Knuckl3headHello?00:08
Knuckl3headAnybody?00:10
* Dragonkeeper is guarding this room, noone is home, except the dragons in the far corner, its time to turn back.00:12
Knuckl3headDragonkeeper, do you know much about Ubuntu touch?00:13
* Dragonkeeper knows of ubuntu touch. He recalls it being mentioned here some time ago.00:14
* Dragonkeeper looks at the Knuckl3head00:15
Knuckl3headI've got a device I would like to try and get it working on, assuming that I had that I had the full root filesystem of android, where would I find it's hardware drivers?00:15
Dragonkeeperyou mean proprietary drivers? Knuckl3head00:17
Knuckl3headMostly, yeah.00:17
* Dragonkeeper points to /vendor dir within android00:17
Knuckl3headSo the /vendor/lib, /vendor/modules, and /vendor/pittpatt could be somehow imported to ubuntu touch?00:23
Dragonkeeperthink there is a script in the repos in the ubuntu enviroment for porting that can pull the needed drivers from a device running android . they are used in the ''android'' part of system but its a minimal version in container that no really called android anymore .. then ubuntu goes on top00:26
DragonkeeperKnuckl3head: ^00:26
Knuckl3headI didn't know that, but that would make this process a billion and a half times easier.00:26
Dragonkeeperfollowing the port guide on ubuntu site?00:27
Knuckl3headI'll go there then. Thanks for the help, Dragonkeeper.00:28

elisam98Hey everyone! I'm excited to get started porting Touch to the LG Volt (LS740) from Boost Mobile. I have my device tree vendor lobs and kernel sources all in place, but I seem to be getting a compile error:03:05
elisam98"fatal error: linux/msm_mdp.h: No such file or directory"03:06
elisam98I have an "include" folder in my device tree and in my kernel sources. They both contain the linux folder which includes the msm_mdp.h file.03:07
elisam98..But it's not getting included by the compiler. Any ideas where to start?03:07

Angel2006hi all10:29
brunch875hello!10:29
Angel2006anyone could help me installing ubuntu touch in dual boot on my nexus 4?10:29
* brunch875 has no idea on how to do that10:30
Angel2006and someone else?10:30
Angel2006;D10:31
Angel2006:D10:31
brunch875you can follow this though10:33
brunch875https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/DualBootInstallation10:33
brunch875It looks pretty complete10:33
Se7morning#10:34
brunch875g'morning!10:34
SilexI, there's this but I'd like to report but I'm not sure to find its correct category: On Aquaris 4.5 BQ phones, when I mute the sound in the PathWind game (or any game), then then no sound goes out anymore in the browser app in Youtube for example11:12
Silexthere's this bug*11:13
Silexeven if I move the volume up or down11:13
Se7Silex, here i think there is some bug https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Avengers11:18
SilexSe7: yes, but as I said no category really fits11:19
brunch875it's a known bug though11:19
Silexbrunch875: okay, then no need to report. Thanks11:19
Silexis enabling writable image and using apt on the device "ok"?11:20
brunch875advice: don't apt-get upgrade11:20
brunch875it'll break everything11:20
Silexah, good to know11:20
SilexI was thinking about giving https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup a try11:21
brunch875also, I discourage you to enable writable11:21
brunch875it's preferred if you install stuff in home if you can11:21
Silexbrunch875: thanks for the advices... how do you handle unmet dependencies?11:22
brunch875I have no idea :D11:22
SilexI see python is installed so yowsup should theorically work with a local install11:22
brunch875installing more stuff in home? hahaha11:22
Silexmaybe I can tell dpkg to install stuffs locally, or just cross compile on the host and copy there11:23
brunch875you  can use dpkg -x to extract stuff from the debs11:23
brunch875and apt-get download to get the debs11:24
Silexright11:24
brunch875you can also use a chroot jail to toy around with apt-get without needing to enable write11:24
SilexMaybe I could also write some little apps11:24
Silexso installs/updates go through the system installer11:25
brunch875if you're comfortable with flashing, go ahead and toy around11:25
brunch875you can always just re-flash ubuntu11:25
SilexI'm a c++/ruby dev, but I'm inexperienced with phone dev. The ubuntu SDK looked fairly straight forward tho11:26
brunch875ever played with android?11:26
brunch875flashing is done the same way11:26
brunch875with adb11:26
Silexokay11:26
brunch875and fastboot11:26
Silextheorically I won't need to flash around if I manage to wrap yowsup and provide whatsapp support that way11:27
Silexbut I guess I'll try local installs first11:27
