[00:37] <Talustus> yeah true adrian47
[00:37] <Talustus> i think cm11 is much better patched etc then the aosp base also it supports a bigger range of devices
[01:03] <gingermouse> I'd like to run an X11 application (hexchat) on my Ubuntu phone installation on my Nexus 5. How do I go about installing/launching Xmir so that I can do that?
[04:03] <lotuspsychje> YES YES

[04:03] <lotuspsychje> finally realy good news
[04:04] <lotuspsychje> nhaines: happy to hear you like your new n7,did you try that multirom app?
[04:25] <lotuspsychje> also good work on the browser-app settings, very nice guys

[06:21] <bagginsDK> Hello, is any brief tutorial on how to install ubuntu on smartphones? Also is there any documentation about minimum system requirements?
[06:24] <lotuspsychje> !devices | bagginsDK
[06:24] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: wich phone do you want touch on?
[06:24] <bagginsDK> lotuspsychje, to a chinese smartphone.
[06:24] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: brand?
[06:26] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: you might wanna look up the XDA forums for your devices for ports
[06:26] <bagginsDK> lotuspsychje, i am not aware of it to be honest
[06:28] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: for now only nexus devices work best with ubuntu touch
[06:28] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: so if you want other devices, you need to port it yourself or find an existing project
[06:29] <bagginsDK> I have tried with Fedora unsuccessfully and now it is my first time on ubuntu. It is just for testing purposes.
[06:30] <lotuspsychje> bagginsDK: check XDA forums for your smartphone brand
[06:30] <bagginsDK> lotuspsychje, thank you
[07:13] <Ev3rt> is the server still offline?
[07:13] <Ev3rt> getting the clone.bundle error for 3 weeks now
[07:21] <nhaines> gingermouse: first you wait until vivid+1.  Then, I think, it should Just Work™.
[07:22] <gingermouse> nhaines: how is Will Cooke doing it?
[07:24] <nhaines> gingermouse: http://i.imgur.com/96dDYVF.jpg
[07:24] <gingermouse> =/
[07:24] <nhaines> gingermouse: Mir/XMir PPA.
[07:27] <gingermouse> Which one is that?
[07:27] <nhaines> I don't remember whose.  But the good news is that he was happy to tell me when I asked, and I was happy to disregard advice that would likely lead to my phone being unusable.  :D
[07:28] <nhaines> Although frankly, my new Nexus 7 is functioning altogether too well since I got it on Tuesday, and the case came today, so it might be time....
[07:29] <gingermouse> Lol
[07:32] <gingermouse> nhaines: if you remember what that ppa is, please let me know. There aren't any IRC clients available for Ubuntu Touch right now.
[07:32] <nhaines> gingermouse: I believe you're forgetting irssi.
[07:32] <nhaines> Also screen.
[07:32] <gingermouse> Eww
[07:33] <gingermouse> Not on my phone, especially
[07:47] <ericc> 有没有人啊
[08:05] <Nothing_Much> Does Ubuntu Touch support Nvidia Tegra ARM CPUs?
[08:05] <Nothing_Much>  or.. SoCs?
[08:09] <Nothing_Much> honk
[08:09] <nhaines> !patience
[08:10] <Nothing_Much> yeah i'm looking at the porting guides, but do I need to be a developer to port something? I know somewhat basic types of compiling from source code and stuff
[08:10] <popey> its a bit of an expert job
[08:10] <nhaines> Yup.  You have to do the hardware enablement yourself.
[08:10] <Nothing_Much> oh darn
[08:11] <popey> we have had touch running on tegra
[08:11] <Nothing_Much> so it's not like you can compile it on a tegra at all?
[08:11] <popey> Nexus 7 2012 is tegra
[08:11] <popey> we no longer support it, which may say a lot :)
[08:12] <Nothing_Much> well, I was thinking more on the Nvidia Shield tablet with a Tegra K1 or a Tegra X1 if the new Shield Portable comes out
[08:12] <Nothing_Much> Shield Portable 2*
[08:12] <popey> Good luck ! :)
[08:13] <Nothing_Much> I don't know how to program, but I can donate or pay someone to port it or something.
