| Guest85596 | AAh that's me. | 02:02 |
| Guest85596 | can someone tell me how to convert the Galaxy tab3 8" tablet from Android to Ubuntu 14.XX | 02:04 |
| ibeardslee | not if you don't hang around | 02:05 |
| gondor33 | Hi , | 02:09 |
| ibeardslee | Didn't know you could. | 02:10 |
| ibeardslee | .. but the things you learn from google eh? | 02:11 |
| gondor33 | I've sent a few messages about Galaxy tab 3 8" tablet conversion from Android to Ubuntu. Being new on this message board, Ive cut myself off once or twice as a guest. | 02:13 |
| ibeardslee | IRC is not really a message board | 02:14 |
| gondor33 | It's a similar thing | 02:15 |
| ibeardslee | Anyway, I think google will be your friend there. Seem to be a good number of posts about it .. or at least devices similar .. may not be your particular model. | 02:17 |
| gondor33 | anyway can someone advise me with some technical help? | 02:18 |
| ibeardslee | maybe, what help are you asking about? | 02:19 |
| gondor33 | read my 14:13 message! | 02:22 |
| ibeardslee | hmm my 14:17 message is my response to that | 02:22 |
| ibeardslee | how far have you got? | 02:23 |
| gondor33 | Nowhere,yet. | 02:28 |
| gondor33 | This appears to be of no help to me. Thanks, anyway. Cheers | 02:37 |
| * olly rolls eyes | 02:44 | |
| ibeardslee | heh .. I've got a problem, I haven't done anything about it, you are of no help, I'm going. | 02:44 |
| olly | indeed | 02:45 |
| olly | is 14.04 supposed to have a toolbar thing along the top with volume control, wifi status, a way to suspend/reboot/etc? | 02:46 |
| olly | after a double upgrade via 12.04, I don't have one | 02:46 |
| olly | and I have to start the unity dock by hand | 02:46 |
| olly | overall, I'm underwhelmed by the upgrade experience - both of them failed and I had to continue by hand, which is probably why it's hosed | 02:47 |
| ibeardslee | yes | 02:49 |
| olly | any idea what the program is called which does that toolbar thing? | 02:50 |
| ibeardslee | try creating a new user and log in as them to check that everything really is working as expected | 02:50 |
| olly | oh, that's a thought | 02:50 |
| ibeardslee | I had someone with a similar problem, although well after an upgrade. | 02:51 |
| olly | also need to figure out how to put the window buttons back on the right side, as it seems to have overwritten that | 02:51 |
| olly | and most of the other custom settings | 02:51 |
| ibeardslee | removed ~/.config and reset all the unity stuff to default. | 02:51 |
| olly | hmm, if I have to lose all the config, I might as well reinstall | 02:53 |
| ibeardslee | I wonder if there is just an old custom tweak that is just clashing with the 14.04 settings | 02:53 |
| chilts | ibeardslee: you tried so ++ on that (which is more than can be said for the original asker) | 04:31 |
| chilts | so yeah, I didn't realise, perhaps I should put Ubuntu Touch onto my old Nexus 7 | 04:36 |
| chilts | seeing as the 5.x release of Android has pretty much hosed it into being unusable | 04:36 |

| olly | morning | 23:32 |
