[00:09] <eikon81g> Does anyone know off hand if Ubuntu touch will run on a Surface?
[00:32] <mariogrip> eikon81g: Do you know if the Surface run on a x64 or a ARM CPU?
[00:34] <mariogrip> if x64 you probably can install ubuntu desktop.
[00:34] <eikon81g> Nah, it's ARM
[00:34] <eikon81g> this is the first one..
[00:35] <eikon81g> The RT build of windows on it is pretty locked down. You literally have to run a jailbreak script each time you boot it to run unsigned code..
[00:35] <eikon81g> Dirty little trick.\
[00:38] <mariogrip> i guess you will run into an issue sinc ubuntu uses android as the "base"
[00:38] <mariogrip> since*

[00:44] <DonkeyHotei> desktop runs on the surface pro
[00:44] <eikon81g> ty mariogrip
[00:46] <mariogrip> np
[00:49] <ubuntu64bit> any input about ubuntu phone?
[00:50] <eikon81g> there are a few companies that have released handsets with ubuntu touch
[00:50] <eikon81g> I read something about it.. they said it sold out in like an hour I think..
[00:50] <eikon81g> I'd check the forums to run it on a device you have already..
[00:51] <eikon81g> check the topic
[00:51] <ubuntu64bit> i saw on youtube and ubuntu sight and was reading that problems with slow and lag is something up with maybe bottleneck like in von neumann architecture
[00:52] <eikon81g> It looked promising.. I wanted to run it on a nexus I have laying around.. I haven't gotten around to it..
[00:52] <ubuntu64bit> agreed eikon81g:
[00:53] <ubuntu64bit> i wanted one US don't sell only european union
[00:53] <eikon81g> yea, porting it onto a device may be the way to go for now
[00:54] <eikon81g> not to mention if it is buggy then you are stuck with a device that only runs utouch
[00:55] <ubuntu64bit> not unless you have backup to port original OS
[00:55] <eikon81g> yea, I'm saying if you have a device that has native ubuntu touch you are stuck with it..
[00:56] <ubuntu64bit> oh yeah i see.
[00:56] <DonkeyHotei> porting to existing devices is strictly unsupported though
[00:56] <mariogrip> not really, you can flash android on the bq ubuntu phone
[00:56] <eikon81g> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
[00:56] <eikon81g> ah see there ya go, then it begs to question why buy it if you are going to just run android anyway..
[00:58] <mariogrip> i don't think ppl will do that, but you said "I'm saying if you have a device that has native ubuntu touch you are stuck with it.." but you're not stuck with it
[00:59] <eikon81g> right on, it's good to know that you could still flash it to android if you need/wanted to.. I was unaware
[00:59] <ubuntu64bit> sorry i got to go but i think the phone can be excellent is they get whatever causing the lag or bottleneck just saying
[01:00] <mariogrip> I'm running ubuntu touch on my oneplus one and it's not laggy at all...
[01:00] <mariogrip> he left... xP
[01:00] <eikon81g> lool
[01:00] <eikon81g> you tried..
[01:00] <mariogrip> yeah :P
[01:00] <eikon81g> does it have service on it?
[01:00] <eikon81g> the 4g decent?
[01:01] <mariogrip> It underdeveopment so cell is still missing
[01:01] <mariogrip> https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/wip-ubuntu-touch-for-oneplus-one.266170/
[01:01] <eikon81g> ahh, just wondering.. I think I'd miss the play store too much to run it
[01:01] <eikon81g> that's what's holding me back on the nexus
[01:02] <mariogrip> I use the bq as my primary phone, and I am only missing a google music
[01:03] <mariogrip> the bq ubuntu phone btw
[01:05] <mariogrip> also, it's a completely "new" OS so i expect some missing apps.
[01:09] <eikon81g> right. I have no doubt it will be competitive in the near future.. I will have to run it to get a feel for it.. Do you get a "Ubuntu Software Center" on the touch distribution?
[01:13] <mariogrip> no, there is an own app store for Touch that uses click packages (not deb as on desktop). but as I understand the desktop version will switch to click in a later release (next year i guess) (and probably run the same store). btw you can run apt-get on it, but it's not recommended since it a read only system.
[01:14] <mariogrip> try it with multirom then you don't need to replace/remove android :D

[01:27] <eikon81g> cool ty
[01:27] <mariogrip> np
[01:43]  * eikon81g is away: I'm busy
[03:49] <JMS_touch> Is there anyway to adjust Ubuntuinstaller.apk to enable Krillin dual boot? I appreciate dr0id is a little taboo, I really need wifi calling in the intereim in one location
[07:06] <muka> can someone tell me what 'rmnet_usb0' interface is for? to get it just type sudo ifconfig.

[14:20] <bqphone> good day
[14:22] <bqphone> is there a way to do a selected printscreen or capture on ubuntu phone?
[14:22] <bqphone> i know that with clicking +-volume button you take a printscreen
[14:22] <bqphone> but is there a way to select the part you want to take printscreen of?
[14:24] <tathhu> can you edit pics in gallery?
[14:26] <tathhu> yeah, go to gallery, select pic and then select that icon next to menu
[14:30] <bqphone> well that works also :) thanks tathhu
[18:08] <muka> I need some help. I'm trying to set some rules in my iptables to forward data from 'usb0' to <not sure>. what interface should I use for cellular data?
[18:12] <muka> is it p2p0? but it's not active. but I still get internet conn.
[18:44] <peat-psuwit> muka: type "ifconfig" to see which interface has ip address
[18:53] <muka> peat-psuwit, there is only two interfaces, wlan0 and rmnet_usb0, but the only option that I can see would be rmnet_usb0. I already tried that and it's not working. It seems that there must me another option. Must be hidden.
[18:54] <muka> looks that rmnet_usb0 is not a cellular data interface.