Silexand if it works wrap it into some tiny app11:27
Silexwe'll see how it goes, thanks for the infos11:27
brunch875make sure to tell me if you're succesful11:27
brunch875I want to try it out11:27
* brunch875 's battery is about to die and there's no power nearby!11:28
Silexit's a shame apt-get install doesn't work out of the box11:28
brunch875it "does"11:28
brunch875enabling write is easy :)11:28
brunch875it's just for security reasons11:29
Silexyeah but I never heard anyone recommand it11:29
brunch875that's because of the click packages11:29
brunch875they solve the dependency nightmare inherited from debian11:29
Silexhum, you mean there's two packages manager in ubuntu touch?11:30
brunch875let's hope the ubuntu devs gradually migrate from apt-get11:30
brunch875yeah, and the desktop will use the click packages too11:30
brunch875I've heard something about snappy packages which seem to be about the same thing11:30
brunch875basically they're packaging all dependencies of the application with the application11:30
embiksnappy packages are for Ubuntu Core, the cloud/server "version" of Ubuntu11:30
brunch875and sandboxing it11:30
embikit's not the same as click packages afaik (but I might be wrong)11:31
brunch875click packages are the future11:31
Silexcreating two new package manager sounds a bit dangerous imho11:31
brunch875this doesn't mean they're going to get rid of apt-get though11:31
Silexso much legacy code depends on debian packages11:32
embikclick packages are the future for me when I'm able to package up go applications with it11:32
Angel2006hi all ,, anyone know how could i boot ubuntu on my nexus 4?11:56
Angel2006i've tried to install it in dual boot with multirom (ubuntu touch 14.09) .. but once i restar the phone, the ubuntu logo appears but i leave it 30 mins and turn continously  and so doesn't boot.. (after 30 min i've shut down my phone) .. any suggestion?11:59

OscarBookwormInstalled Ubuntu Touch on Nexus 10, all is fine but no sound (music app), any ideas?12:51
ahayzenOscarBookworm, is there a sound-indicator in the notification bar?12:52
OscarBookwormof course it is12:52
ahayzensometimes that doesn't start for me ;) ... is it just music or all apps?12:53
OscarBookwormyoutube video is working fine with sound but music app sucks12:53
ahayzen:/ define 'sucks' as in no audio at all or stutters?12:54
OscarBookwormthere is no progress if i press play12:54
ahayzenugh ... do you know what format the file are?12:55
OscarBookwormI tried both ogg and mp312:55
ahayzenok they should work... would you be able to pastebin some logs for me? ... /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/media-hub.log and /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/application-click-com.ubuntu.music_music_2.0.846.log ?12:56
OscarBookwormHow to show hidden files on device?13:00
ahayzenOscarBookworm, how are you trying to get to the files? file manager or terminal? ... i usually just adb pull them over to the desktop13:02
OscarBookwormI#ll try it with adb, just a moment please13:04
Se7it s possible to install android lollipop in dual boot on aquarius ubuntu editions?13:07
brunch875it should be13:09
brunch875technically it's the same es the android edition13:09
brunch875https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/DualBootInstallation13:10
Se7tnx :)13:10
ogra_there is no officially supported way of dual booting ...13:10
ogra_the ubuntu edition is partitioned differently ... and the drivers use fimware from android 4.4 for the hardware, if anything in lollipop brings a newer one it might break HW functionality under ubuntu13:11
brunch875snap13:11
Se7understood13:12
Se7but why that link?13:12
brunch875it shows how to install dual boot13:12
ogra_(but if you are adventuorus you can indeed try :) the phone is open enough to do so if yo like the risk ;) )13:12
brunch875ogra_, is the access to fastboot/recovery in a read-only memory?13:13
brunch875is it possible to break the device beyond repair?13:14
ogra_the first stage  bootloader is, afaik13:14
ogra_the second stage (fastboot) is alerady read from mmc13:14
ogra_(i think)13:15
brunch875is that accessible from / ?13:16
ogra_the partition containing the bootloader ?13:16
brunch875yeah13:16
ogra_i think so13:16
brunch875so rm -rf / would brick the device13:16
brunch875hardbrick I mean13:16
ogra_yes, but not the bootloader13:16
brunch875so it would still be possible to slap the usb into it and fix it?13:17
ogra_(well, rm -rf / would not brock it if you wuldnt make it writable)13:17
ogra_*brick13:17
brunch875yeah, assuming a successful rm13:17
