JMDanyone tried an external monitor with ubuntu touch phone?09:19
mcphailJMD: I don't think that works with any of the retail phones09:19
JMDWill it be able to work with the new update OTA8?09:21
JMDI've got a Nexus 4 and got a cable recently and it worked, sort of09:22
JMDUbuntu touch appeared on half the external screen09:23
mcphailJMD: As I understand it, this is all still very much a work-in-progress09:24
JMD@ mcphail: sure just really excited to see how it's coming along!09:31
mcphailJMD: :). Some of the devs with Nexus 4s will probably be along in a while. Ask again then09:32
JMDI finish work in 30mins so probably won't be able to :(09:33
JMDFrom what I have seen it could be improved for OTA8?09:33
popeyyeah, just updated my nexus 4 and played with external monitor / mouse / keyboard09:34
popeyfun09:34
JMDooooo :)09:35
JMDI have a bluetooth mouse/keyboard but bluetooth has never pworked well under Ubuntu Touch with my Nexus 4, you?09:36
JMD@popey. Is that a preview of OTA8 or even further away?09:37
popeyif it's in rc-proposed then it will likely land in OTA-8 given that's the next one09:38
popey(unless it regresses horribly and gets removed)09:39
popeywhich is unlikely I think09:39
JMDcool, fingers crossed...09:39
popeyyeah!09:40
popeyshame the screenshots I took didn't work09:40
popeySaviq, is it known that screenshots don't work when connected to external monitor?09:40
JMDMine sort of worked now, but only showed up on half the external monitor...09:40
mcphailDo you need to attach a mouse to get it to rotate to fullscreen?09:42
JMDIt wa up the right way but was in portrait so only showed up on half my external screen09:42
JMDI found a SlimPort to HDMI cablewhich says it's compatible with Nexus 409:43
mcphailJMD: from the demos I've seen, attaching a mouse makes the phone switch to tablet/landscape mode and enables windows. Perhaps that would let the picture fill the screen?09:44
* mcphail doesn't own the hardware to test this09:45
JMD@mcphail: hmm, ok, thx, problem is my bluetooth has never been able to connect to anything since I put UT on it, any ideas?09:46
mcphailJMD: I'm waiting for bluetooth to be fixed, as well :(09:46
mcphailJMD: heard it might improve in OTA9...09:46
JMDah, goody09:47
mcphailJMD: I think bluez5 is in progress. I keep annoying the devs here to try to focus them on landing it by OTA9 ;p09:47
JMDyou keep on them ;)09:48
mcphailJMD: Yes, I suspect I'm as annoying as a gnat!09:49
JMDlol, it just feels so close but not quite there!09:49
JMDSo I'm guessing many ppl here put down for the Indiegogo Ubuntu phone?09:50
popeyhttp://imgur.com/nAFvEqD09:51
JMDAwesome, that's your phone popey?09:52
popeyya, nexus 409:52
popeywhich you can just about see bottom left09:52
JMDhmm too dark but exciting to see the screen :)09:53
JMDand that's the proposed channel which wil become OTA8?09:53
JMDAnd you might want to give it a charge, just sayin :)09:54
JMDRighto, thx for answers ppl, time for the pub!09:57
mcphailJMD: Slainte!09:59
JMD??09:59
JMDoh, thx and you too :)10:00

