cpatrick08I was looking at http://system-image.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed/ and was wondering what the generic images would run on02:53
cpatrick08I was also looking on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09/daily-preinstalled/pending/ and saw grouper images, I was wondering how up to date those images were03:00
Bond-JamesBondhello folks03:32
Bond-JamesBondi finally have a Ubuntu Touch device and I'm thrilled -- but..03:33
Bond-JamesBondI cannot figure out how to upload an e-pub or a couple mp3 podcasts to my device.  Help, please?03:34
Bond-JamesBondOh: running PCLinuxOS, but can boot into Ubunu 14.04 if needed03:35
Bond-JamesBondI prefer to work in just GUI, but I'm OK doing a few things command line if that is what it takees03:37
Bond-JamesBondum, hello03:40
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, mp3s you should be able to copy via MTP to your device and put in the 'Music' folder03:41
Bond-JamesBondthank you, but I don't understand MTP03:43
Bond-JamesBonddoes the browser have a way to "dowload this link"? Because I could try that, too.03:43
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, "Media Transfer Protocol (MTP)" .. if you plug your device in via USB it should appear under nautilus (note i use Ubuntu not PCLinuxOS) and then you can copy them across03:44
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, yep if you download music files they will be imported via the music-app03:44
Bond-JamesBondI was able to get DigiKam to find/dowload the pics, but I just couldn't put anything ONTO the device.03:46
Bond-JamesBondMaybe rebooting into Ubuntu is the way to go?03:46
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, maybe, i'm not familiar with the tools that come with PCLinuxOS03:47
Bond-JamesBondthanks ahayzen03:49
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, if that doesn't work you can push them across with adb03:49
Bond-JamesBondbut -theoretically- it really should be as easy as dragging & dropping some files across, right?03:49
ahayzen_Bond-JamesBond, yeah it should appear as a drive in your file manager then drag and drop :)03:50
Bond-JamesBondthank you so much , folks!  I'm going to reboot and try some more.  Take Care!03:55
nhainesGood luck!03:56

jgdxseb128, hey14:17
barrymandel, lool: do you have an eta for a new udm in rtm that fixes LP:# 1341685?  i'm going to try to get a new s-i into rtm today14:22
loolbarry: hmm I had asked mandel to land it, and I believe that was utopic/vivid only back then, need to check with him14:22
loolmandel: you around?14:22
barrylool: cool, thanks.  btw, i'm going to do a final review and test of the branch, but it *should* be up-to-date with our discussions of last week14:26
dobeybarry, lool: mandel is on vacation for a few days i think14:47
barrydobey: okay, thanks14:47
seb128jgdx, hey15:05
jgdxseb128, hey, I had a question about what code goes where for a bug, but now I know.15:07
seb128k15:08
ogra_seb128, seems since we rolled back apt in the rtm images system-settings seem to fail their smoketests15:10
seb128ogra_, doesn't make any sense, settings are not using apt15:10
ogra_(that was the only change during the last few images and it started exactly with the rolled back image ... pretty weird)15:10
ogra_well, pkcon is15:11
ogra_but even that should not have any effect15:11

dobeyhrmm18:54
dobeyis there any way to remount /system as rw?18:54
davmor2dobey: phablet-config writable-image?18:56
dobeydavmor2: i don't think that makes the android lxc environment writable though?18:57
pmcgowandobey, adb shell "echo $mypassword | sudo -S mount -o remount,rw /"18:57
pmcgowanmore better18:57
dobeypmcgowan: mount: cannot remount /dev/loop1 read-write, is write-protected18:57
dobeyi want to make the android chroot writable, not / :)18:57
davmor2dobey: I thought it made / rw and everything under it18:58
davmor2ah okay sorry18:58
ogra_not the android img ... you would have to do that from recovery18:58
dobeydavmor2: pretty sure not android anyway18:58
dobeyogra_: so boot to recovery, remount /, and then adb push?18:58
ogra_the prob is that the img already lives in a readonly space ...18:58
ogra_so it inherits the readonly status ... even if you remount the loop image18:59
dobeynot that i expect what i want to try, to actually fix anything, but would like to try it anyway18:59
ogra_dobey, no, boot into recovery, find the andorid image somethere under /data or /userdata, create a mountpoint for it, loop mount it rw and make changes19:00
ogra_(at which point you will likely run into issues because it has 0bytes free19:00
dobeythough maybe the image already has the latest versions of the firmware on it; the filenames aren't versioned, so no idea how to tell19:00
ogra_)19:00
dobeyhmmm19:01
ogra_you can look at the source of rootstock-touch-install from lp:project-rootstock-ng ...19:01
ogra_it does something similar19:01
