Kniplenothing popey, I just responded late to something.09:14

sil2100Elleo: do you know how to create the click package for gallery?09:29
SturmFlutHmpf, can't find the complete source code for MediaTeks Little Kernel09:56
Elleosil2100: not sure, its been a long time since I've done anything with gallery10:01
Elleosil2100: will take a quick look see if I can remember10:01
sil2100Elleo: since bfiller is on holidays today, we released a new deb for gallery and now need the new click uploaded - I could probably find someone that could upload it, but first I need the new click built from trunk10:01
sil2100Elleo: thanks :)10:01
Elleosil2100: I'm assuming from the click-build script that gallery isn't normally built as a fat package or anything? just armhf?10:09
=== chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
popeyElleo: it's certainly not a fat package in the store http://popey.mooo.com/mirror/clicks/2015/07/2015-07-03-050001/com.ubuntu.gallery_2.9.1.1183_armhf.click10:12
sil2100brb10:13
SturmFlutOh nice, if you keep all three buttons pressed on krillin/arale it will directly boot into Fastboot mode10:13
Elleopopey: okay, cool; that makes things simple then10:13
=== zyga_ is now known as zyga

jrbtSturmFlut, how long?10:22
SturmFlutjrbt: ~22 seconds10:24
* jrbt test with his nexus 410:24
jrbtoh.. ok, 22s is fast, my n4 take 14s longer (36')10:25
SturmFlutjrbt: krillin also takes around 38 seconds10:26
popey43 here for krillin10:26
jrbtholy cow!10:26
popeyElleo: did you _want_ a fat package for gallery?10:27
Elleopopey: not if that's not what's normally uploaded, sil just asked me to try and build a gallery click for him as bfiller's not around10:28
popeyok10:28
Elleosil2100: is it okay that I compiled against rc-proposed?10:43
Elleosil2100: if not I'll need to reflash a device to stable as the click build script seems to expect to build on device rather than crossbuild in a chroot10:43
Elleosil2100: here's the click from that: http://mikeasoft.com/~mike/com.ubuntu.gallery_2.9.1.1208_armhf.click10:45
Elleosil2100: do you need me to run  it through any test plan or anything?10:45
sil2100hm, I think it should be fine10:51
sil2100popey: to publish a click to the store, do you only need the new click package?10:54
sil2100Elleo: thanks! :)10:54
Elleosil2100: no problem :)10:55
ogra_SturmFlut, when i did the very first boot optimization work my limit was 1min max boot time ... there is surely still room for optimization to speed it up even more10:59
* ogra_ did only the low hanging fruit bits back then10:59
popeysil2100: yes :)10:59
ogra_(though not sure it is worth putting much time into upstart optimization given we'll switch to systemd at some point)11:00
popeyElleo: sil2100 are all devices now on vivid or wily? (just wondering if building against rc-proposed may cause problems on those devices that are not?11:02
sil2100popey: all devices are on vivid now, I mean... if you build against stable, you build against vivid11:03
sil2100So it should be fine11:03
popeyok11:03
sil2100Especially that the .deb package has been built against things from rc-proposed11:03
sil2100My knowledge about clicks is not high enough, but I suppose rc-proposed builds are fine?11:03
sil2100popey: hmmm, I did find an older click for gallery11:04
sil2100Without the automatic translation landing11:04
sil2100I think Bill always built a new one before pushing to the store after a landing, so I would prefer to use the one built by Elleo (if it's safe)11:05
Elleosil2100: actually, that click says it has framework 14.1011:05
Elleosil2100: so really it should probably be built against 14.10 to be safe11:06
Elleosil2100: or have its framework bumped up to 15.04 so it can't be installed on any devices that haven't upgraded11:06
sil2100I think let's leave 14.10 then... I don't want us to do anything that bfiller isn't aware of11:07
sil2100Elleo: can you build it somehow against 14.10?11:07
Elleois there any channel that still tracks 14.10?11:07
sil2100hmmm11:07
sil2100No11:07
ElleoI don't think I can then :/11:08
sil2100Elleo: could you check what framework version did http://people.canonical.com/~bfiller/com.ubuntu.gallery_2.9.1.1205_armhf.click have?11:08
sil2100This is  the one that bfiller generated for testing purposes11:08
popeyyou can build in a chroot, can you not?11:09
* popey is guessing :)11:09
Elleosil2100: ubuntu-sdk-14.1011:10
sil2100Yeah, so we'll have to stick with that, as that's what bfiller wanted to use probably11:10
sil2100hmmm11:10
Elleopopey: the click-build script in gallery doesn't do crossbuilding11:10
popeyoh11:11
Elleopopey, sil2100: of course it's entirely possible that script is out of date and there is a way to crossbuild it that I'm unaware of11:11
Elleosil2100: might be worth asking artmello when he gets on, I think he's worked on gallery a lot more recently than me11:11
sil2100I remember some jenkins job somewhere11:11
sil2100But hmmm11:12
=== chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun
sil2100Elleo: ok, we'll do so, for now let's hold11:12
sil2100If he doesn't know, we can always publish the click  that bfiller had for testing11:12
sil2100Although I would prefer not...11:12
popeysil2100: http://s-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/job/gallery-app-click/11:12
popeyhttp://s-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/job/gallery-app-click/263/ has r120511:13
popeydid you specifically want 1208?11:13
popey(for translations?)11:13
sil2100Yes, I checked how bfiller released previous clicks and he seems to rebuild after the deb release11:13
Elleosil2100: are you sure bfiller's actually off today? I can't remember him mentioning it but I forget plenty of stuff :P11:13
sil2100Elleo: it's an US holiday11:14
sil2100;)11:14
Elleoah, okay11:14
* popey presses the "build now" button so you get a r1280 armhf click if you need it11:14
popeysil2100: fwiw, the click in bfiller's home directory is binary identical to the one at http://s-jenkins.ubuntu-ci:8080/job/gallery-app-click/263/11:15
popeyso I would say he is providing you with the jenkins-made click11:16
popeyand as such those should be the ones you use.11:16
popeyIMHO11:16
sil2100popey: thanks :)11:18
sil2100Yeah, this was the jenkins job I remembered11:18

