HickorySmokedBacIs this the "ubuntu phone" channel ?04:05
dufluHickorySmokedBac: Yes, as far as I know04:05
dufluAlthough I had heard it said this is the development channel (not for users)04:05
dufluNot sure04:05
HickorySmokedBacduflu: Have they began to roll out?04:05
HickorySmokedBacOh04:05
dufluLooks like it's for users04:06
HickorySmokedBacI'm wondering if they are going to start rolling out, cost , carriers, etc..04:06
HickorySmokedBacIf it can be put on Pageplus (Verizon reseller)04:07
HickorySmokedBacso forth04:07
dufluHickorySmokedBac: I'm not sure how international the rollout is yet. But there is:  http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/devices04:07
HickorySmokedBacWoah those are some high dollar phone04:08
HickorySmokedBacs04:08
HickorySmokedBacOK, never mind. eBay it is04:08
HickorySmokedBacyeah.. those are pretty speced out04:08
dufluHickorySmokedBac: We also support the Nexus4/5 with Ubuntu touch if you can find those04:08
dufluI find the Nexus4 to be unsually well performing with Ubuntu Touch. Despite being "old"04:09
HickorySmokedBacduflu: I imagine I'll just get a Moto G 3G first edition XT102804:10
HickorySmokedBacI aint spending more than $40 on a phone04:10
dufluHickorySmokedBac: Sure. Just FYI if you were particularly wanting Ubuntu Touch then a second-hand Nexus 4 or 5 is probably the best option04:11
HickorySmokedBacLess I become rich.. Then ya know, all taht extra stuff is good later.04:11
HickorySmokedBacThe storage is small and camera is 5 MP is my only problem with the XT102804:11

faenilmzanetti: hey, do we have any guideline on the number of pixels that a GU might be, across all devices?15:37
faenilis it just a hardcoded integer, or do we have any other rule like "it has to be multiple of X" or anything like thaT?15:37
ogra_we used to have a table in the old porting guide15:38
ogra_even a formula you could use15:38
faenilI'm trying to avoid having non-pixel-aligned assets in components, but without a rule it's pretty much impossible15:38
faenilogra_: ok, but there's no guarantee on the relationship between numbers that the formula will output, on different devices, right?15:39
ogra_i think there is15:40
mzanettiit's just an arbirary integer15:40
ogra_https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/porting-new-device/ ... see "Screen Pixel Ratio" (funnily under "Debugging")15:41
ogra_sadly the formula is gone from that doc15:41
faenilogra_: I don't see any relationship between the numbers, the formula depends on arbitrary factors15:41
faenil"It is primarily dependent on the pixel density of the device’s screen and the distance to the screen the user is at. That second value cannot be automatically detected and is based on heuristics"15:42
* ogra_ uses a ruler when porting to actually determine the right value :P15:42
faenillet's say I have a vertical line of 2dp, on my laptop that will be 2px, on Nexus7 that will be 2.5px, i.e. blurry15:43
faenilogra_: I don't think I'm explaining myself here :)15:43
faenil+properly15:43
faenilthere is no way to guarantee that line will always be at the same time sharp and properly positioned, afaict15:44
ogra_ah, no15:45
faenilyeah, I hoped we had something in place to avoid that. Ok ;)15:45
ogra_positioned is the master in that ...15:45
faenilI'm not sure, looking at how bad the scrollbar arrow icon looks on my monitor, I think I'd rather have a sharp pic which is slightly offset.15:46
faenilTo anyone who's following: I think a decent rule here is to make sure the asset/graphics/UIpiece is pixel aligned on the device that has the lowest pixel-per-GU value15:46
faenilmake it pixel-aligned on 8px/GU15:47
faenilthen if it will be not aligned on 12px+/GU, the blurriness will be less annoying15:47
ogra_i know we have two fixed GU values for phones ... to make sure the positioning is the same everywhere ... i.e. the bq 4.5 has 40gu width ... while a hi res phone like the mx4 has 50gu  .... the actual GRID_UNIT_PX variable is adjusted to these values15:47
faenilogra_: yeah I'm aware of that15:47
faenilit doesn't really help :)15:48
ogra_well, it was a mgmt request to do it this way15:49
faenilunless you can afford sticking to integer GU sizes, of course15:49
faenilsure, not saying it's right or wrong, just saying that the problem remains15:49
ogra_the 40/50 thing is mandatory15:49
faenilsure15:49
faenilmy "unless" sentence was related to UI components/assets sizing in apps15:50
faenilif you can, you should always have integer-GU sizes. When you can't (for instance when the asset is smaller than 1GU) then you're on your own :)15:50
mzanettifaenil, yeah, I remember on frieza the formula was: what gets us closest do 90gu on the short edge15:51
faenilthe best thing I can think of is what I said above, make sure it's pixel aligned on 8px/GU, as that's where not being pixel aligned creates the worst result15:51
mzanettifaenil, we can ship different assets per gu15:52
mzanettiwhich I guess is a bit broken15:52
mzanettiit works as promised, but we can't ship 40 versions of each icon15:52
faenilhehe, yeah, that may work for assets, won't work for lines/etc15:52
ogra_we can ... the desktop does :P15:53
mzanettihah15:53
mzanettifaenil, what "lines"?15:53
ogra_the blurred ones :)15:53
mzanettithere's at least 2 versions already15:53
faenilmzanetti: see the example above, say you draw a line in QML, make it units.dp(2). That will be pixel aligned on my laptop (hence sharp) and blurry on Nexus715:54
faenil2dp wide ^15:54
mzanettiI think units.dp has magic builtin to be pixel aligned15:54
faenilmzanetti: now you're talking15:54
* faenil checks the code15:54
mzanettiwhich is the whole point of it... otherwise you'd use units.gu(0.1)15:54
mzanettialso afaik unity.gu() will pixel align too provided you use something dividable by 0.515:55
mzanettiie. never use something like units.gu(0.7)15:56
mzanettibut 0.5, 1, 5.5 etc should be fine15:56
mzanettithat's what I've been told, I never digged into the actual meat of it myself15:56
faenilmzanetti: so there's no device with 21px/GU ?15:56
faeniland there will never be one?15:56
mzanettioh, I think there is15:56
faenil:D15:56
mzanettiI mean, in the code, never use "units.gu(.7)"15:57
faenilbut you said "0.5 should be fine"15:57
mzanettibut if you use straight numbers (of .5), then it should work, regardless of the pxpgu value15:57
faenilwhich is false, as that would be 10.5px15:57
faenilI don't see how that's different than 0.715:57
faenil(even if they're both rounded)15:57
mzanettiagain, that's what I've been told when I wrote my very first patch for unity8. I never really questioned it tbh15:58
faenilok15:58
mzanettifaenil, greyback or Kaleo shoudl know details15:59
faenilmzanetti: we still have the problem of shipping one asset per GU, fwiw15:59

