sturmflutogra_: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/147324606:40
ubot5Launchpad bug 1473246 in modemmanager (Ubuntu) "MediaTek Preloader on a mobile device triggers cdc_acm kernel module usage by ModemManager" [Undecided,Confirmed]06:40
sturmflutogra_: that's just one of the USB problems regarding arale I am currently looking at06:41
sturmflutAnd I'm not convinced that arale simply has a "weak" USB chip06:45
ogra_sturmflut, it doesnt do any harm on the bq devices ...06:49
sturmflutogra_: Different device kernels (with different patches), different USB chips and different drivers.06:57
sturmflutI don't really see any actual low-level USB errors when e.g. MTP doesn't work, it's not like the device suddenly falls from the bus mid-communication. They talk to each other until the end, they just don't agree at some point and libusb can't claim the device's interface.07:24
ogra_i do07:25
ogra_(and i dont have modemmanager installed ...)07:25
sturmflutWhich low-level errors do you see?07:29
ogra_reset events for the USB ...07:29
sturmflutHmmm07:30
ogra_these are also seen under flyme afaik07:30
sturmflutAre you sure those aren't caused by libmtp? Because libmtp actually goes and tells the kernel to do a reset when libusb_claim_interface fails07:32
sturmflut"ignoring libusb_claim_interface() = -6PTP_ERROR_IO: failed to open session, trying again after resetting USB interface"07:32
ogra_yes, i'm sure ....07:32
ogra_they come from the kernel tellling me the peer is gone07:32
sturmflutSo we seem to have multiple error sources then.07:33

zubozroutHi, I just created an event on Android and once Ubuntu Calendar app synced it with Google account it shows me the event moved by two hour forward - I am in UTC+2. It should start at 9:30AM but it according to Ubuntu Calendar starts at 11:30AM.07:43
zubozroutdholbach reported a bug regarding this yesterday https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/1473068 ... but I not only see it wrong in the indicator but also in the app.07:43

sturmflut"And if yes, does it contain a panda"10:21

Sleep_Walkerhow can I install socat without corrupting anything?14:19
Sleep_Walkerwill I be doomed with `sudo apt-get install socat'?14:19
Sleep_Walkerwill my telephone explode?14:20
praxySleep_Walker: well you'd have to mount the / in read-write for the apt-get to work14:21
praxyit's unsupported officially14:22
praxyand with a system update you'd loose what you installed again14:22
praxys/loose/lose/14:22
praxyI wonder what the supported way is too.. chroot I think14:22
Sleep_Walkerso, I will only loose changes after system update14:25
Sleep_Walkerthat is not that bad14:25
Sleep_Walkerbtw. are the updates available through ubuntu repositories?14:25
praxySleep_Walker: the way you usually update phone is with an image14:26
praxyso the image overwrites your changes14:26
praxyif you update with apt-get, there will be updates there but it will overwritten later by the newer image..14:27
praxyat least that's what I understand of it14:27
Sleep_Walkerpraxy: that sounds correct, but does not answer the question :)14:28
praxyah maybe I misunderstood :D14:28
Sleep_Walkerit is about how the system image is generated14:29
praxythe image updates are not in apt, if that's your question. I don't know what kind of voodoo makes that happen on low level14:29
Sleep_Walkeris it built from packages?14:29
Sleep_WalkerOK, I should ask my phone, which files are not present in any package to have the answer :)14:29
Sleep_Walkerto have apt working I need to have correct package manager metadata14:30
Sleep_WalkerIf lets say bash is part of image, I need to have information that bash is installed in metadata as well (and metadata are files on system image again)14:31
Sleep_Walkerso it makes sense to have system image built from packages with possible something on top14:31
praxySleep_Walker: for making apt work, see this answer : https://askubuntu.com/questions/536333/ubuntu-touch-using-apt-get14:32
praxythough personally I just did  sudo mount -o remount,rw / via adb14:32

