robin-heroHey! Is the new Vivid based Ubuntu Toch also get updated langpacks by automatically?15:20
SturmFlutrobin-hero: Translations are part of the component they belong to. System components will get translation updates, new keyboard layouts etc. with OTA updates. Apps have to ship their own.15:23
robin-heroSturmFlut: Sorry, I think you misunderstanded me. I saw the new changelogs, but I can't find langpacks updates. Maybe it isn't setup to update automatically..15:25
SturmFlutrobin-hero: What is a langpack for you in this context?15:27
robin-heroI f I am right, the last langpacks updates are from 13th of May: http://people.canonical.com/~ogra/touch-image-stats/20150513.changes15:27

taiebotpopey: do not know how it happened just took my phone out of my pocket it was like this in landscape mode and could not type my password. I had to reboot16:45
popeyhow strange16:46
popeyProstheticS: i think the battery gauge is a bit flaky on mx416:46
ProstheticSso... its always gonna be like that,IE hardware fault, so no software fix?16:47
mr-ttpopey: the package i need is in the repo, but not built against qt5, so i would have to build myself.16:48
ProstheticSthe other problem, im told for phablet-tools to work i need to first get adb working (assuming this isnt only for ex-android devices) and no matter what usb i plug it into, its not showing in adb devices :( any tips, i have dev mode set to on16:48
popeytry a usb 1 hub or another cable?16:49
popeyit's very picky16:49
popeytaiebot: looks like a bug :)16:49
taiebotpopey: yeah i think so16:50
ProstheticSrighto, i'll keep trying other kit to get it going, ive tried a few cables, and basically every port on my laptop / hubs :( so the battery thing is a hardware thing then??16:51
popeyno, software16:52
popeyI think we have a few battery related issues lined up to fix16:52
mr-ttpopey: if it would be a "normal" chroot with a new rootfs i would just run make install, but when i enter the schroot it shows the main systems rootfs, how can i install it anyway?16:52
ProstheticSohhhhh , good :) i wouldnt want to have it like this permanently is all, im happy enough to reboot every day at the moment, or to even cron/script something to kick some services in the guts every few hours if thats possible,16:53
popeymr-tt: this thing needs porting to qt5?16:53

mr-ttwonder if it's hardware, software or config(batterystats) issue. but doesn't seem like anyone has the same issue17:19

TomLeethe selection shows to mne "Unity Scope (cmake)"20:10
DanChapmanTomLee: did you install the sdk from the ppa?20:12
TomLeeyeah20:12
ProstheticS anyone wanna give me more concrete, if i sudo remount writable my meizu mx4, make a couple of changes (import a ringtone or two, install a few terminal utilities, and then reboot to make it writable, will my updates be busted, from what ive been told next tiem i get an update i may have to remake my changes, i just dont wanna be stuck un-updateable20:13
TomLeeafter that step it gives me CMakeLists with kits, and nothing about it was given in the guide20:13
TomLeeFrom what I've read in the docs, after making it writable, you can't get updates. You'll have to reset(?) it, then get updates20:14
TomLeehttp://askubuntu.com/questions/600065/consequences-of-using-apt-get-in-ubuntu-touch20:16
DanChapmanTomLee well you will need the kit to compile the scope. There's a good blog post here about kits https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/blog/2015/03/18/everything-you-always-wanted-know-about-kits-were-afraid-ask/20:17
DanChapmanonce you have them setup then you should be fine and the tutorials should just work20:18
TomLeeThanks! This is what I've been missing!20:19
mr-ttTomLee: you can still get updates, but they might break something20:20
mr-ttsmall changes to rootfs should be ok, but using apt i wouldn't recommend20:21
mr-ttlet's say apt creates 5 new files. out of these 5 2 get overwritten by an update. so you have 3 files floating around the system doesn't know about, or worse, they might interfere with it. (if the update works this way, that is)20:23
ProstheticSalso, for whatever reason, ive tried every usb port, every cable, every usb hub, i cannot get my phone to be detected by adb, and hence cant make it writable using phablet-tools, is there any reason not to use sudo mount -o remounte ro rararara?20:25
mr-ttProstheticS: i used that, actually20:27
mr-ttsudo mount -o remount,rw /  then do your changges and then  sudo mount -o remount,ro /20:28