ogra_well, that still would needteh partition mounted to do any harm to it13:17
ogra_there is no filesystem on it ... you can not mount it13:18
brunch875that's great news13:18
brunch875knowing that I'll fiddle more with my phone13:18
ogra_yo would have to use dd on the device node (or a tool using dd) to break it13:18
* Se7 asked a nice question :P13:20
popeyahayzen: i dont think the nexus 10 has had a lot of love, I wouldn't worry too much about audio issues on that device.13:35

spazzymotoHey guys, can anyone config for me if lxc-checkconfig should look like this for the android container http://pastebin.com/9T4XmU3q14:35
spazzymotoconfirm*14:37
ogra_spazzymoto, you definitely want all namespaces enabled14:39
spazzymotoany idea where i set this?14:39
spazzymotoDo i need to do something like http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/157361/lxc-start-no-cgroup-mounted-on-the-system14:40
ogra_you need to enable all the options in your kernel config14:43
ogra_spazzymoto, you need to point the CONFIG variable to your kernel config, not the lxc setup file14:45
ogra_else it will default to just check the running kernel14:45
Talustus^^14:46
spazzymotoAh sorry :( haha looks much better http://pastebin.com/8A2LMvV214:50
spazzymotodo i need cgroup device in order for android to mount any partitions14:50
ogra_no14:56
spazzymotook cool yeah i see i can mount it manually in the container. Just need to figure out why they dont seem to be mounting on boot. Thanks15:00
ogra_why do you need it in the container ?15:04
spazzymotoIm getting [   19.716211] pil-q6v5-mss fc880000.qcom,mss: mba: Failed to locate mba.mdt in my dmesg and i see that file is locate in /firmware/image15:05
ogra_ah, i thought you mean cgroups15:06
spazzymotooh sorry, no i thought i may need it to allow mounting in the container. but as i can mount it manually in container it wouldnt seem so. cant seem to find any messages that tell me why they didnt mount :(15:07

studio_hi16:07
studio_is there an experimental channel for the bq e4.5 an its kernel?16:09
themelesproblem solved. The solution was "--keyring=no"16:19
studio_sorry, i do not know how to fix the problem with the cifs and the bq kernel by myself. i need help.16:24
studio_could "please" someone help?16:27
studio_john-mcaleely, i was reading, reading and reading, but i didn't figured out where the problem is. can you "please" help?16:30

awe_ok16:38
studio_where is the different between git checkout aquaris-E4.5-ubuntu-rtm and git checkout aquaris-E4.5-ubuntu-master? there is still missing in both cifs and nfsd?16:41
studio_come on, how to enable cifs and nfsd in the kernel?16:44
studio_hmm, nobody here is using the bq Aquaris e4.5?16:57
danrik"More Ubuntu phones coming soon…" how soon is soon?16:59
studio_if yes, would be nice how  to use "mount -t cifs" or "mount -t nfs" on the bq Aquaris e4.5 without kernel or modules!?17:00
dobeydanrik: i'm assuming you're referring to the bq site. you will have to follow @bqreaders or @ubuntu on twitter to see when the next flash sale happens, or when they start selling them generally17:01
studio_dobey, you are still there?17:02
danrikdobey, no - i'm referring to ubuntu site: http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/devices17:02
dobeystudio_: that has nothing to do with the e4.5 afaik. it sounds like you want to request that those be enabled by default on ubuntu phones. file a bug that they aren't available, and make a reasonably good argument as to how they would be beneficial to users in general (don't demand that they need to be enabled)17:02
dobeydanrik: oh, well soon is soon. when more phones are released, they will appear there i guess :)17:03
danrikdobey, im using my android phone with broken glass currently...17:03
studio_dobey, it is a problem from the kernel, the kernel is built without "love"17:04
dobeystudio_: no it is not. and please don't say such things. it is rude17:04
studio_dobey, as i told you, i am not "rude", but the kernel is built, for exp., with nfc. but E4.5 do not support nfc ....17:06
dobeystudio_: you are the only person in the past 2 years to complain about the ubuntu phone image not having cifs or nfs support.17:06
dobeystudio_: "the kernel is built without 'love'" is rude17:06
studio_true17:07
studio_is nfc in the kernel rude?17:07
dobeycifs and nfs are not something one needs on a phone in general.17:07
dobeyit is irrelevant17:07
studio_and nfc?17:08
dobeynfc is irrelevant17:08
studio_so,why it is in the kernel?17:08
dobeywhy are you talking about nfc?17:08
dobeynfc has nothing to do with cifs or nfs17:09
studio_it is compiled to the kernel!17:09