Sleep_WalkerI'm not on ubuntu so I have no phablet-tools available anyway14:34
abeatobfiller_, I took a look at bug #1471338, I did not see anything relevant in the traces15:43
ubot5bug 1471338 in telephony-service (Ubuntu) "sometimes phone never wakes up or rings on incoming call" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/147133815:43
abeatobfiller_, I added some instructions on how to obtain more trace15:44
abeato*s15:44
bfiller_abeato: ok thanks, I will try and get more tracing for you. seems like ofono not notifying upper layers and call eventually goes to voicemail15:44
abeatobfiller_, also, it is a behaviour I have never seen, I wonder if it happens only for some operators/countries15:45
bfiller_abeato: not sure, a bunch of people have reported it15:45
bfiller_abeato: it acts as if ofono thinks it's offline or doesn't have a connection/signal15:45
abeatobfiller_, difficult to say, let's see if more traces give more info15:46
ogra_pitti, you really dont want unity8-autopilot preinstalled until someone fixed the need to mangle evdev permissions and emulate a mouse16:00
ogra_mzanetti, why does my spread suddenly re-order all the time ?16:11
mzanettiogra_, huh? it does?16:11
ogra_(i mean, the animation looks nice and all, but whats the ourpose)16:11
ogra_*purpose16:11
mzanettierm...16:11
mzanettican you elaborate?16:12
ogra_yeah, windows change order live while the spread is open16:12
* ogra_ had that two times now 16:12
* ogra_ had the dash move two places up in the stack with an animation as if you pull out the card and stick it back in16:13
ogra_cant repro it now16:13
ogra_weird16:13
ogra_can that even be or am i hallucinating ?16:14
mzanettiogra_, I think I know what you mean... there's a bug when the dash moves across the screen in some certain circumstances16:20

guest1234567890Hi,19:12
guest1234567890I a problem19:12
popeyhello19:12
guest1234567890I am trying to install git on my devices19:13
guest1234567890and I obtain that:19:13
guest1234567890apt-get install -f git W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock19:13
guest1234567890but if I disable the read-write mode I lose OTA19:13
popeythe filesystem is read only by default19:13
popeyno, you don't19:13
popeyyou can still OTA19:13
popeybut you get full updates every time19:13
popeyand you lose your changes :)19:13
popey(also, we don't really support doing that because you could really break your device)19:14
popeybut it's your device, so if you want to break it, thats fine too! :D19:14
guest1234567890Ok, I want just install git and test a script on my device19:14
guest1234567890I don't care if I break my device :P I want want run my script ;)19:14
popey:)19:14
guest1234567890A fresh install is easy :)19:14
popeyindeed!19:14
popeyhave fun!19:14
guest1234567890So the only way to don't lose my chance is never update my devices after this?19:16
guest1234567890I need to install python-dev, python-pip, and git19:16
guest1234567890So after each update I will lose this stuff?19:17
guest1234567890"stuff" ;)19:17
=== dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk
guest1234567890or update my device via ubuntu-device-flash will not lose my change?19:20
guest1234567890done, read-write mode disabled19:24
guest1234567890now what?19:24
guest1234567890I am installing my script19:24
guest1234567890but I don't understand the upgrade part19:25
guest1234567890now I can update my device anymore?19:25
guest1234567890can't*19:25
davmor2guest1234567890: you can but any changes to the read only section will become read only image again so you lose python python-pip etc your script if you leave it in the home partition should be fine19:27
davmor2guest1234567890: every update no matter how you do it will overwrite the partition with the ubuntu part in and leave you with a fresh read only partition19:28
guest1234567890Oh ok19:28
guest1234567890(separe question: Canonical will "fix" this for the new BQ phone?)19:29
guest1234567890(separe question: 'cause meaning we can't install software on software-center on the phone-pc device)19:30
davmor2guest1234567890: the click software you install from the store remains on the device they are stored in their own writable part of the system away from the main ubuntu part19:32
guest1234567890davmor2: Ow, so we can override where apt install the software19:34
davmor2guest1234567890: the converged device doesn't use apt.  It will either use clicks or snaps, and they are segregated for security reasons from the main system.  This helps protect the end user as much as possible.19:35
guest1234567890Oh ok, so it will limit number of softwares no? non all software provide a click package...19:37