faeniland m_devicePixelRatio is a float16:00
mzanettiyes16:00
mzanettihmm16:00
faenilso, nothing ensures dp is pixel-aligned16:00
greybackfaenil: units.gu always returns an integer. Using it for positioning should place things on the pixel boundary16:00
faenilgreyback: talking about non-integer-GU cases here16:01
faenil(such as thin lines, small assets, etc)16:01
greybackfaenil: m_devicePixelRatio *can* be a float, but it will never actually be (in Qt5.4)16:01
greybackyes the api says float, but we only stick ints in there16:01
=== chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
faenilgreyback: 1) it will be pretty soon, 2) dp still returns float16:01
faenilreturn qRound(value * ratio) / m_devicePixelRatio;16:02
faenileither I'm missing something or that can easily return a float number of px16:02
mzanettifaenil, on a device with GRID_UNIT_PX=21, units.gu(.5) returns 11 for me16:02
greybackfaenil: (1) I've found no evidence for. (2) yes, but if DPR is 2, then the effective result of that formula is qRound(value * ratio) / m_dPR * DPR = Round(value * ratio) \in \ZZ16:03
greybackerr latex crept in there, sorry16:03
faenilhaha16:03
faenilnw16:03
greybackfaenil: if dpr > 1, then whatever we return from dp/gu will be multiplied by DPR by Qt internally, to get the raw pixel value16:04
greybackhence the divide16:04
faenilgreyback: oh, right, then ok16:04
faenilgreyback: what does Qt apply that multiplication to? i.e. what's the criteria16:06
faenilis dp installed as "unit" or something?16:06
faenilor is it just because it's used as value for QtQuick sizes16:06
faenil(the latter, I guess)16:06
mzanettifaenil, I've sent a screenshot with a test app via teelgram16:07
faenilmzanetti: seen16:07
mzanettiunits.gu() does return only integers, regardless of what you feed it16:07
greybackfaenil: almost everything in QML is sized in device-independent pixels, which Qt will scale to physical pixels by multiplying by dpr16:08
faenilmzanetti: sure, dp does as well, I was just not considering that Qt will multiply that by DPR, that's why it works16:08
=== xiinotulp is now known as plutoniix
mzanettiwell, it would. but not on our platform atm16:08

greybackwith the help of the gods, perhaps I'll fix that16:09
faenilso, going back to the initial question16:09
faenildrawing geometry is ok because dp rounds the value16:10

