[00:09] hi [00:10] finally, I got the bq ubuntu phone and I have to say it's nice [00:10] ;) [00:13] I bought a SD card, too. but how can I format or add it to the phones memory... I can't find it in the settigns dialog [00:55] Saviq: thanks, I +1ed the bug report. === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk [06:44] 'morning === ecloud_wfh is now known as ecloud === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun [07:18] good morning [07:23] Hi! I use the rtm channel, but I want to try the vivid relase on my phone. My question: Is devel (not proposed) channel has QA before an image release? So it is more stable than the devel-proposed, right? Is it enough stable for everyday use for the main things (phone, sms, etc)? [07:28] robin-hero, the devel channel gets a little QA but is also weeks behind and not bugfree [07:30] So which channel I need to run If I want new features, but it has QA for the main things (phone, messages) at least? [07:31] well, thats devel, it gets a small sanity test before the image moves from -proposed [07:34] thanks :) using a stable release is very boring :) [07:34] hahaha [07:35] * ogra_ likes to have a functioning phone ... [07:37] ogra_: yeah, I need to buy a used Nexus4 just for testing :D [07:40] how much are they these days ? [07:41] * ogra_ wonders if it wouldnt be cheaper to buy a bq :) [07:45] In Hungary a used Nexus4 130-160, bq with posting fee is 210 euro [07:45] *200 === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk [08:29] Hi everyone! I have a synaptics with 3-finger-swipe capability (as shown by xinput list-props) and I wonder how I can activate that in Unity, so that e.g. I can change the workspace with it? [08:30] pitti, morning! Quick question: what's the best way to find out how many -touch language packs are preinstalled on the phone to estimate how many languages are available there? [08:30] bgd, you might want to ask in #ubuntu-x .... this is the phone channel ;) [08:31] dpm: good morning! [08:31] dpm: hm, how about: dpkg -l language-pack*|grep -c ^ii [08:31] hey :) [08:31] ok, on it, let me try [08:31] thanks [08:32] dpm: but I think we still actually install all touch langpacks, so: [08:32] $ apt-cache search language-pack-touch|wc -l [08:32] 40 [08:33] awesome, thanks! [08:35] Good morning all; happy Friday and happy Teach Your Children to Save Day! :-D [08:38] ogra_: thx [08:41] Saviq: tsdgeos: you probably never got close to 30 solid reboots with the unlock-device loop, so I can stop and start tuning? [08:41] if I remember correctly, you usually got it under 10? [08:41] Mirv: yeah 30 reboots seems solid enough [08:42] Mirv, oh, also please let tony know what you plan to do, we should get his approval [08:42] (awe) [08:44] ok [08:52] kenvandine: ping [08:54] kenvandine: unping :) === mzanetti_ is now known as mzanetti === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun [09:04] hi all. i use the devel-proposed images, and three things, i really don't like and should be better. one is even not logical for the design philosophy i think. where can i place these things best (not bugs, but more feature requests). [09:12] E524: the bug tracker is also used for feature requests. :) [09:19] ok thanks [09:19] i will have a look into it (never used a bugtracker) === timchen1` is now known as timchen119 === oSoMoN_ is now known as oSoMoN [09:37] Mirv, +1 [09:41] E524, file against the project it affects, not ubuntu-ux [09:41] E524, there's also this handy overview https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Avengers [09:41] jodh, hey, so we have bug 1447756 for the reboot loop issue now ... [09:41] bug 1447756 in upstart (Ubuntu) "segfault in log.c code causes phone reboot loops" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1447756 [09:41] ogra_: yep - investigating now... [09:42] cool, ondra has a device that can reproduce the issue (but i havent seen him today yet) [09:42] ogra_: did the --no-log work? [09:42] i dont know, i was asking him to test it last night, but seeems he didnt get to that yet [09:43] we also dont really want to lose all logging of system jobs ... [09:43] so it would only be for verification [09:47] jgdx: thanks for the info, i am reading into it. one "bug" is not reported, now i need to find a good way to descripe it and make it reproducable for the devs. [09:51] Can anyone confirm if changing the orientation of *any* app to landscape and then press on the tab menu or header actions causes the app to crash on vivid devel-proposed? [09:52] example apps include gallery [09:52] nik90, ouch, yes [09:53] * nik90 wonders if it is a SDK or Unity8 bug... [09:53] nik90, are you