xenos1984_hi everyone, i'm trying to figure out how exactly the gps works on a nexus 7, i.e., how the gps data gets from the gps device to the application06:48
xenos1984_so far i understood that the application level interface is provided by QtLocation, but i'm interested in the low level interface06:49
xenos1984_is there some serial device aka /dev/tty* or the like which provides NMEA data? or some other interface / driver?06:50
xenos1984_any hint to hardware docs or some driver code where i could look this up myself would also be highly appreciated06:51

pittistgraber: I was wondering how to launch an upstart user session in a schroot, to make "ubuntu-app-launch" work in a schroot; do you happen to know how?15:40
doflahertythere were references in some of the landing team e-mails to MMS support - has that landed yet or is it still in progress?15:53
dobeypitti: i managed to get 90% of the way to having that work yesterday. it was stressful :(15:55
dobeypitti: and in the end I still got blocked by apport issues (doing it inside an lxc)15:56
dobeyerr, not apport, apparmor15:56
dobeydoflaherty: i think receiving works mostly, but sending isn't quite there yet, iirc15:56
doflahertydobey, is there a way to test that aside from asking my friends to send me pictures?  t-mo lets me send text messages via e-mail, but attaching images doesn't seem to work16:09
dobeydoflaherty: no idea16:10
Aizenogra_, you there? I finally got the init process working :). But now I'm getting "initrd: Couldn't find a system partition" error. Where should I place the android system.img ?17:03
AizenAnyone ?17:08

stgraberpitti: init --user?17:44

stgraberpitti: you'll then need to set UPSTART_SESSION to the right value (you can find it in /run/user/<uid>/usptart/sessions if XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is set17:45
stgraberpitti: after that, initctl should work as expected and target that user session17:45
DirkTHi, does any of you know if desktop convergence is supported on the Nexus 7? I haven't found any statement using Google.20:34
* DirkT is patiently walking away yet still waiting for an answer20:44
popeyDirkT: no20:48
DirkTpopey: thanks for the info. I'd like get a device that supports desktop convergence. What should I get at this stage to be as officially supported as currently possible?20:53
popeyDirkT: we're some way off from full desktop convergence, I wouldn't like to recommend a device yet.20:58
DirkTWell, then let me ask differently: has a Nexus 7 decent hardware enough to run one day desktop convergence? ;)21:00
popeyCouldn't tell you.21:02
popeyWe're not there yet.21:02
popeyI wouldn't want to say yes, and you come back to me in 18 months and complain ☻21:03
wilee-nileeDirkT, Don't hold your breath I have a nexus 721:05
DirkTOk, no problem. One of my clients is an investment company that is connected to an Asian noname Android device manufacturer. I would like to build sometng to convince them that Ubuntu is the sugar in the cake that they have been lacking so far. ;) So, desktop convergence aside, what works currently works with Nexus 7 pretty well, yeah? It's not lacking anything hardware wise that would spoil the show?21:05
DirkTNexus 7 is close hw-wise to that other product, hence my interest.21:06
popeythe devices we currently support are Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 1021:07
DirkTYes, but screen size aside is any one of them able to do things the others can't?21:08
DirkT(as far as Ubuntu is concerned)21:08
popeySure, the Nexus 4 can make phone calls ㋛21:09
wilee-nileeDirkT, the touch is not a ubuntu desktop environment, you might look closer at it's functionality.21:10
wilee-nileenot yet anyway, ;)21:10
DirkTwilee-nilee: I know. Until convergence is there. :-P21:11
DirkTOk, so currently Nexus 4 has the most features. Thanks. :-)21:13
DirkTThanks to the team here for making Ubuntu Touch's awesome. :-)21:14
wilee-nileeDirkT, again don't hold your breathm canonical has the doors open for providers to bite the worm, seems there is something coming up for the touch is all.21:21
wilee-nileeI would pay big bucks for the docking phone to the desktop, just waiting for it to happen ;)21:22
DirkT:-) It'll be a killer.21:22