mcphailjhodapp: got your email on https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1449790 - thanks! Unfortunately, I don't have a working Ubuntu device any more, so I can't give you the required information immediately. Can you reproduce the bug on your device, following the steps in comment #26?20:06
ubot5`Launchpad bug 1449790 in qtubuntu-media (Ubuntu RTM) "Fails to play a file with a # (hash symbol) in the path" [High,Fix released]20:06
aquaboy11Where is the /external/gpg repository?20:12
jhodappmcphail, I can yes and I do test that quite regularly, so that's why I'm curious what your filenames are that don't work that have a '#' char in them20:18
mcphailjhodapp: I've currently got android on my bq device, and I haven't added the same files to it yet. There was definite improvement in OTA10, in that the files would play. But they wouldn't play if selected by searching on the songs tab if another file was playing20:28
mcphailjhodapp: I'll try to dig out the filenames from my other computer20:28
popeymcphail: where is the #? Start / middle / end? In the folder or file name?20:28
popeyta20:28
jhodappmcphail, ok, then I'd file a different bug against music-app as it may possibly be a specific issue with the music-app UI code20:29
mcphailpopey: in the containing folder. Something like "CD #2" or something20:29
jhodappmcphail, but the more specific the filenames the better in this bug report20:29
mcphailjhodapp: Yes - sorry it is so vague. But I only kept OTA10 for a short time20:29
jhodappmcphail, not a problem, it just helps us more easily reproduce the issue which helps us fix it more quickly20:30
mcphailjhodapp: yes - I have already been shamed-faced to pat mcgowan about the poor quality of my bug report ;)20:31

mariogripdobey: i'll push the images this week, but I will do it a little different I will create two new images pre-stable and pre-rc-proposed the pre-* channels is where I push ubports changes before pushing to the main channels, this way we make sure we don't break devices :)21:28
mariogripit will be automatically pushed to the main channels after 3 days if I don't stop it21:29
Acou_Bassheey all, would anyone be able to recommend a slimport cable that they use that works with the nexus 4? ive tested 2 so far and theyve both been duds... took my phone to a shop to see if its the port thats duff and he advised me to try another cable -_- XD21:55
Espionage724Hi, I'm interested in trying out Ubuntu Touch on a Nexus 4 and I'm trying to figure out the best channel to use; the OTA update notes and some other source seem to mention that the bq-aquaris channel is usable on a N4?22:03
ogra_Espionage724, yes, it is22:05
Espionage724should I use the bq-aquaris channel over stable? I'm searching around and it looks like some people reported better GPS on that channel over the Ubuntu one; is there any differences between the two channels?22:07
Acou_BassEspionage724: ive not had any problems using normal stable on my n422:10
ogra_the bq channel has the AGPS backend included and a bunch of extra scopes the other images dont have22:11
Espionage724ah, alright22:12
Acou_Bassextra scopes? anything interesting?22:13
Espionage724does the rc-proposed channel recieve OTA updates?22:26
=== salem_ is now known as _salem
Acou_BassEspionage724: im fairly sure all channels get OTA - only thing that stops OTA is if you R/W the filesystem22:45
popeyAcou_Bass: going R/W doesn't stop OTA22:52
popeyEspionage724: rc-proposed gets OTA updates near-daily22:53
Acou_Bassi thought it did?22:53
popeysometimes multiple times a day22:53
popeynope22:54
Acou_Bassits pasted all over every guide for doing the R/W thing, DO NOT DO THIS ITLL BLOCK OTA UPDATES22:54
Acou_BassXD22:54
popeywhere?22:54
Espionage724the wiki page claims it does still https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/installing-ubuntu-for-devices/22:54
Acou_Bass^22:55
Espionage724well, delta OTA anyway (just re-read it)22:55
Acou_BassBy default the system is read-only. You can switch to read-write mode, although this disables Ubuntu system upgrades.22:56
popeywell that's wrong22:56
Acou_Basshmm fair enough22:56
* popey files a bug22:56
Acou_Basswas it true at one point and has since been fixed?22:56
mcphailEspionage724: I think the "phablet-config writable-image" touches a file in the root directory which disables OTAs. If you simply remount rw, that won't happen22:57

Acou_Bassso i could eg. apt-get install emacs-nox without having to bother with libertine?22:57
popeymcphail: again, no22:57
popeyit just makes it RW, it doesn't disable OTA22:57
popeyunless there's some magic file other than /userdata/.writable_image ?22:58
mcphailpopey: that's probably the one I was think of. That doesn't block OTAs?22:58
Acou_Bassso how are the OTA updates handled if it updates a file that youve manually edited? will it just get overwritten?22:58
popeyyou (may) lose your changes22:59
Acou_Bassi dont think i would use it to actually change things, just install things like emacs hehe22:59
popeyheh22:59
Espionage724does UT happen to support disk encryption?23:01
popeynot yet23:02
Acou_Bassi thought the official supported way for doing legacy apps was libertine/a chroot in your home dir though, thus getting rid of the need for an r/w root... seems like an awful lot of trouble togo through for something that doesnt really have any major downsides besides the applications not being apparmoured/snappy packages23:07
Acou_Basshmm yep, ubuntu touch gives me the same warning23:09
Acou_BassNB: your device won't be able to receive OTA updates. be careful!23:10
