bit sluggish13:20
ogratrusty is a bit better13:20
wthielenis there a way to "go back" without having to slide up from the bottom and hit back?13:21
ogra(not very much though ... and maguro will be unsupported within the next weeks anyway)13:21
wthielen:(13:21
wthieleni have a Nexus 5 but im running Kitkat on that one13:21
wthielenthis maguro is just my previous phone, and thought about giving Ubuntu Touch a shot there13:22
ograi think Tassadar just made dual boot for the nexus5 work with his MultiROM stuff13:23
ogramaguro is ok for testing apps you develop but imho not really usable as a daily device, the graphics driver support in Mir just sucks for it13:24
wthielen... dualboot! sounds good!13:24
Tassadaras of now, it can boot the first testing images, I'll hook it up to system-image once bug 1278589 is resolved13:25

ograthe N5 will give oyu an actual impression of Ubuntu on phones ... the ones that go on sale this year will have equal hardware13:27
ogramaguro just gives a bad impression if you ask me13:27
wthielenok i'll keep that in mind13:27
wthielenTassadar: is there any performance drop when using multirom?13:27
Tassadarno13:28
wthielenor does it just give you the choice which to use, and then its totally that ROM?13:28
wthielencool13:28
Tassadarare you familiar with XDA and custom ROMs?13:28
wthieleni have been using stock ROM all the time, but im familiar with flashing stuff13:28
wthieleni tried rooting etc, and flashed back to stock13:29
Tassadarshouldn't be too hard to use then. Anyway, feel free to ask me if you encounter any problem with it13:29
wthielenthanks!13:30
Tassadarby the way, when you install it, you won't be able to use stock ROM's OTA updates, but that's the case with nearly all modifications you can find on XDA13:30
wthieleni see13:30
wthielenso i'd have to re-add it into your MultiROM13:31
TassadarI usually release a ZIP file which can be used to update stock rom instead of OTA, it's the same thing but you have to download it and flash it13:31
wthielenusing images from google's site13:31
wthielenyea13:31
wthielendoes saucy support Japanese input by the way?13:31

thomiyeah19:50
thomited_: where does libUAL look for applications? can I modify $PATH and have it start an application in my home dir (for example)?19:51
ted_thomi, It executes based on path, but it needs a desktop file to know what to exec.19:51
ted_thomi, You can add one to ~/.local/share/applications/19:51
ted_thomi, The thing to make sure of is that it gets a new environment from Upstart, so you need to modify the PATH for Upstart, not the one in the current process.19:52
thomited_: if we create a desktop file, do we still need to modify PATH? My understanding is that the desktop file contains the full path to the executable?19:53
ted_thomi, Typically it doesn't, it refers to something in the path.  It could though.19:54
thomiok, I'll play around with it :)19:55

pmcgowannik90, fyi the alarm stuff is not as complete as I was fooled into believing23:03
pmcgowanworks nicely when phone is awake, but not yet setting a wakeup23:03
nik90pmcgowan: what do you mean?23:07
nik90pmcgowan: I actually woke up to ubuntu touch these past 2 days23:07
nik90it just started ringing in the morning even when the phone was locked23:07
rsalvetiwas it charging?23:07
nik90rsalveti: no23:08
rsalvetithen for some reason your cpu was still on23:08
pmcgowannik90, it seems to go into a lower power mode but not deep sleep23:09
pmcgowanso we still have some work to set the wakeup on /dev/alarm23:09
nik90pmcgowan: can we expect that by 14.04?23:09
pmcgowanoh yes23:09
pmcgowanthere is stuff in process, just has not landed and I was fooled into thinking it had23:10
nik90ah okay23:10
pmcgowanrsalveti, any ideas why we don't go into deep sleep?23:10
nik90well meanwhile I am coordinating with others on fixing the bugs we spotted like the timezone issue etc etc.23:10
rsalvetinot yet, we still need to investigate23:10
pmcgowanyeah its functional enough to find all those23:10
pmcgowanrsalveti, figured23:11

n-iCehello guys, is there a place to look what's still not working on a Nexus 4?23:15
nik90n-iCe: I think you can find it at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArLs7UPtu-hJdDZDNWliMmV1YUJ3Zk1pQlpDdGp4VFE&usp=sharing#gid=023:23
nik90n-iCe: I found that google document link at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices23:24
n-iCethanks23:25
n-iCeyou use ubuntu phone?23:25
pmcgowann-iCe, thats pretty out of date, I will bug the guys to update it23:26
n-iCepmcgowan: you own a n4?23:27
pmcgowann-iCe, yes but I work for canonical, so its a bit of a dev target for me23:27
pmcgowanbut it works every day23:27
pmcgowanseveral folks using as their primary phone23:27
* mhall119 is one of those folks23:27
mhall119so I just discovered that the messaging-app can send a message to multiple recipients, that's kind of cool23:28
pmcgowanyeah, that hit a couple weeks back23:29
mhall119pmcgowan: the videos popping up on the internet of the meizu mx3 running Ubuntu look so fast and smooth, makes me want to trade in my N423:29
n-iCepmcgowan: so you have a special dev ubuntu phone version?23:29
pmcgowann-iCe, no its a stick nexus 4, I just add test stuff there a lot23:30
pmcgowanstock23:30
pmcgowanrunning the latest every day23:30
n-iCeI see, are there apps already? like twitter, instagram, foursquare, etc?23:30
pmcgowanwebapp for twitter23:30
mhall119twitter, facebook, gmail and G+ are all there as webapps23:30
n-iCeinstagram? foursquare? vine?23:30
n-iCeno yet right?23:30
pmcgowanfriends app is there as well23:31
mhall119not yet23:31
n-iCethat's sad23:31
mhall119any online service that provides a nice mobile-web interface you can wrap in a browser window pretty easily23:31
n-iCedo you think it is running better than android? talking about performance/battery?23:31
mhall119n-iCe: well we don't even have a phone available to buy yet, those guys will come on board eventually23:31
n-iCemhall119: so it is a no?23:32
n-iCeI remember the first time ubuntu phone was available, long time ago, maybe a a year and a half?23:32
mhall119n-iCe: it's comparable, I never ran Android on the N4, and my last android phone was the Motorola DroidX, so it wouldn't be a fair comparison23:32
mhall119n-iCe: just about a year ago23:33
n-iCemhall119: yeah23:33
n-iCeI would love to try it, but without my apps, it is just useless23:33
n-iCefor me at least23:33
mhall119n-iCe: I can go all day on my N4 and still have 50% or more battery when I go to sleep23:33
mhall119n-iCe: more apps will come, especially when we have phones and users for them to target :)23:34
n-iCeI am reading there is no whatsapp app, which is the one I use the most, I really need that app, for work, school, friends, family.23:34
mhall119n-iCe: we have contacted them, but they were too involved in other things (selling themselves to FB and getting crazy rich it turns out) at the time23:35
n-iCe:(23:40
nhainesn-iCe: I bought the T-Mobile G1.  Preordered it about 20 minutes after the first Android press conference, actually.23:45
nhainesThere were no Android apps back then, either.23:45
n-iCeI know, the problem is whatsapp, I coul live with the other apps websites, but not with the message app23:47
n-iCecheck this out http://openwhatsapp.org/download/23:51

n-iCeoh :(23:52
nhainesn-iCe: my point isn't that you shouldn't depend on Whatsapp.  I'm sure it's fine.  But my point is that Android launched with maybe 30 apps.  Ubuntu 13.10 came out as a dev preview and 14.04 isn't out yet, plus there are no shipping phones.23:58
nhainesSo it's not time to panic about lack of apps yet.  :)23:58