ProstheticSwinner, perhaps i'll install the utils i want manually and put them in my home directory, just update bashrc to have that in path, so i dont use apt, and just place my ringtones in root20:28
ProstheticSdunno, but either way, imma be opening it to writes at some point, and cant get adb :)20:28
mr-ttremember that you need to enable/use ssh to run binaries in /home20:29
ProstheticSalready have20:29
ProstheticS:)20:29
mr-ttand about the ringstones: is there no way to put them in home?20:29
mr-ttor some builtin way via gui?20:30
ProstheticSno idea, i havent found one20:30
ProstheticSbut i have found where on the rom the current ones live :D20:30
mr-tthttps://askubuntu.com/questions/372759/ringtones-in-ubuntu-touch20:31
mr-tthum ok looks like they have to be on /20:31
mr-ttlooks to me like it shouldn't interfere with updates, adding a ringtone20:33
ProstheticSif the updates are flat overwriting images, nothing really will , so long as you're still able to receive the update20:34
mr-ttProstheticS: i changed a file and the change was preserved through the update afaik20:36
ProstheticSeh, once i manage to get adbworking finally i'll be able to falsh a stock image should i screw anything up anyhow.20:42
mr-ttProstheticS: have you added the device id to the adb ini file already?20:44
ProstheticS?? can you link me to a tutorial20:45
mr-ttProstheticS: https://askubuntu.com/questions/632444/meizu-mx4-ubuntu-edition-not-mounting-as-usb-drive-and-not-available-to-adb20:46
mr-ttadd 0x2a45 to ~/.android/adb_usb.ini and restart/kill adb-server20:48
SturmFlutsergiusens: Ping20:58
tathhuBut höh, my jolla is working again :C21:04
tathhu-but21:04
ProstheticSwell that got me part of teh way, adb is now functional, phablet-config writable-image still doesnt work :p21:17
ProstheticSi'll do the sudo mount rara instead.21:17
ProstheticSi wanna install sshfs :( but that'll pull in heaps of changes i imagine21:18
ProstheticSlol21:18

tathhuunless someone wants to trade aquaris for jolla +tohkbd :P21:49
MatlibHello22:14
Matlibwanted to report a tiny bug22:14
Matlibdoing apt upgrade totally wrecks aquaris22:15
Matlib:)22:15
MatlibI'm reflashing it for the second time in 2 days right now22:15
Matlibthere's a success story as well as I managed to start sort of wifi hotspot on it22:16
studio_hi all22:21
studio_are there some news about convergence and thunderbird for the UT-Device?22:23
Matlibhey ho22:24
MatlibTB is being ported to the phone?22:25
mcphailstudio_: what news were you thinking of?22:26
studio_you can install it, but without xmir it is not working, that is my last stand for information ...22:27
studio_right?22:27
mcphailstudio_: Have you installed it?22:27
studio_yes, month ago ... but i am still on lollipop on my bq e4.5 since it is out. also sip is working now on the e4.522:29
tathhuAnyway, put my jolla for sale, going full yo.. ubuntu.22:29
mcphailstudio_: and how did you install it?22:29
studio_mkt-flash-tools22:29
mcphailstudio_: link?22:29
studio_from bq direct22:30
mcphailstudio_: thought you were talking about installing thunderbird?22:30
studio_waht do you need, for windows or linux?22:30
studio_ahh22:31
studio_i installed via apt-get install thunderbird22:31
studio_same as vlc an firefox22:31
mcphailstudio_: well, as you know, that wouldn't be expected to work, would it?22:32
studio_mcphail, i know, xmir is missing, therfore i asked for "news"22:32
mcphailrather odd to ask. Was there any hint of a thunderbird port?22:34
studio_mcphail, i am using Ubuntu and Debian, i do not like to "port" something, i am a user. an "one" problem i have is, that GPG or SMIME is not working under UT eMail22:37
studio_i fixed that under android with k922:38
studio_so, convergence means for me, that i can handle encrypted emails also under UT-Devices. therefore i asked for "news".22:42
studio_ok, seems to be, that it needs more time ...22:48
mcphaili would have thought so22:48
studio_btw. news, is the bq M5.5 the next ubuntu device from bq?22:49
mcphailWhat does the M5.5 have? is that the 4G one?22:53
studio_mcphail, it is hard to find "new" data about that phone, old data said it is the same cpu as the m5 is using, same is about the ROM 16/32 and the RAM 2/3GB. but i can't beleve, that the different is "only" 0.5 inches ...22:56
studio_hi john :)22:58
mcphailI suppose similar hardware must make it easier to port22:59
mcphailAnd if there are few bars for porting, it makes sense to diversify23:01
studio_mcphail, you are Michael Hall?23:01
mcphailstudio_: no23:01
studio_ok23:02
mcphailstudio_: type "/whois mcphail". I don't keep my identity secret :)23:02