dobeythe argument of "this one thing is enabled in the kernel, so these other things should be too" is a facile argument17:09
danrikdobey, - wait  - so how do u watch something from Windows share without cifs compiled?17:09
dobeydanrik: how do you do it on an android phone? or ios? or even on a windows phone?17:10
studio_dobey, please do not missunderstand me, i try to figure out, why nfc is compiled in the kernel and cifs or nfsd is not ...17:10
danrikdobey, i dunno. im on cyanogen - and I think I can browse cifs...17:10
dobeystudio_: i don't misunderstand you at all. you are being arrogant and demanding something should be be enabled, simply because some other irrelevant option is enabled in the kernel.17:11
studio_arrogant?, come on, help me to fix the kernel!17:12
dobeyit's not broken. if you want to build your own kernel with cifs enabled and nfc disabled, then do so17:12
dobeythere's nothing more i can tell you to help you with that17:12
studio_do you help or not?17:12
dobeyi can have you removed from the channel again for being demanding and rude, if that will help?17:13
studio_so you can't or will help for this issue?17:14
dobeyi'm not going to continue answering things i've already answered, no17:14
studio_fixing the kernel is still not answered!17:14
dobeythe kernel is not broken17:15
studio_"broken" is "depending" ...17:15
dobeyno17:15
dobeybroken means it needs a change to the source code17:15
dobeywhat you want to do has nothing to do with changing the source code17:16
dobeyall you want to do is change compile time options17:16
dobeyand the kernel source code comes with plenty of documentation on how to build a kernel17:16
studio_dobey, i am not the only one who is asking for cifs and nfsd ...17:16
dobeyyou can also read the ubuntu porting guide listed in the topic17:16
dobeystudio_: yes. yes you are.17:16
studio_dobey, us google to search ...17:17
dobeystudio_: google also has links to many sites explaining how to configure and build kernels. feel free to use it as well17:18
studio_dobey, use google for an answer, "because we do not know" is not the correct way!17:19
dobeystudio_: again, you are being rude. please stop or i will ask to have you forcibly removed yet again.17:20
studio_rude is depending in your way17:20
ogra_kids, behave !17:21
studio_ok ... :(17:21
ogra_studio_, cifs and nfs are not interesting for us until we can offer app developers to do anything with them, read: once our framework supporst using network filesystems we will enable them ...17:22
ogra_if you want them right now for your personal fun, you will have to build your own kernel or modules to make it work17:22
dobeythey're not interesting even then, as having them be in kernel space presents many problems. the best way to use them would be with an app, and having it be a provider to content-hub. and yes, if you really must have it now on the phone, the only way to do so, is to build your own kernel17:23
dobeyand if you want that to stick, you'll also need to maintain your own system image builds, or simply avoid ever updating the image.17:24
dobeyagain, and again, and again, these same answers have been given.17:24
studio_dobey, no, how to enable cifs and nfsd in the kernel via "https://github.com/bq/aquaris-E4.5/tree/aquaris-E4.5-ubuntu-master"?17:25
dobeyhttps://github.com/bq/aquaris-E4.5/blob/aquaris-E4.5-ubuntu-master/kernel/Documentation/00-INDEX17:27
ogra_by configuringit and then building it17:27
dobeyit's a linux source tree, you configure it the same way as you would any other linux source tree17:28
=== salem_ is now known as _salem
studio_dobey, sorry, i do not unterstand that :( where in what folder do i have to  make  "make menuconfig"?17:40
dobeypresumably under kernel/17:40
studio_but unter kernel it is not working :(17:41
dobeyafter doing whatever is necessry to get the existing config in place17:41
dobeyread the porting guide. it's linked in the channel topic.17:41
dobeyyou're trying to build something that's already ported, but it will provide you with details on how to go about building the system17:42
dobeyyou should probably build it once as-is, so you understand how to build it, and then try to go about changing the config and rebuilding it17:45
studio_dobey, yes, it is still ported, i just want to modify ... and in the git i do not know how the "project" is set? project is the kernel config.17:45
ogra_just grab it from the device17:46
studio_ogra_, it is different from the git!17:46
ogra_the config ?17:47
ogra_indeed it is17:47
studio_yes17:47
studio_indeed, why?17:47
ogra_the tree is an unconfigured linux source tree17:47
studio_sorry, i do not understand this. i thought config.gz is the same as in the build tree?17:49