nocturnpraxy, yes.  Same result12:03
praxynocturn: I'm sure there are things you can try. But I'm not the expert here, I'm sure other people will have some suggestions12:05
praxyI suppose it's not an issue of it not being charged enough to start12:05

praxyI don't know if the MX getting hot is normal or not.. I have a BQ12:10
tathhupraxy: which one? hows battery life?12:12
praxytathhu: E5 HD. Battery life is pretty good, slightly worse than my Moto E I think, but not much.12:14
tathhuwhat that even means :P12:15
praxyI think I did 4 or 5 days before needing my last charge, light usage, daily alarm, maybe an hour of calls. Wifi/data off when not needed.12:15
nocturnpraxy, I just booted it with volume up + power to get into recovery mode12:16
nocturnit just gave an orange logo instead of a red one, that does not look good12:16
tathhupraxy: thanks, i'm sure my 5's battery life will be about same as i get on my jolla, heavy usage and lasts about aday12:17

seb128mpt, not really, there are like 3 system settings changeset being in line already for landing, it's going to take a bit12:24
seb128mpt, maybe ask to jgdx if he can batch that with some other of the pending changes12:24
mptjgdx, ^^^ ? :-)12:24
praxynocturn: I would try again power + volume up or power + volume down12:26
jgdxmpt, isn't that in a silo already?12:26
jgdxmpt, do you even silo12:26
jgdxmpt, In silo ubuntu/landing-022. Packages built. Testing pass. QA needs to sign off.12:27
nocturnpraxy, same result, it says recovery mode than orange logo12:27
jgdxit's not certain it will land though, we're at the mercy of the trainguards/product team12:28