[08:13] <popey> well, someone would need a device
[08:13] <popey> last time I spoke to ondra he estimated a month of solid work to port to any new platform
[08:13] <popey> how much would you pay for a months work?
[08:14] <nhaines> popey: that's at least $20.
[08:14] <Nothing_Much> idk, all I know is that programmers get paid a LOT of money, so it's probably well out of my budget
[08:14]  * Nothing_Much is a wishful thinker
[08:15] <Nothing_Much> would it be possible to have the source code uh... coded then uploaded somewhere that I can download and try compiling it on the device?
[08:15] <Nothing_Much> or would the developer NEED to have the device on hand in order for that to happen?
[08:16] <nhaines> It's very likely that anyone doing the work would make binaries available that you could then flash.  The trick is that whatever magic happens to make Ubuntu run on your device has to be repeated for every single new release of Ubuntu.
[08:16] <popey> ou really need the device
[08:17] <popey> nhaines: no it doesn't.
[08:17] <popey> we separate the device specific parts from the ubuntu parts deliberately so you don't have to do that
[08:17] <nhaines> Would be a pretty good trick, although I wonder about some of the libhybris stuff.
[08:17] <Nothing_Much> hmm.. oh crud, I forgot about libhybris
[08:18] <Nothing_Much> tried my hand at compiling libhybris on some tablet I had
[08:18] <Nothing_Much> had no luck :<
[08:18] <nhaines> Although if those patches to support new hardware don't break other things, they they can go upstream into Ubuntu.  And that's good news.
[08:18] <popey> there's more to just compiling it
[08:19] <Nothing_Much> yeah I know, most of the games/projects I've compiled on ARM.. compiled
[08:19] <Nothing_Much> so an OS is much more complex than just the kernel and a couple of games
[08:20]  * nhaines notes that anything technical that popey says supersedes anything I say.
[08:22] <Nothing_Much> I'd love for the kernel to.. pretty much upgrade, while Android uses a much older, but thankfully LTS kernel
[08:24] <Nothing_Much> I feel stupid now, I don't even have an Nvidia Shield product. :(
[08:25] <nhaines> Nothing_Much: thinking about possibilities and solutions isn't bad.  But yes, not having development hardware can be problematic even if you are a total expert.  :)
[08:32] <popey> hah
[08:35] <NIN101> is this userland of the bq 100% open source?
[08:36] <NIN101> s/this/the
[08:46] <popey> no
[08:46] <popey> well, "it depends"
[08:46] <popey> depends which image you install on a device
[08:47] <popey> if you buy a retail phone then there may be some non-free bits on it
[08:47] <popey> if you flash one of the community / developer images (like onto a nexus 4) then yes, I think everything "userland" is open, that we can open.
[08:47] <popey> (i.e. things we don't own, we can't open)
[08:47] <popey> e.g. Nokia HERE blob.
[08:48] <popey> sorry to be vague :(
[08:49] <NIN101> popey: thx.
[09:41] <Se7> morning all
[09:45] <popey> yo
[10:09] <Se7> just installed google maps not the one with g icon and notice that the gps work

[11:42] <brunch875> hmmm it's not possible to write a contact's name using the dialpad
[11:42] <brunch875> but the letters are there so it's confising :S
[12:39] <speedmonkey027> hey all is anyone working on a ubuntu touch port for the galaxy i717?
[16:34] <AskUbuntu> Importing custom CA and personal SSL certificates into Ubuntu Touch web browser | http://askubuntu.com/q/608061
[19:31] <brunch875> I really really really really really like the search function in the apps scope
[19:31] <brunch875> thumbs up to creator
[19:51] <brunch875> Does utouch use telepathy?
[19:59] <Mirv> brunch875: yes, it does (use telepathy)
[19:59] <Mirv> via telepathy Qt5 library
[19:59] <brunch875> that's pretty neat
[19:59] <brunch875> I can't wait till we get some sort of empathy
