Stanley00niklas___: I think you can install normal Desktop Ubuntu version and replace unity with unity8, but I'm not really sure09:04
lotuspsychjeStanley00: unity8 is being worked on for now mate, not ready until xenial release i think09:05
niklas___i have a fresh ubuntu installed there. but i don't mind wiping that09:06
niklas___lotuspsychje: is there an experimental version i could try?09:06
niklas___i only need this to work for ~2 days on a fair :)09:06
lotuspsychjeniklas___: yes unity8 is already useable, but little simple09:07
niklas___ok, thanks -- i'll give it a shot!09:07
lotuspsychjeniklas___: ive tested it on ubuntu desktop 16.04 development version09:07
Stanley00niklas___: you can try follow this url https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8Desktop , and also xenial has an daily image now09:07
lotuspsychjeniklas___: it looks like a simple ubuntu touch version right now09:07
robin-herohey all, quick question: I'm using rc-proposed channel on my Bq device now. If I make the FS writable and add an external PPA to it and install newer version of some packages from it. If I reflash my phone without wipe, it will be overwrite these new packages?09:12
mcphailyes09:13
robin-heroI want to test a silo, after that I want to go back to original rc-proposed, but without data loss09:13
robin-heroso it is possible?09:13
Stanley00robin-hero: it depends, if you flash from delta image, chance that it won't be wiped09:13
mcphailrobin-hero: from my experience, a reflash nukes everything under /etc, /usr (and /usr/local - which is a pain and a bug imho). OTAs/deltas don't wipe everything09:14
robin-herothanks mcphail :)09:15
mcphailrobin-hero: probably worth a backup anyway, just in case something goes wrong and you need to run a --bootstrap flash09:17
robin-heromcphail, yes, always do that in the first place :)09:20
robin-heromcphail, BTW, could I create a backup from the whole system? like on android?09:21
mcphailrobin-hero: don't think so. You could copy everything from $HOME, but I don't think there is a way to backup your apps09:26
Stanley00in theory, since the system partition is readonly, the userdata partition is where all the data go. So maybe just backup all in the userdata dataparition can do that, right?09:29
JamesTaitGood morning all; happy Thursday, and happy Hugging Day! 😃09:33
robin-heroOther topic: I've just done some application's startup speed test on rc-proposed (Bq A E4.5) and it looks far better than my previous measurement with an earlier OTA (maybe with OTA-6?)09:43
robin-heroDialer app: 3,84 s -> 2,6 s09:44
robin-heroMessaging app:  6,65 s -> 3,7 s09:44
robin-heroSystem Settings: 6,45 s -> 2,8 s09:44
robin-heroAnd If I know right the real improvment will be arrive with OTA-10 and mapplauncher09:45
mcphailStill too long, though09:45
robin-heroit also means minus 1.2 - 1.5 s09:46
robin-heroinstalled mapplauncherd, and I got the following values: Dialer App 2.6s -> 2.1s, Messaging App: 3.7s -> 3.2s, System Settings: 2.8 -> 2.2s10:00
robin-heroso it means about 0.5s with every app10:01
flux__robin-hero, nice! my sdl apps loads in 0.3 sec i wonder what will be the load time in the future :D10:07

tathhuäh, should bluetooth work on a nexus 7? (lte one)10:21
zzarrhello! will XMir be implemented in OTA-9?11:06
tathhualso, logitech k480 doesn't connect out of the box :( (on e5 as bt doesn't seem to work on nexus)11:28
zzarrtathhu, can you connect your K480 to another Ubuntu device?11:31
tathhuzzarr, something running touch/unity 8 or just ubuntu? laptop maybe in a few hours11:35
zzarrtathhu, just Ubuntu, Ubuntu uses bluez no matter if it's a phone or computer11:36
=== _salem is now known as salem_
robin-herotathhu, Ubuntu 15.10 and older releases and OTA 8.5 are using BlueZ 4, which is very outdated. Ubuntu 16.04 and OTA-9 will be arrive with BlueZ 5 with a lot of goodies :D11:51
tathhubrb changing to rc-proposed :P11:52
tathhubut seriouslh, should bt even work on nexus 7? :(11:53
tathhurip md11:53
tathhu...11:53
robin-heroI don't have a Nexus 7, so don't know, it works well on Nexus 411:56
tathhuähhh.11:56
andyworki have ubuntu touch running in the ubuntu-emulator - can I assign more cpu-cores somehow?13:25
k1lhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygBP7MtT3Ac  need more power? :)13:27
andyworkexactly ;)13:28
andyworkit's up and running but I am on a mid-range i5 m laptop13:29
andyworki can stream a 720p youtube clip simultaneously in the background, which suggest that there is a huge pile of power i could use for the emulator13:32
andyworkanyway, I have a nexus 4 being shipped for me at the moment, so i guess i could be patient for a while14:00
andyworknow lets hope the old man I purchased it from didn't scratch the display too much...14:01