Elleoballoons: pong?14:06
balloonsElleo, hey, mhall119 tells me you might be working on a game at the moment, is that true?14:07
balloonsand is so, I'd like to ask if you would be willing to do a little session at UOS next week. A 'show and tell' session as we call it. Essentially, a little live demonstration of developing the game, while taking questions.14:08
Elleoballoons: I have a half finished game I started ages ago, haven't done much on it recently though14:08
balloonsThat sounds like a possibility. Something that is in-progress works well for this I think. Would you be interested in doing something like that?14:10
Elleoballoons: it's actually so old that I did a UOS session on it last year :P14:10
balloons:p Ok, so only 6 months ago if that helps14:10
balloonsor maybe it was a year ago, since I don't remember it14:11
balloonshah!14:11
Elleoyeah, I think it was more than one UOS ago14:11
balloonsElleo, anyways, if you've done it before, you kind of have the idea. I think it would be useful to encourage more developers to explore making a game, and I was keen to get someone with some experience to talk and share a project in progress with them14:12
Elleoballoons: yeah, 1 year ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0pJiDFqPZc :P14:12
balloonswould you use the same framework today?14:12
balloonsanything changed to make it easier? what options exist, etc14:13
Elleoballoons: actually since doing that video I rewrote it to use kenvandine's engine (bacon2d)14:13
balloonsahh nice14:14
Elleoballoons: but, yeah, I'll happily do a quick demo and q&a; what sort of length would it be?14:15
Elleoballoons: might even spur me to do a bit of work on it ;)14:15
dpmsil2100, if I understand it correctly, to get the latest convergence goodness on a Nexus 4 (i.e. silo 22) I can install from the rc-proposed/ubuntu channel, right? But is there another channel for the N4 that contains these changes _and_  the Nokia Here bits to get AGPS working?14:16
balloonsElleo, it'll be a 1 hour slot, but often the demo sessions are 10 - 20 mins. I would plan to do a little demo and talk through your development, maybe do a little quick hacking. That would be 10 mins or so. Then take questions from there. We may find it runs the whole session; we may not14:16
* dpm has lost track of N4 channels after having used the stable channel on his bq for quite a while14:16
sil2100dpm: hey! Yeah, so it's a bit more complicated right now14:17
sil2100dpm: the latest convergence unity8 bits landed in rc-proposed/ubuntu now, so if you want to have AGPS working we have a soon-to-be-migrated rc-proposed/bq-aquaris.en channel with mako images there14:17
sil2100dpm: but...14:17
balloonsElleo, the show and tell sessions are fun and lighthearted. casual and unscripted14:17
balloonsso don't feel the need to prepare slides or a big speech or anything :-) Just you, a camera, and a project :-)14:18
Elleoballoons: okay, cool14:18
sil2100dpm: the fully convergable images are currently in the ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu-pd channels - this is the channel that has images with libertine installed14:18
balloonsElleo, excellent. I'll create the session. Let me know if you have a time and day you prefer and I'll schedule it right now. Thanks for volunteering!14:19
sil2100dpm: the pocket-desktop images have a separate channel right now as we're pulling in additional stuff that we didn't want to have in stable images right now14:19
dpmsil2100, that's fine, I'm more about getting native apps to run on a desktop-like environment with a monitor. Or is there anything else that I'd be missig from the PD channel to get a demo going?14:19
Elleoballoons: most days/times are good with me; possibly best to avoid tuesdays as I'm usually out in the evening and have some extra meetings that afternoon, and have regular stand ups at 2pm UTC each day; so any time other than those is good14:20
iMiksuI’m planning to explore on doing app development for Ubuntu Touch, what phone you recommend to do it with? I would prefer something that is good for personal “production use”14:28
dobeyiMiksu: you don't need a phone to develop apps, but for "production" support, buy a production phone; bq e4.5 ubuntu, bq e5 ubuntu, meizu mx4 ubuntu14:29
nick4442oh boy, ubuntu browser got stuck maximized and the windows controls are missing14:31
popeyyeah, i get that on my device too14:31
nick4442do you guys know where does unity saves windows size?14:31
nick4442popey: and how do you reset the size? :D14:32
popeyi didnt14:32
nick4442popey: i think it's possible but i forgot how :(14:32
nick4442popey: have you tried xmir?14:33
dobeynick4442: unity doesn't store state of client windows14:34
dobeyi guess the browser app might save its own state?14:34
nick4442dobey: could be? the calculator app remembers the size and position14:35
nick4442so.. the apps store the size and position somewhere :))14:36

seb128jgdx, did you mean to change the hotspot panel in the same set?17:02
seb128if fact ignore that, from the description you did ;-)17:03
jgdxseb128, since this change requires s-i 3.0.2, yes, I meant to. The Info API is deprecated, replaced by Information.17:04
jgdx* deprecated in 3.0.2 that is17:04
seb128right17:04
seb128that's fine I guess17:04
seb128the other one is more a nitpick17:04
seb128but detailedVersionDetails doesn't really describe well what that contains17:05
seb128but if it's already in a silo I'm not going to make you change it ;-)17:06
seb128the s-i key is "version_detail" I would have named that versionDetail17:08

dobeywell, as you can see, there is discussion on there, and others are having the issue. it is being looked into19:45
Arska134Just curious why importance is medium, because problem is obviously very important19:50
dobeyi don't know, i didn't set the importance. but it also sounds like it could very well be a hardware problem.19:52
Arska134yeah thats why i am concerned if i have to send my phone back19:52
dobeyit also appears to not affect all mx4 users, only some.19:52
dobeywell have you contacted meizu support about the problem, or only the bug report?19:52
Arska134i contacted Meizu over 2 weeks ago but they are not answering19:53
dobeycall them on the phone?19:54
Arska134I think they don't have support in my native language19:54
dobeyi don't know if they do or not. but any hardware exchange/service you'll need to coordinate through their support system.19:55
Arska134someone at launchpad commented this:  "Said to be a "MTK pmic fuelguage issue", per talk with hw vendor."19:56

Arska134i have been fingers crossed everytime update were released :D19:58
dobeywell, monitor the bug report. when it gets marked fixed, then the fix should be in the following update from that point :)19:59
dobeyif it requires a device exchange, then i suspect such info will end up in that report as well, to direct people on where to contact to exchange the device.20:00