ogra_there is no config in the tree ...17:49
studio_no? so what is project?17:50
* ogra_ hasnt seen many official kernel tees that come configured 17:50
dobeywhat "project" are you talking about?17:51
studio_~/aquaris-E4.5/mediatek/config/krillin/autoconfig/kconfig/project17:51
* ogra_ has no idea17:52
studio_check it17:52
ogra_but why does it matter17:52
studio_it is the kernel config17:52
dobeywhy don't you build the kernel following the instructions, as-is first17:52
ogra_you copy the config from tehdevice into th right place, call mke menuconfig, reconfigure as needed ... build17:52
dobeyand then change the config17:53
dobeyinstead of demanding in irc that other people help you do the obvious thing?17:53
ogra_th actual configuration is assembled at build time by android scripts ... i doubt you will find anything in the kernel tree ...17:54
studio_dobey, please do not make "tamtam". clone the git and tell me in what folder i have to make "make menuconfig" ...17:54
ogra_in the top level of your kernel tree indeed17:55
ogra_like with any other kernel17:55
dobeyi am not cloning the git. and wtf is "tamtam" anyway?17:55
dobeyand i already told you where to run make menuconfig17:55
studio_ogra_, have you ever tried?17:55
ogra_there is nothing special about this tree that makes it any different from any other kernel tree17:55
dobeyhave you?17:55

roeeiHi all, any working project to get whatsapp and exchange email working with bq 4.5?19:35
nik90Does anyone know which package to install to get Ubuntu.Connectivity?19:36

dadexix86roeei, if you use whatsapp with an unofficial client they ban you. Probably the only thing to do is to wait for Mr. Facebook to give it to us (I tried to write them an email some time ago, without any reply from them).19:47
dadexix86roeei and for the other question, I'm not entirely sure about what an "exchange email" is...19:47
dobeyroeei: whatsapp will have to provide an ubuntu app themselves if you want to get it19:53
dobeyroeei: i don't think dekko supports exchange, so probably nothing really on that front either, unless you can maybe use a webapp for it19:54
dobeydadexix86: MS Exchange, the groupware server19:54
Bogdani have almost 2 weeks with ubuntu touch and i think its a beautifull experience that need more attention to details bugs and core apps development19:57
themelesdo I post bugs about the quick settings menu in ubuntu-phone in Ubuntu Phone commons?20:00
dadexix86dobey, thank you20:01
dobeyBogdan: we are constantly fixing bugs and improving things :)20:02
BogdanYes, i know...20:02
dobeythemeles: a particular icon in the top bar, or just in general?20:03
themelesdobey: the inactive tabs are not good visible in bad light because the contrast between the grey icon and the black background is to low.20:05
BogdanI fill some bugs and i have seen this in action... But there are so many things to get better... Hangouts, facebook chat integration, downloading any kind of files, options to make the phone a real smartphone, and so on...20:05
dobeythemeles: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8/+filebug is probably the best place to file that bug20:06
pmcgowannik90, qml-module-ubuntu-connectivity20:06
dobeyBogdan: "a real smartphone" is really subjective. hangouts is limited by google, facebook is limited by facebook, etc… we can only work on things that are open and not legally encumbered, really. if you want hangouts, the best thing would be to get google to write an ubuntu hangouts app and distribute it in the store20:07
themelesdobey: thank you. and another thing too: is the keyboard that is used in ubuntu-phone the ubuntu-keyboard?20:08
nik90pmcgowan: ah yes thnx20:08
nik90roeei: thnx as well, just saw your reply20:08
dobeythemeles: yes it is20:09
themelesdobey: ok than i reported the bug at the right place, thanks!20:09
dobeyno problem :)20:10
BogdanWhy pidgin have google talk integration and ubuntu touch cant have?... If pidgin can be ported to ubuntu touch s big problem would be done.20:10
Bogdan;)20:10
dobeythere's a big difference between xmpp text chat, and "hangouts"20:11
mcphailBogdan: Android took several iterations, a couple of years, thousands of devs and the might of Google to be usable. UT has been out int he wild for a bout 2 weeks. Give it a chance!20:12
BogdanOk, i need google talk chat.... Could someone do this?20:12
BogdanOk, i see20:12
dobeyxmpp will likely come in the future, but proper integration requires changes in the messaging app UI, and such20:12
BogdanOk20:12
dobeybut telepathy is on the phone, and yes, it's possible to have IM. it just requires a lot of work to make it right20:13