mptjgdx, thanks for the info though. :-) Where could I look this up for myself next time?12:36
jgdxmpt, the spreadsheet is the source of information on this process and launchpad won't get notified before it lands. So the spreadsheet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/citrain12:36
jgdxmpt, time for a quick question?12:37
mptsure12:37
ogra_nocturn, try that https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg13878.html12:38
jgdxmpt, when load the phone screen in System Settings, it takes a couple of seconds to retrieve the call forwarding settings. Meaning this [1] will always say "Off" until we have one or more settings. That's bad.12:38
jgdx[1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhoneApp?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=phone-settings-call-forwarding-access.png12:38
jgdxs/when load/when we load12:38
jgdxwe can't really change that without substantial (relative) changes to the backend, but we can do a lot of things on the frontend.12:39
mptjgdx, “Therefore the current settings should be cached, and shown as a summary value for the “Call forwarding” item on the “Phone” screen — “All calls” for CFU on, “Some calls” for CFU off but any other type on, or “Off” for none — only if you have visited the “Call forwarding” screen since the last time the phone was turned on.”12:39
jgdxthat's the substantial bit12:40
mptWhat I meant by that was, if you haven’t visited the “Call forwarding” screen yet, that item should have no summary value at all.12:40
jgdxmpt, oh. So blank?12:40
mptRight. Sorry that wasn’t clear.12:41
jgdxmpt, okay, makes sense now.12:42
mptjgdx, specification updated. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhoneApp?action=diff&rev2=21&rev1=20> I hope it’s clearer now.12:47

alinogra_: was exactly the opposite15:27
ogra_the opposite of what ?15:27
alinogra_: shows up only on a powered usb 3.015:27
alinogra_: on a usb 2.0 does not show15:27
ogra_it wont transfer any useful data over 3.0 i fear15:27

SturmFlutjohn-mcaleely: I've finally got it. MTK uses a modified Android init in the initrd that knows how to check if the previous boot stages activated Factory mode.15:58
SturmFlutjohn-mcaleely: Which makes sense, because this Factory mode only exists on MTK SoCs15:59
john-mcaleelysounds fair16:00
SturmFlutjohn-mcaleely: It gets even better, they built the API into the kernel, the Boot mode is passed from Little Kernel to the actual Linux kernel and appears in /sys/class/BOOT/BOOT/boot/boot_mode16:01
SturmFlutand there are actually two factory modes, the normal one and another called "ATE_FACTORY_BOOT"16:02

popeynot sure if that's a bug or not, and where that should be filed. seb128 ^ got any good ideas?16:50
popeyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_and_time_notation_in_Hungary doesn't explain it :)16:50
robin-heroIt worked in the previous release16:51
popeyok, robin-hero perhaps file a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image and we can move it to the most appropriate place.16:54

mr-ttis it possible to run regular qt5 apps created with standard qtcreator(not utouch-sdk) on utouch?17:04
SturmFlutmr-tt: You will probably have to at least use the schroot to create an armhf binary17:09
mr-tt_SturmFlut: how do i create a utouch chroot on non-ubuntu? or would it be simpler to install a regular ubuntu chroot and run ubuntu sdk from there(can this crosscompile)?17:12
SturmFlutmr-tt_: Most likely the easiest way is to run Ubuntu 15.04 in a virtual machine.17:14
mr-tt_SturmFlut: arm ubuntu i guess?17:15
alinok... adb shell dies http://paste.opensuse.org/850185217:15
alinI still see the device listed17:15
mr-tt_SturmFlut: how big is an ubuntu arm chroot/vm?17:16
SturmFlutmr-tt_: The schroot for cross-compiling is 1.7 GB on my machine. A full Ubuntu 15.04 installation in a VM, with the Ubuntu SDK and enough space for your projects, will need several gigabytes.17:17
mr-tt_i'd rather have an schroot then. is it possible to create that on non-ubuntu?17:18
mr-tt_SturmFlut: do i use debootstrap to set it up? vivid has no arm repos, so how to do that?17:19
SturmFlutmr-tt_: you use the schroot utility directly, it comes from Debian. But I have never used it on non-Ubuntu, you will probably need all the configuration files.17:21
SturmFlutmr-tt_: Oh, and it just came to my mind that you will be needing the "click" utility too, that only comes with Ubuntu I think17:22
mr-tt_SturmFlut: i thought schroot is only for entering chroots, not downloading/setting them up17:22
popeyclick is used to set them up17:24
popeyusage: click chroot [-h] -a ARCHITECTURE [-f FRAMEWORK] [-s SERIES] [-n NAME] {create,destroy,upgrade,install,run,maint,begin-session,end-session,exists}17:24
popeye.g. sudo click chroot -a armhf -f ubuntu-sdk-15.04 -s vivid create17:25
popeythat kinda jazz17:25
mr-tt_can i run a precompiled qt5 app from ubuntu touch terminal?(just the files the app needs copied to the phone, not packaged)?17:29