mcphailstudio_: I have no connection to Ubuntu or Canonical. I just hang out here because I like the phone23:03
studio_this irc is funny, it also doesn't support PGP ant it is logged ... "lol"23:04
studio_mcphail, what "phone", handheld-pc are you using?23:07
=== BOHverkill___ is now known as BOHverkill
mcphailstudio_: bq 4.523:09
studio_did you tried lollipop on it?23:09
mcphailstudio_: no interest in doing that. My Samsung S3 is gathering dust23:10
studio_you have to try, just for comparing. UT is "in the moment" behind the time23:12
tathhuwhy are you comparion ut and android?23:12
mcphailDepends what you want from your phone. Android has never satisfied me23:12
studio_tathhu, i compare, what is possible on the bq e4.523:13
studio_tathhu, for exp. SIP. SIP is now working on the bq E4.5 as a native client. SIP is a must have phone-client on a "smart-phone", isn't it?23:17
colbyfttphey folks, you might be better placed to help me with mu issue23:18
colbyfttpon screen keyboard for ubuntu23:18
colbyfttpfor going all mobile and tablet they kind of let out the touch screen laptop23:19
studio_btw. "on screen" is the mouse curser now working under MIR?23:19
tathhustudio_: dont know,idont use :P23:19
* mcphail has never seen anyone use SIP on a mobile phone, but supposes someone uses it somewhere23:21
SturmFlutstudio_: I think you mean VoIP in general23:22
studio_mcphail, from what country are you?23:22
mcphailstudio_: UK23:22
JanCmcphail: some mobile providers use it in their own app for example...23:23
studio_mcphail, your phone connecting is an old analog connection?23:23
mcphailstudio_: do analog networks still exist?23:25
studio_for sure :) , therefore you didn't asked for a SIP-Support on the UT-Device ... ;)23:26
mcphailstudio_: there aren't any analog networks in the UK23:27
* mcphail wonders how you could use SIP on an analog network. Do they even support data?23:28
SturmFlutmcphail: You use a modem?23:28
SturmFlutLike, you know, back in my days23:29
studio_so, in the UK, all phone-connections are SIP-based?23:29
tathhucmon,but myjolla so can get a bq for real...23:29
mcphailSturmFlut: couldn't use a modem over the old analog network...23:30
SturmFlutmcphail: What? Why?23:30
mcphailSturmFlut: people really got that to work? Noise was awful on those devices23:33
studio_mcphail, SIP is also supporting analogue faxes and modems23:33
SturmFlutmcphail: How do you think we connected to the Internet before ISDN and xDSL were introduced? And how do you think ISDN and xDSL work? At the end it's the same copper cable all the time, and all the digital communication is modulated onto an "analogue" medium.23:35
colbyfttpyes, we can use old analogue communications in the uk23:36
colbyfttpif thats what we are talking about23:36
colbyfttpdial up modem, faxes all that quality stuff23:37
colbyfttpdial up modem, faxes all that quality stuff but Ofcom regulator wont allow it23:38
mcphailSturmFlut: The noise over copper is far less than the noise from the old analog phone networks23:38
mcphail*mobile23:38
colbyfttpsry that last sentance was way off, got a new laptop and the shift key has shrunk so keep hitting the up arrow23:39
studio_SturmFlut, did you made an research about the bq E5.5? will that be the next UT-Phone?23:39
studio_M5.5, sorry23:40
colbyfttpwhats the issue? I kind of jumped in randomly and from the UK and have E4.523:41
studio_e4.5 is nice, especially with lollipop, compared to the momently status from UT, on it, but the bq e4.5 is just a "toy".23:43
colbyfttpyea, I got it to get a feel for the whole touch experience.23:44
colbyfttpwaiting to see what developments to come,23:45
mcphailstudio_: and where is the line between "toy" and "tool"?23:46
studio_meizu missed the point with the mt6595 on an ubuntu phone. they castrated the mt6595 :(23:46
studio_mcphail, this is easy to explain. a tool is a phone, that cost 130 euro23:48
studio_same is a "toy"23:49
studio_i need a "workstation"23:50
studio_is "plodder" the right word?23:51
mcphailplodder - don't think that's what you mean23:51
mcphailstudio_: what phone (or phone operating system) meets your definition of a "workstation" and what differentiates that from the "toy"s?23:54
studio_in german you say "Arbeitstier", translation said "plodder",  slogger or working animal?23:54
mcphailstudio_: "workhorse" or "slogger" would be better. "Plodder" implies something passive or disinterested23:56
studio_mcphail, i am using some RPI, and i "compare" them to the "Ubuntu-Phone". So what can a RPI do an what can the "Ubuntu-Phone", yes, it is an Handheld-PC with an armv7, do?23:58