BogdanI miss very much a basic google talk20:13
dobeyi agree it would be nice to have20:15
BogdanI miss gtalk, facebook messenger, feedly app and basicaly that is all i need more.20:15
dobeybut getting IM right on the phone is a lot of work20:15
dobeyis feedly just a web thing?20:16
BogdanI like the phone, the OS, its beautifull. I tried my wife android phone snd tried to use right edge... But nothing...20:16
Bogdan;)20:16
mcphailBogdan: I'm sure the talk and messaging apps with open protocols will come along when the plumbing is in place. Ubuntu-touch seems much easier to develop for than Android or ios20:16
mcphailBogdan: we've ported some in-house stuff to UT in a couple of days. It took us ages to get it working right on Android. Have faith :)20:18
BogdanI will try feedly in browser20:18
Bogdanbrowser20:18
brunch875feedly doesn't work for me on the browser20:19
brunch875it chokes on its javascript machinery20:19
brunch875I've noticed the browser doesn't behave well with popups20:20
BogdanOk. I will wait... I was waiting for this phone for 2 years, and i will wait a year from now on... But i hope to see progress on this area.20:20
dobeyyeah, popups on mobile is bad20:20
dobeywell, popups are bad20:20
dobeybut worse on mobile :)20:20
brunch875yeah, they're bad20:21
brunch875I was visiting euuh... "you'll know when you're older" stuff yesterday; which tends to spam with dodgy popups20:22
brunch875it broke the tabs on the browser20:22
brunch875opened tabs disappeared, but I could still hear the audio20:22
brunch875closing the browser and opening it again wouldn't fix this inconsistent state20:22
brunch875had to reboot the phone20:22
matv1has anyone experienced being unable to unlock the phone after testrunning an qml app on the phone(mako) from the sdk?20:24
BogdanIs youtube working on your bq phones?20:25
brunch875it id20:25
brunch875it is* flawlessly20:25
BogdanI hear just audio, not any video20:25
Dragonkeeperyeah, i hate the scope tho20:25
dobeyBogdan: works here20:25
BogdanOh... I am the only one?20:26
DragonkeeperBogdan: only if your connection sucks20:26
brunch875is your internet slow?20:26
nik90matv1: are you running vivid? or rtm?20:26
nik90matv1: I have noticed that issue on vivid20:26
BogdanNo, i have powerfull internet20:26
matv1nik90 vivid20:26
brunch875do you have a lot of stuff open when watching the videos?20:26
brunch875like facebook and a lot of opened tabs on the browser20:27
BogdanI dont know, the phone is like i bought? is it rtm?20:27
pmcgowanBogdan, do you have the v20 update?20:27
matv1nik90 ah so I am not alone. good to know :)20:27
BogdanYes, i have 2020:27
nik90matv1: well, the situation still sucks :P ... that's why I get back to rtm as fast I can when possible20:28
BogdanDo you need a copy paste from youtube log. I have logwiewer20:28
Bogdan?20:28
nik90matv1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8/+bug/142941520:28
brunch875Bogdan: did you try closing your browser tabs?20:28
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1429415 in unity8 (Ubuntu) "Unable to enter password in the lock screen after using Qtcreator to run apps on the device" [Undecided,New]20:28
brunch875maybe you're just out of memory20:29
matv1nik90 ah yes that sounds like what i am seeing20:29
BogdanI hear sound, no video. I tried youtube scope, also youtube in browser. No video, just sound20:32
matv1nik90 thanks fr the info. i will stick with vivid though. cant do without seeing all the new stuff right asap :)20:33
brunch875after closing all tabs?20:33
BogdanYes20:33
brunch875that's weird, I can't seem to re-create the issue20:33
BogdanIs there a log i can send you20:34
brunch875I can take a look at it :D but I'm not a youtube developer20:34
brunch875here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20:35
BogdanI have Logviewer. What section i need to copy?20:36
BogdanMediahub?20:37
brunch875no idea :x20:37
brunch875oh, I misread you had a log on your hands20:38
brunch875my bad!20:38
BogdanHttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1075395420:40
dobeyBogdan: youtube doesn't go through mediahub20:41
BogdanWhere then?20:42
dobeyit's just html5 video direct in the browser20:42
dobeyso maybe the youtube app log if there is one, but i'm not sure it will have anything helpful in it20:43
dobeyBogdan: also, most all of EU was on holiday today, so you're more likely to get some help tomorrow :)20:43
BogdanOk. Thanks. I will come here tomorrow.20:44
BogdanGood night20:44

brunch875good luck!20:44

Bogdantarget density dpi id the problem20:47
brunch875It's interesting. I've read someone complain about the same audio-only playback issue.20:55