tathhuBut yeah, awesome ^_^17:47
tathhuOh what i just did..17:47
mr-tt_if i have the source of a qt5 project(builds with qmake), how do i get that to build for armhf?17:59
mr-tt_i'd like to turn it into an utouch app17:59
mr-tt_or at least run it from terminal on the phone18:00
popeycreate a chroot on the phone itself, and build in that? thats what ogra_ does18:01
mr-tt_popey: takes too much space on the phone i think18:02
popeyreally>? what you building? KDE? :)18:03
mr-tt_plus i can't test in on the desktop then18:03
tathhupopey: can I run plasma 5 on my phone? :P18:03
popeywell, you're kinda asking the impossible18:03
mr-tt_popey: no just some small example app :)18:03
popeyif you build for desktop, its an i386/armhf binary18:03
popeyif you build for phone it's an armhf binary18:03
popeyi doubt a sample qt app requires too much space on the phone18:04
mr-tt_popey: so ubuntu sdk can build for armhf?18:04
popeyyes, in a schroot18:05
popeyi do it all the time18:05
mr-tt_popey: does the sdk automatically install an schroot?18:05
popeyit prompts you to when you start it up for the first time18:06
popeyi need to go and cut the grass, back in a bit18:06
tathhuSDK = qtcreator + ubuntu-spesific-plugins and stuff?18:06

SturmFlutmcphail: No, I'm a guy with a source code browser ;)18:15
mcphailSturmFlut: and a lot of patience...18:15
SturmFlutmcphail: It's the luxury of "being able to work on what you want". If I had to do it for a living, it would probably get bored really soon.18:16
SturmFluts/it would/I would/18:18
mcphailIt is great to get stuff like this documented. And especially good that it isn't on XDA with <blink> tags, 17 fonts and centre-justified text18:18
SturmFlutmcphail: My girlfriend works in marketing, she keeps giving me tips on how to monetize this ;)18:18
mcphailSturmFlut: to be fair, outside channels like this there may not be much of a market...18:19
SturmFlutmcphail: Yep. Exactly. And I hate ads on other sites, so I don't want any on mine.18:20
mcphailSturmFlut: I'm an adblock freeloader, I'm afraid18:20

SturmFlutmcphail: I don't even want that ;) Information wants to be free. I stand on the shoulders of giants, all the tools I use are free and 99% of the things I know were given to me for free.

EdwardMorbiushello, anyone knows what is signal 18? I have this in unity 8 log after a UI freeze, WARNING **: Unable to get pids for 'unity8-dash' to send signal 1820:05
EdwardMorbiusApplicationController::resumeApplication FAILED to resume appId= "unity8-dash".20:05
EdwardMorbiusAlso "Nested Mir Display Error: Failed to update EGL surface: EGL_BAD_DISPLAY (0x3008)"20:08
SturmFlutEdwardMorbius: Signal 18 is SIGCHLD20:09
SturmFlutEdwardMorbius: I think unity8-dash crashed and Unity8 can't find out who to tell about it20:10
SturmFlutmzanetti: ^^20:10
EdwardMorbiusSturmFlut probably, both of these errors were in the log, including this QML UCDeprecatedTheme: Theme.palette is deprecated. Use ThemeSettings instead.20:11
mzanettihmm...ignore the theme warning...20:11
mzanettithe other probably deserves a bug report20:12