filing? Since the app crashes I'm guessing sdk [09:54] zsombi ^ [09:54] jgdx: yeah I am filing now [09:54] thanks! [09:56] mpt, apns can be deactivated. How do you re-activate an apn with the current spec? [09:57] jgdx, what is deactivating an APN? [09:58] mpt, force majeure [09:58] jgdx, I haven’t seen that film yet [09:58] mpt, it's latin for NetworkManager [09:59] zsombi, jgdx: bug 1448017 [09:59] bug 1448017 in ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) "Apps crash when opening tab menus in landscape mode" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1448017 [09:59] mpt, actually, I'll take it up with Tony. Not sure it's supposed to happen [10:01] jgdx, if NetworkManager finds itself with a cellular connection but no APN settings, when it previously had them, I would suggest (1) queue a report for sending to errors.ubuntu.com then (2) trigger the automatic provisioning [10:01] jgdx, the flaw with that plan is that the same bug that causes the APN settings to be wiped might also prevent it from knowing that the settings previously existed at all [10:03] mpt, I have a lecture, but I'll be back. [10:05] hi, about those snappy based images for 15.10, that will be only for Ubuntu Next? regular Ubuntu will not be Snappy based in 15.10? [10:06] yes [10:06] regular ubuntu = unity 7 based. [10:06] but eventually it will switch ... [10:07] (not in 15.10 indeed) [10:07] thanks for the clarification, I am writing a review of 15.04 for a local Linux portal so I needed to be sure. [10:08] but .deb will still work in the future when it switches to snappy? [10:08] snappy is definitely the future for almost everything ... but when that future is there is still a bit open :) [10:08] no [10:08] ondra: can you poing me when you're about please? [10:08] deb doesnt fit the snappy concept [10:08] ogra_: ping even! :) [10:08] ping [10:08] :P [10:09] ogra_: sorry, keyboard fart [10:09] haha [10:09] what happens to external software if .deb wont work, that are currently downloadable as .debs [10:09] EdwardMorbius, there will be tools to convert them ... [10:10] ogra_ so the user will be able to do it himself, downloads the deb and converts [10:10] but a snap operates completely different from a deb, snaps usually ship all dependencies inside etc [10:10] no [10:10] well, yes [10:10] but generally the expectation is that upstreams simply add theirs stuff to the store [10:11] that included proprietary software like lightworks and skype for example, skype is in the store but lightworks isnt. [10:11] because rolling a snap is a lot more trivial than packaging a deb ... and the design allows completely untrusted SW [10:12] so everyone can upload to the store [10:12] apps are completely independent from the system too ... which means you can upgrade bot completely separately from each other [10:12] ogra_ I see, if its easier than deb then probably there wont be a problem with getting external debs in snappy format [10:13] i.e. you can run a 3 year old snappy desktop with the latest libreoffice and firefox [10:13] updated applications will likely be greatly appreciated by people, as now we need to upgrade the whole system to get new ones or use ppas [10:13] without ever updating the OS if ypou want [10:14] and thanks to the store design there can be a libreoffice.EdwardMorbius and a libreoffice.ogra in the store ... no more PPAs needed [10:14] you just pick the package from the namespace you want ... it all comes from the same store [10:14] so people who package ppas can simply move their stuff to the store? that will be great [10:14] yeah [10:15] and upstreams can just dump their upstream tarballs into snaps without packaging knowlegde [10:15] EdwardMorbius: note there will still be a deb based desktop in 16.04 LTS [10:15] over time i assume you will see more snaps than debs around and debs will only be used to assemble the images [10:15] note that the deb archive will *never* go away [10:16] great, I think maybe all this should be posted on Ubuntu website or somewhere else that is "official" so people know more details [10:16] and there will likely still be isos for the old install variant [10:16] popey so snappy desktop will likely come after 16.04? [10:16] no [10:16] in parallel [10:16] I like that :)) [10:16] but once snappy is *really* ready with the above vision, the idea is to have snappy everywhere as default [10:17] so your robot or smartwatch run the exact same snappy-core your desktop runs [10:17] or your phone ... or cloud [10:17] only the frameworks on top of it will differ then [10:18] and that is what i like to call convergence on a plubing layer ;) [10:18] sounds great, plenty to look