pmcgowanhmm20:56
brunch875But I have a BQ device myself and I've never encountered it20:56
pmcgowanwonder if he hits a different server or something20:56
brunch875sometimes video gets to stutter when the phone is loaded but otherwise nothing :\20:56
dobeyi have audio only for local videos, on my nexus5; but i think that might be a hardware support issue20:58
pmcgowanthat seems to be an old tag thats been deprecated20:59
dobeypmcgowan: wrong channel? :P21:01
pmcgowandobey, hmm? I should have said key The key "target-densitydpi" is not supported.21:03
pmcgowanseems this was reported before and mistakenly duped21:03
dobeypmcgowan: oh, the youtube issue?21:04
pmcgowanyep21:04
dobeyah ok21:04
brunch875ooo phone uses upstart21:05
dobeyyes it does21:05
dobeyat least, until we can make it not21:05
brunch875I've heard a lot of rambling about systemd21:06
brunch875but I have no idea how either works21:06
dobeyso probably sometime during development of 15.1021:06
dobeyah well, time to go. later :)21:08
brunch875enjoy your sleep21:09
brunch875(or not) :D21:09
dobeybeer and food, then maybe sleep in ~6 hours :P21:09

cwaynepopey, heya, got time for a quick review? :) https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/click-apps/2223/21:24
nik90popey: oh man I can remember the old days where you and dholbach used to manually review every app that was added to the store ;-P21:30
cwaynenik90, now its just every one of my apps :P21:33
popeyheh21:34
popeydone21:34
natasanyone with skillz in Linux deploy on android?21:34
cwaynepopey, <321:35
popeynik90: yeah, now I just watch this climbing... http://popey.mooo.com/mirror/clicks/graph_clicks.png21:36
popeyo/ bed21:36
popeynn21:36
nik90popey: oh wow its a nice steep climb since march 201521:37
ahoneybunlots of webapps21:40
nik90ahoneybun: well there are some native apps as well in that climb :)21:44
embrikyo, I've purchased the ubuntu-phonme even though I am from Norway :-) When I play music from spotify it stops when the phone goes into sleep - how do I put spotify in the group for apps to still run swhen the phone is in sleep (hibernate?)21:44
nik90and scopes21:44
nik90embrik: let me guess cute spotify?21:44
embrikyes21:44
nik90embrik: It can't be done afaik :/ .. I think the issue was that spotify provides the data in chunks which is not supported by the platform service media-hub.21:46
nik90embrik: there are apps which stream music from the web and is support quite well, but that doesn't seem to work with spotify for some reason.21:46
nik90may be Elleo (cute spotify developer) can explain ^^21:47
embrikhmm - isn't it possible to tweak it? I mean, there is an option to chose apps to run when the phone is in sleep21:47
Elleoembrik: no option for that I'm afraid; only a hard coded list in unity8 (which currently only includes the music app)21:49
embrikElleo, Grooveshark?21:50
Elleoembrik: what about it?21:50
ahoneybunnik90: that would include my app as well21:50
nik90ahoneybun: which app?21:51
embrikIs grooveshark the app in the phone which works when the phone is in sleep? (is it called hibernate in english?)21:51
Elleoembrik: the grooveshark app still gets suspended just like cutespotify does, the difference is that grooveshark provides audio files instead of raw audio streams, so these can be passed to the media-hub service (which carries on running when apps are suspended)21:51
embrikthe question was meant for Elleo21:51
Elleoembrik: but that isn't an option for spotify due to the way libspotify works21:52
Elleoembrik: it only provides raw chunks of audio in real-time (presumably in some attempt to protect their DRM or something)21:52
nik90cwayne: well someone is got to keep popey busy ;)21:53
embrikElleo, I see, but I don't understand :-) Are there any music apps I can use to play music in my car via bluetoooth without it stopping?21:53
Elleoembrik: the music app21:53
Elleoembrik: (you'll need to copy some music on to your phone)21:54
embrikElleo, Ok - got the phone yesterday. Haven't had much time with it. There are no apps on it called music and I can't find it in the repository.21:55
Elleoembrik: the music app should be installed by default, it's name is probably translated into your native language though21:56
embrikElleo, sorry - found it21:56
Elleoembrik: it'll have an icon of a musical note21:56
Elleoembrik: great :)21:56
ahoneybunnik90: gazeteer21:57
embrikI have to download like in the old days - great - I like this :-) I've been away from linux for some years becauese of the work - but this gives me a thrill21:57
Elleo:)21:57
nik90embrik: if you like podcasts, then podbird will help you there and can play stuff in the background :P22:00