mterrykenvandine, re: mouse schema -- did the design spec specifically allow middle mouse button as a primary button?15:23
mterrykenvandine, USC only supports setting left or right15:23
V99_hi!15:32
kenvandinemterry, no, but i wanted to include it in that enum just in case we ever wanted to15:38
kenvandinemterry, the UI doesn't allow it15:38
mterrykenvandine, yah but it being there means that u8 (as the intermediary) can't properly proxy the setting from gsettings to USC15:38
kenvandineoh, ok15:39
kenvandinei can remove it from the enum :)15:39
kenvandinei doubt we'll ever need it, but i was trying to be future proof15:39
mterrykenvandine, I also wonder...  What about the split greeter case?  What do we do on desktop in the greeter?  Just always use default settings?15:39
kenvandinei think so15:40
mterrykenvandine, because on the phone if we have a split greeter during the first login for an encrypted home...  I think the user would expect that the mouse would act the same as every other login15:40
kenvandinewe need these to be user specific15:40
mterrykenvandine, oh for sure15:40
mterrykenvandine, but I was wondering if storing in AccountsService made sense15:40
mterrykenvandine, but that mostly makes sense for the single-user-split-greeter case15:41
mterrykenvandine, in multi user...  not like you want the mouse to change settings as you change users15:41
kenvandineyeah15:41
mterrykenvandine, but still.  Storing in AS would let us fix the issue for that one case (where we can detect we are one user)15:42
mterrykenvandine, otherwise we'd have to just accept the bug15:42
mterrykenvandine, because we can't even hackily proxy the setting to the greeter, since the user's home is encrypted and unreadable15:42
mterrykenvandine, I guess it's not just input settings15:43
mterrykenvandine, auto dim settings and all those others15:43
kenvandineyeah, lots of things15:43
mterryvolume15:43
kenvandinei'm not opposed to AS15:43
mterrykenvandine, but at the same time, some of those are long-standing bugs that they act differently in greeter15:44
kenvandineif you'd rather do that, i can update my system-settings branch accordingly15:44
mterrykenvandine, I know there was a years-old bug that greeter volume should carry through into user15:44
mterrykenvandine, I dunno which makes more sense.  I guess there's no downsides to AS.  But mentally I'm very used to gsettings being where we put stuff like this15:45
flux__when 16.04 on phones? i'm sick and tired of 15.0415:55

shadeslayerogra_: ping15:58
shadeslayerogra_: we're trying to build a ubuntu touch rootfs for Plasma mobile here http://mobile.kci.pangea.pub:8080/job/img_phone_vivid_armhf/6/consoleFull with the config from here https://github.com/plasma-phone-packaging/live-config15:59

shadeslayerogra_: I just took the config options from ubuntu-touch from livecd-rootfs and added a few things ontop ( see customization )16:00
shadeslayerogra_: but the initramfs trigger still gets run, but doesn't run on the ubuntu touch builds16:00
shadeslayerwhat do you reckon we're missing?16:00
mardympt: hi! I wonder if you would be able to suggest a title for the dialog mentioned in bug 1468599?16:10

mardympt: or, do you mind if I reassign the bug to you?16:11
mptmardy, yes, please reassign to me16:19

Elleoam I right in thinking there's some file in /etc/ that can be tweaked to get the nexus 7 to use portrait as it's default orientation?17:47
shadeslayerogra_: yeah I modified the config a bit but its still not happy about the initramfs17:48
shadeslayerSo if you could advise, that'd be awesome17:48
