MikaelaI would probably measure Ubuntu users with popcon.ubuntu.com while keeping in mind that it's optional and not everyone is part of it06:47
lotuspsychjeMikaela: someone should invent an i-use-ubuntu-app or package :p06:48
Mikaelathat would make it easier06:48
lotuspsychjethe blog has some nice facts06:49
lotuspsychjewe surely dont have an idea how many users installed touch on a nexus706:49
lotuspsychjecount1 from me :p06:49
Mikaelano logs on download timees?06:50
Mikaelawhy is this channel +F (anyone can (ban)forward here from other channels) by the way?06:50
lotuspsychjemorning k1l06:52
lotuspsychjeMikaela: maybe k1l  can answer that06:52
Mikaelathe question was are there no stats on how many times Ubuntu Touch has been downloaded for Nexus, I think?06:53
lotuspsychjeMikaela: not sure06:54
MikaelaI mean that they seemed to join after I asked it06:55
zee999is ubuntu root-fs (xenial-armhf.tar.gz) device independent?07:53
zee999Its confusing07:53
zee999some say its device dependent and some independent07:54
zee999 is it?07:54
cchrissHi all together ! I am just trying to build the nexus4 image, following the porting guide but the code i got from phablet-dev-bootstrap seems to be faulty. Can somebody please help me fixing this?08:04
cchrisserror: 'struct android::MediaRecorderBase' has no member named 'pause'08:04
cchrissubuntu/libhybris/compat/media/media_recorder_client.cpp: In member function 'virtual android::status_t android::MediaRecorderClient::pause()':08:05
zee999cchriss, pull the av_frameworks from Ubuntu-touchCAF from github08:13
zee999This issue has been resolved there. Or you can manually add pause in mediarecorderbase.h08:15
cchrisszee999, i did the second and it surprisingly worked. I expected more errors after this ;)08:16
zee999 great. its a very common bug in their source.08:17
cchrissI was also surprised about the size of the created "phablet" folder. The porting guide states it should be 15Gb. I got only 4.6Gb. And some links in the porting guide are also wrong, i think08:17
zee999 its pretty outdated now. are you using custom manifests also?08:18
zee999cchriss,08:18
cchrissNothing custom until now. I am just following the guide. I want to port it to the zuk z1. Sadly i have no experience with android and so on .... so i think my mission wont be a success. Lets see how far i can get ;)08:20
epsihi, does one could help me connecting my meizu ubuntu phone as a mtp or mass storage device on a windows PC ?10:58
epsithanks10:58
raph_aelepsi: as far as I know, only MTP is supported, and for my case, it was automatically detected, though on Linux11:29
epsiraph, i have ubuntu at home, even with ubuntu i was unable to get my photos and videos from the phone !!!!!!!!!!!11:31
epsinor mtp nor mass storage11:31
epsiwhat a pity11:31
raph_aelepsi: does your system sees something ?11:32
epsiyes a usb device but only with the device administration tool from windows11:33
epsiand the warning icon...also11:33
raph_aelnautilus should see the mtp device, otherwise you can try another usb port11:34
epsino on windows, i am at work now, but as far as i understand, files should be transferable at least also on windows, mtp is supported on windows i believe ?11:35
raph_aelit should be, though I haven't used Windows for years11:36
epsii don't think i am the only customers running both windows and ubuntu...11:37
epsii ma quite hungry, sorry but it's a mass just to get one file from the phone11:37
epsiinstalling MTP drivers failed, YESSS11:38
epsi"windows didn't find any driver for the device" good news11:39
raph_aelI don't like much mtp too, but didn't have much problems with it on ubuntu touch11:39
raph_aelepsi: seems a good start11:39
raph_aelwell "good"11:39
raph_ael:)11:39
epsido you now if possible to activate mass storage on the phone?11:40
raph_aelI don't think so, maybe someone else could reply better, and if it's possible, I'd be interested :)11:40
epsii did use the wifitransfer tool, but the tool does not allow acces to the media files directly, i have to open a browser on the phone and move the files one by one.....11:41
epsi:-)11:41
epsiDoes someone really use this phone11:42
raph_aelI do :)11:43
raph_aelbut my use is extremely basic11:43
epsieven basics functionalities are not functional (like getting the contacts from the sim card, i had to get my old phone write the contacts down a paper and puting back the sim to the meizu by hand copy the contacts)11:44
epsii m not speaking also of the numerous freeze of the phone11:44
epsiand also the lack of support....even here11:45
epsithanks raph anyway, you were the only one to answer.11:45
epsiby11:46
=== benonsoftware is now known as MerryChristmas
mhall119Elleo: the docs will be updated within 24 hours of the new docs package landing in the vivid archives or the overlay PPA14:39
=== BOHverkill_ is now known as BOHverkill
Elleomhall119: they landed in the overlay ppa on tuesday morning15:05
Elleomhall119: perhaps UDM isn't setup right for whatever automatic system does that?15:05
=== Trevinho is now known as Trevinho|HOL
=== Trevinho|HOL is now known as Trevinho|OFF
mhall119Elleo: it's setup like all the others15:34
mhall119Elleo: did libubuntu-download-manager-client-doc get updated with the new content?15:34
mhall119Elleo: 1.2+15.04.20151216.2-0ubuntu1 0 is what it's pulling from15:35
mhall119that's the most recent in the PPA15:37
Elleomhall119: yeah, just checked and that has the updated docs15:39
mhall119hmmm, well, I see the metadata-prop in there15:40
mhall119so yeah, something's causing the import not to happen15:40
Elleomhall119: that's been there for a while (just wasn't obeyed by transfer indicator)15:40
Elleomhall119: the DownloadManager page should have a bunch of new signals and import 1.2 instead of 0.115:40
Elleoand similar for SingleDownload15:40
Elleomhall119: there's no urgency though, doesn't really hurt if this waits until after the holidays, so don't trouble yourself with it now :)15:42
mhall119Elleo: I'll check on it,but if it needs webops to do something it's gonna wait :)15:43
Elleomhall119: okay, thanks :)15:48
mhall119Elleo: well, the importer works properly locally, so I suspect the cron job isn't being run, or is failing before it gets to your docs15:48
Elleomhall119: ah, okay15:52
mhall119Elleo: Ah ha! I see the problem15:53
mhall119it was actually pulling from wily's archive or the overlay PPA, and you have a higher version number in wily than in the PPA15:55
mhall119I'll fix it to use vivid's archives and the vivid overlay PPA only, when I come back to work on the 4th15:56
mhall119it's going to require a deployment update tothe site15:56
mhall119Elleo: https://developer.staging.ubuntu.com/api/apps/qml/sdk-15.04.1/Ubuntu.DownloadManager.SingleDownload/ is how it should look, right?16:00
* mhall119 notes that is in staging,not production yet16:00