embriknik90, what about pidgin? I find it a bit old fashioned to communicate on it?22:01
embriknik90, have to log into facebook to talk22:01
nik90embrik: I hear that the IM backend is in place if I vaguely remember, but the UI needs to be integrated into the default messaging app which is a bit complicated22:02
nik90well more a long process22:03
embriknik90, ok - we'll just wait for it then22:03
nik90ahayzen: why does a scoreboard for a game need to run in the background?22:04
ahayzenahoneybun, ^^22:04
nik90bah I meant that to ahoneybun ^^22:04
nik90sry :P22:04
ahayzenno worries lol ;)22:04
embriknik90, Is ther a messaging app as well?22:04
nik90embrik: yeah there should be a default messaging app22:04
ahoneybunnik90: run in the background?22:04
nik90embrik: looks like you need to first the existing apps22:05
embriknik90, I'll searc then - got it yesterday :-)22:05
nik90ahoneybun: yeah you meantioned "<ahoneybun> nik90: that would include my app as well"22:05
nik90ahoneybun: or was that for a manual review or something?22:05
ahoneybunoh no nik90 you said [17:51] <nik90> ahoneybun: which app?22:05
ahoneybunI was just late with the reply22:06
nik90ahoneybun: oh22:06
ahoneybunyea'22:06
embriknik90, can't find any communication app. What is it called? Do you know?22:09
nik90embrik: its called "Messaging" in english..it has sms/mms support22:09
nik90embrik: it is not a google talk/facebook chat client if that's what you were expecting22:10
embriknik90, well, 've found that- yes I need a client to talk on facebook22:10
natasyou guys know if there is a Linux deploy chat somewhere?22:12
nik90embrik: it will come in due course..after all this is the first version of ubuntu touch out there22:12
embriknik90, is it possible to ssh to it?22:13
nik90embrik: yes, but I am not sure how to do it..22:13
nik90embrik: I usually adb shell, or phablet-shell into it22:14
nik90and run commands22:14
embriknik90, thanks22:14
embriknik90, sorry for asking - I'm kind of new to this. I've use ssh alot like this ssh username@ip-adresse on host - but how do I use adb shell or phablet shell?22:17
nik90embrik: for adb-shell and phablet-shell you need to connect the device via usb22:17
embriknik90, ok22:18
embriknik90, what do i write on the pc?22:18
=== salem_ is now known as _salem
nik90embrik: But first, go to Settings App -> About this phone -> Developer Mode -> Enable Developer Mode Switch22:18
nik90embrik: then connect the device via usb22:19
nik90embrik: and then run "phablet-shell" or "adb shell" in the pc terminal22:19
embriknik90, I'll do that22:19
nik90you should then be in the phone's terminal command prompt22:19
nik90embrik: Oh also make sure to unlock the device when you type the command in the pc terminal (for security reasons adb, phablet-shell doesn't list your device if it is locked)22:20
=== _salem is now known as salem_
embriknik90, Think I have a too old distro: 12.04. Can't find phablet-shell in the repository22:24
embriknik90, the phone doesn't even show up when I connect it to the pc22:25
georg1982can you tell me how to change the partition layout for ubuntu touch?22:25
nik90embrik: hmm well to get the phablet-tools package you would need to add the ubuntu sdk ppa, but I am not sure if it supports 12.04.22:27
nik90embrik: let me check22:27
nik90embrik: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa PPA will provide that package to you..BUT it hasn't been updated for 12.04 for almost a year. So I wouldn't add it.22:29
nik90embrik: it would be best to keep up with the latest LTS release..I am myself running 14.0422:29
dadexix86hi all. is there a way to start a secret chat on telegram?22:35
Elleodadexix86: if you bring up someone's contact info there's a "Start secret chat" option22:41
dadexix86Elleo, there it is! thank you very much :)22:41
Elleodadexix86: you can do that by either tapping their name in a chat, or starting a new chat with that person and tapping the person icon in the top right22:41
Elleodadexix86: no worries :)22:41

embriknik90, I have 14.04 installed on my parents laptop, but it runs slow on old hardware :-( My phone doesn't show on 12.0423:07
embrikanyone: I can't browse my phone on distro 12.0423:12
embrikIt doesn't  show23:12
dadexix86embrik, you have to update the mtp drivers, or switch to 14.0423:20
embrikI can't reach my phone on usb or bluetoooth23:25
embrikUsing ubuntu 12.04 on pc23:25
embrikI am a bit disapointed. Have worked with linux some years ago. Bought myself ubunt phone, and really looked forward to smooth connetction with my ubuntu pc, but nothing works. Not usb, nor bluetooth23:32