forward to in the future :) [10:18] (convergence is so much more than just "aww, my app runs on different formfactors" ) [10:20] yes, it is future with all these devices now used, and more to come. can snappy be considered in any way "rolling" or "semi-rolling"? or OS layer gets new stuff once new versions comes out [10:20] it is already rolling [10:21] snappy rolls similar to the phone [10:21] so snappy will transform Ubuntu in a rolling distribution, you install once and thats it [10:21] in a way [10:21] right ... [10:22] though its even a bit different from actual rolling [10:22] the core bits will be rolling [10:22] why am i reading "trolling" all the time? ;p [10:22] core bits like kernel etc? [10:22] but as i said above, apps are 100% independent from the system [10:22] jgdx: nik90: that is similar to the bug when text input's context menu is open in portrait and you turn it to landscape [10:22] kalikiana: ^ [10:23] kalikiana: bug 1448017 [10:23] bug 1448017 in ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) "Apps crash when opening tab menus in landscape mode" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1448017 [10:23] the core OS ... ubuntu-core ... and the frameworks it uses (Mir, Xorg ... system level libs will be in frameworks) [10:23] but apps will be updated when upstream wants to update them [10:24] jgdx: btw, do you happen to know anything about the bug 1433590? [10:24] bug 1433590 in ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) "apparmor dbus denial for org.freedesktop.Accounts" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1433590 [10:24] jgdx: like do we have a new service for that? what is the status from that front? [10:24] EdwardMorbius, btw, this conversation fits better in #snappy :) [10:25] ogra_ probably :) but you guys told me what I needed to know, thanks :) I will ask more there if necessary. [10:25] cool [10:27] now I am off writing that review, have fun guys :) [10:27] you too [10:35] zsombi: ah I wasn't aware of that bug [10:42] jodh ping [10:50] ondra: I've got a possible fix for bug 1447756.

I'll try to nail it down asap (next week I'll be doing a lot of work with location) [14:48] mandel: Sure [14:49] SturmFlut, superb, thx [14:49] mandel: Which project to I file it against?

( wait for the battery to drain takes a while... ) [19:09] kapiteined: if you hold the power button for like 15 seconds it will reboot i think; if you have developer mode enabled you could also try connecting over usb with phablet-shell and seeing if something is using all the cpu or such [19:10] SturmFlut: file manager will get support for smb at some point, afaik [19:10] Thanks! 15 seconds did the trick!

That's great! [19:46] yep. [19:46] because i kind of hate the web ui for it, and i have to use trello :) [19:47] well the scope would be handy when you are sharing your trello board with other people and just want to quickly see the status of the cards in a scope. [19:47] for creating/editiing a card, an app would be the way to go as expected [19:47] well, maybe; i just meant i don't immediately see a good way to represent the structure of things in trello, in a scope [19:48] if it's just the "set of cards assigned to me" maybe it wouldn't be so bad though [19:48] dobey: well let us know when you have something up and running..would love to propose stuff against it [19:49] i mostly don't care to know what the status of my own cards are though. i want to move them around :) [19:49] yeah, i've been really busy and haven't had time to make much progress with it yet so far [19:51] yeah I can imagine [19:51] and online accounts stressed me out when i was trying to make that work [19:51] oh oh! I found an ugly bug. Know moodle? When trying to download a pdf after login, the download always fails! [19:52] I can't download my course materials :[ [19:52] also, the 'files' section gets stuck red and can't dismiss the failed "unknown downloads" [19:52] well, can actually dismiss them; but only temporarily [20:42] I hope someone will help me here. I'm trying 'avconv -f pulse -i default -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video100 ~/Videos/myTest.wav', to record video. works fine on desktop but no luck on the phone. here is an error msg: [video4linux2 @ 0x1a14640] Cannot find a proper format for codec_id 0, pix_fmt -1. [20:43] I tried /dev/video0, video1... too [20:44] if I want to record audio only, works fine. [21:15] muka: i'm not sure if the camera is accessible via v4l on the phone. i'm not sure the android hal exposes it as a v4l device. === salem_ is now known as _salem [21:47] hi [21:48] are m3u tested on ut and if yes how to play them?
