javier4Thanks to both of you, guys! I'm going to try my first port on a new device, and this one ships with an android 5.1 rom.14:56

oSoMoNmorphis, thanks for the report15:05
morphisoSoMoN: IMHO sth we should better fix before we release OTA1015:06
oSoMoNmorphis, yeah, but I’m on something more urgent for OTA10 already, will take a look asap but I can’t promise anything15:07
morphisoSoMoN: we could adjust the name of the source in Pulse but you would need to do a mapping for the language stuff anyway, so how do we take this best?15:07
oSoMoNmorphis, if you have suggestions, feel free to add them to the bug report15:07
morphisoSoMoN: are there any translations for this in place?15:18
ondrajabawok no prob15:25
ondrajabawok sorry, wrong nick15:25
oSoMoNmorphis, not that I know of, oxide is simply exposing the names of the sources as it gets them from pulse, and the browser simply displays that information15:33
morphisoSoMoN: ok, then we need some filter for the null input15:37

kenvandinemterry, mzanetti: did anyone ever figure out what was causing system-settings to hang with silo 41?16:42
mzanettikenvandine, still on it... but no, we haven't figured it yet16:44
kenvandine:(16:44
mzanettikenvandine, fwiw, it's unity8 that it's hanging, not the settings. the settings just happen to trigger it most often16:44
kenvandineis it a particular panel that hangs?16:44

mcphailpopey: add busybox and a simlink to your ~/bin directory? Think there is telnet in there...17:06
ogra_+117:07
popeywont that need me to ssh localhost?17:07
ogra_thats definitely a valid workaround17:07
mcphailpopey: don't know. Haven't _actually_ tried it ;)17:07
* popey tries17:07
popey~/bin isn't in the path17:09
ogra_it should after you createdit and rebooted17:10
mcphailyou sure...? I thought it was17:10
ogra_(there is a chack in bashrc (or was it profile)17:10
ogra_*check17:10
popeynope, not there17:10
popeymy ~/bin has existed for a long time17:11
ogra_it is actually in ~/.profile17:11

* mcphail realises the binary he has in ~/bin is also installed in /usr/local/bin17:12
mcphailpopey: stick it in /usr/local/bin. That is definitely in the default $PATH17:13

popeycp: cannot create regular file ‘/usr/local/bin/busybox’: Read-only file system17:14

ogra_mcphail, but requires a writable root17:14
ogra_is there a ~/.profile on the phone ?17:14
ogra_(you could just try adding one)17:15
dobeyshould be17:15
popeyi have one17:16
popeyit has the lines17:16
popeybut clearly isn't being used17:16
ogra_oh17:16
popeymaybe a terminal bug17:16
ogra_well, check via ssh17:16
ogra_if its not used there either then there is a systemic bug17:16
dobeylikely the terminal isn't creating a login session17:17
popeytelnet works when i phablet-shell17:17
popeybut not via terminal app17:17
mcphaildoes it run from terminal app if you type bin/telnet?17:18
dobeypopey: is the apparmor-easyprof fix landed yet?17:19

popeymcphail: no17:22

popeyat least it's known, thanks!  😃17:22
mcphailAh well, at least it looks as if it is going to be fixed soon :)17:23
dobeyif you copy the binary to /tmp or something though, should work, as a workaround :)17:23

mcphailOoh - a proprietary nvidia driver which supports Mir! Perhaps I can get back to trying to develop a Mir client now18:13
dobeymcphail: "a mir client" ?18:16
mcphaildobey: I had started trying to port the godot game engine for the phone, but gave up as developing for Mir was a massive pain18:17
mcphaildobey: It will help if I can hack it on my desktop18:18
dobeymcphail: oh, is it not using SDL?18:19
mcphailno18:19
dobeywell, if you have to link to libmir*, shipping an app on the phone is a giant pain anyway18:19
mcphailis it?18:19
dobeybecause it's not technically a stable part of the SDK; so every time the ABI breaks, you have to rebuild, and then you can only support phones running on the latest update18:20
mcphailMust be possible, because SDL2 links to it18:20
dobeyoh, sure, it's possible18:20
dobeyit's just a pain :)18:20
mcphailyes - found that with SDL2. Trying to get the right version for the right Mir is annoying18:20
* mcphail wishes the Mir devs would increment the major version number on API/ABI breaks18:21
dobeyeh, that wouldn't really help18:21
mcphaildobey: it would help my brain18:22
mcphaildobey: with some versions being compatible, and others not, it becomes hard to know when you have to rebuild18:23
dobeythere's also the fun gcc 4 vs gcc 5 issues too18:24
ozzzFortunately i resolved that problems18:42

mterrykenvandine: fyi the About and Reset buttons in System Settings don't have haptics19:00
kenvandinemterry, in the main view?19:04
mterrykenvandine: yeah19:04
kenvandinebecause the listitems, i don't remember the backstory on that19:04
mterrykenvandine: I suspect they are supposed to though.  Could use an AbstractButton or just call haptics.play() manually19:04
kenvandinemterry, i think it'll get fixed when we finish the slotsLayout work19:05
mterrykenvandine: most of the other listitems in USS do haptics19:05
kenvandinewe're about half done with the port to the new listitem19:05
mterrykenvandine: oh is there a redesign in the works?19:05

la_juyishey, anyone having problems with mtp on rc proposed?19:27
jibella_juyis, what kind of problem?19:32
jibella_juyis, like michi on the mailing list?19:32
la_juyisjibel, basically it seems to lose connection all the time. I was trying to see some pics, and I couldn't, so i figured I'd copy them to my computer but it's not woking either. i get to copy some and then  I got an error like it couldn't read the file in the phone19:33
la_juyisjibel, hihihihihi19:33
jibella_juyis, which device?19:33
la_juyisjibel, mx419:33
jibella_juyis, usb on mx4 is a bit flaky19:33
jibelwhen it works19:34
la_juyishm... so it might be a Mission:Impossible to get those pics out with the cable?19:34
jibella_juyis, try different cables, try from another machine. Personally my mx4 only works fine over usb when connected to a usb1 hub or an old eeepc19:35
la_juyislol19:36
la_juyisok :) thanks19:36

jibella_juyis, you can always transfer over ssh19:36
jibella_juyis, or by email ;)19:37
la_juyisjibel, yeah, not so much. I'm also having problem with a captive portal. for some reason the browser doesn't take me to the login page :/19:37
* la_juyis has to report that on LP19:37
jibella_juyis, there is likely a bug already. It's an issue since day 1 on this machine19:38
la_juyisI'll wait until i get a "freer" wifi19:38
la_juyisjibel, i know it works with *some* portals19:38
la_juyisbut not at my local airport, for example, or at this hotel. don't know which kind of info could help thou19:38
popeyla_juyis: open terminal, paste url from browser into it19:39