ubot5Launchpad bug 1465826 in unity8 (Ubuntu) "The phone freez totally" [Undecided,Incomplete]20:12
EdwardMorbiusmy log and another user's logs are in there.20:12
EdwardMorbiusI also noticed different behavior when UI freezes after OTA-4, before last update when UI froze it would reboot itself soon after, but now after OTA-4 it freezes permanently and I need to power off the phone to resolve it.20:18
mzanettioh :(20:18
mzanettiso this always happens on application switching?20:19
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti from what I noticed usually on application switching, a few times it happened after a notification arrived and I tried opening it.20:19
mzanettimhm... ok. that helps. can you please add that to the bug20:20
mzanettiI assigned it further. hopefully should get some attention now20:20
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti I will add it now20:21
mzanettithanks a lot20:21
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti no problem, I added this information to the bug report, I can upload more logs if necessary next time it happens.20:24
mzanettiEdwardMorbius, what files do you have in /var/crash/ ?20:28
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti hold on I will check20:28
mzanettiprobably easiest if you pastebin "ls -l /var/crash/" somewhere20:29
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti I have three, all are usr_lib_arm_something_unity_scope_runner, two .uploaded and one .crash20:31
mzanettiEdwardMorbius, no _usr_bin_unity8.32011.crash or _usr_bin_unity8-dash.32011.crash around?20:31
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti no, maybe because the phone had to be powered off?20:32
mzanettihmm20:32
mzanettiwell, all you can do now is try catch such a file. maybe log in while it's frozen (if that's possible) or so20:33
mzanettiwe'll try to reproduce. do you have many applications open usually?20:33
SturmFlutOh, I was wrong, you can actually flash partitions larger than 4 GB with fastboot.20:33
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti I will try next time it happens, or when I power it on I will immediately check /var/crash. no I dont have many open, usually its a few, browser, telegram, sometimes messaging or music player.20:34
mzanettithe logs point to file manager often20:34
mzanetti:)20:35
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti I dont use file manager often and I am certain many of the UI freezes happened without file manager being open.20:36
EdwardMorbiusIt is possible I used it when that log was posted, dont remember that far back :D20:37
mzanettiok. no problem :)20:37
mzanettiif you happen to find a way to trigger it intentionally, let us know :)20:38
EdwardMorbiusmzanetti I will but so far it doesnt seem it is triggered by a specific action (application switching seems most common cause)20:38
EdwardMorbiusI will try catching that crash log in /var/crash/, where are mir logs located so I can take a look at them too?20:39
mzanettithat's all in unity8.log20:39
EdwardMorbiusI see, well I will hunt for it next time then when its fresh :)20:40

nocturnhttp://pastebin.com/kP9HpCG621:03
SturmFlutnocturn: That's because the production devices do not start ADB in their recovery21:04

nocturnSturmFlut, Trusty here21:25
boikoalin: you mean on desktop?21:25
boikoalin: on phones we use telepathy for phone calls and messaging, but we don't currently use/support any other IM protocols21:26
alinboiko: ok... on phone... I see kind of pitty21:29
boikoalin: although we have started changes things here and there to have more generic telepathy support, that's not fully done yet21:29
SturmFlutnocturn: If the phone never worked, I would assume that there's a hardware problem.21:30
boikoalin: you can tweak telephony-service into allowing other protocols by registering them at /usr/share/telephony-service/protocols/21:30
nocturnSturmFlut, I will try to RMA21:30
nocturnThanks21:30
boikoalin: and I used to have a experimental VOIP support changes for telephony-service and dialer-app, but they might be outdated by now21:31
boikoalin: at some point I think we will support more stuff (not sure if everything telepathy supports or a wider subset of what we support now though)21:32
alinboiko: that would be great... I am thinking more of google stuff21:37
