[00:54] <LjL> r?
[02:38] <grasstype> woo! got chroot up and running! learning is awesome
[03:59] <jabawok> E5HD owners, i just designed this:
[03:59] <jabawok> http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1554849
[06:33] <mbuf> Is there an option in Ubuntu phones to turn of GSM?
[06:35] <mbuf> and what would be the latest phone model running Ubuntu that is recommended?
[06:41] <Smurphy> mbuf: yes. You can turn it off.
[06:42] <mbuf> Smurphy, Cool. Is there an alternative to "Google Authenticator" in the Ubuntu repository that I can use on the Ubuntu phone?
[06:47] <popey> mbuf: yes
[06:47] <popey> https://uappexplorer.com/app/com.ubuntu.developer.mzanetti.ubuntu-authenticator
[06:49] <mbuf> popey, nice, thanks!
[06:52] <zzarr> hello!
[06:57] <zzarr> will I be able to use miracast or any other Wi-Fi display technology on my MX4?
[06:58] <popey> not yet i don't think
[06:58] <mbuf> for the second question on the choice of Ubuntu phone device?
[06:58] <zzarr> ohh... I meant when OTA 11 is released
[06:58] <popey> I just ordered a Meizu pro 5, looking forward to getting that
[06:59] <popey> OTA11 froze this week, so within a few weeks
[06:59] <mbuf> is it actually possible to completely re-build the Ubuntu image from sources? or are there any binary firmware?
[06:59] <popey> once testing is done
[06:59] <popey> there's blobs
[06:59] <mbuf> popey, I see
[06:59] <popey> but that's all android driver stuff
[06:59] <popey> not our bits
[06:59] <mbuf> popey, okay
[06:59] <zzarr> is OTA 11 based on 16.04?
[07:00] <popey> no, OTA-11 is still 15.04 + Overlay PPA
[07:00] <popey> Testing still ongoing for 16.04
[07:02] <zzarr> okey
[07:03] <zzarr> will I be able to run X11 apps?
[07:05] <mbuf> popey, is there a lower-priced model compared to the Meizu pro 5?
[07:05] <andoru> hi, I want to try finding out why I get no sound output over HDMI from Nexus 7
[07:06] <popey> mbuf: the bq e4.5 / e5 are lower spec
[07:06] <popey> but they're quite a bit lower spec ㋛
[07:07] <zzarr> mbuf, I think the Meizu Pro 5 is the lower-priced highend phone
[07:07] <mbuf> popey, zzarr okay
[07:07] <popey> it's a very nice phone
[07:07] <popey> I had a play with one recently for the first time
[07:07] <popey> really feels high end in the hand
[07:08] <mbuf> popey, okay
[07:09] <mcphail> Don't dismiss the capabilities of the bq phones. When a few of the wrinkles in the OS are ironed out, they will run nicely. They do feel cheap, though
[07:10] <zzarr> popey, does it have USB C/USB 3.1?
[07:11] <popey> zzarr: it may have some of the USB C spec, but not all
[07:11] <popey> I don't have one yet
[07:12] <zzarr> popey, okey, what parts is it missing?
[07:12] <popey> dunno, i don't have one
[07:13] <zzarr> popey, I guess that it don't have the DP part
[08:33] <daniman> ubot5: dev
[08:41] <brunch875> ¡Good morning, ubunters!
[08:53] <lotuspsychje> !releasenotes
[09:02] <daniman> Is there any hope that i can run Viber on my ubuntu phone???
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> daniman: ive seen viber released for linux for sure, but not yet on ubuntu-touch yet i think
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> daniman: use telegram for now as alternative
[09:10] <daniman> lotuspsychje: telegram will be an option but how about an andriod emulator, i am sure ubuntu-touch has imported some andriod features
[09:10] <brunch875> I wonder if there's a way to make the music app delete tracks from the queue as they're played
[09:11] <brunch875> kind of how rythmbox behaves
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: add a new bug for your idea
[09:14] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: check the existing bug list in our topic first also
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> daniman: you cant run android apps on ubuntu-touch
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> daniman: but its possible to create a touch app yourself
[09:15] <lotuspsychje> daniman: or request one to the viber maintainer
[09:16] <lotuspsychje> the more people ask, the more change something gets ported
[09:18] <daniman> hmm
[09:27] <brunch875> lotuspsychje: Is there a place to discuss this before filing a bug? Maybe people prefer having the queue as it is right now... :s
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: a bug for a new idea is the proper way mate
[09:28] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: discussing it here is bit hard due to timezones
[09:29] <brunch875> Ah, I see :). So if I oppose to a suggestion I should make a comment in the filed bug, then?
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: just use the main bug window for your idea
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> ubuntu-bug yourpackage
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> then, musicplayer cant do this...because of....
[09:32] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: you can change the bug itself to a real bug or idea
[09:32] <brunch875> That's pretty handy! Thanks for the information.
[12:45] <mhinnes> hi
[12:46] <mhinnes> Will be possible to use chromecast with OTA11?
[12:55] <john-mcaleely> seems unlikely
[12:57] <mhinnes> john-mcaleely: Think I read somewhere OTA11 will enable miracast or something like that
[12:58] <john-mcaleely> yes. I think it will be for one device only to start with
[12:58] <john-mcaleely> I don't believe chromecast == the same as miracast
[12:58] <mhinnes> yes miracast is intel i think
[12:59] <john-mcaleely> miracast is a standard implemented by a number of dongles and tvs
[12:59] <john-mcaleely> chromecast, is, well, chrome
[12:59] <mhinnes> yes
[13:01] <mhinnes> so until chrome is not supported chromecast won't be?
[13:02] <colomar> pmcgowan, mhall119: It looks like the deadline for the call for papers for QtCon will be extended by one week, just fyi
[13:03] <pmcgowan> colomar, thanks
[13:03] <mhall119> thanks colomar
[16:14] <jonathan_ubuntu> Hello, is there a new bq phone planned with ubuntu ?
[16:19] <jonathan_ubuntu> y a des gens ici ?
[16:19] <seb128> jonathan_ubuntu, oui
[16:19] <seb128> but it's an english speaking channel
[16:20] <jonathan_ubuntu> my previous message was in english.
[16:20] <seb128> right, need to show patience on IRC
[16:20] <seb128> everybody is not spending their days staring to their IRC client waiting for questions to come
[16:20] <seb128> :-)
[16:20] <jonathan_ubuntu> a bad english perhaps ;)
[16:20] <seb128> no, just nobody around to reply
[16:21] <seb128> also it's probably not the channel to get press announces about new devices
[16:21] <seb128> so it's likely that nobody has an answer to your question here
[16:22] <jonathan_ubuntu> they should disconnect if so
[16:22] <seb128> that's not how IRC works
[16:23] <seb128> usually people get busy, head down in code or going for lunch, they eventually read the backlog/reply later on
[16:23] <seb128> but it might also be that your question doesn't have a known answer
[16:23] <jonathan_ubuntu> i try to collect info about ubuntu on phone but there s not a lot
[16:24] <jonathan_ubuntu> merci d'avoir répondu ;)
[16:24] <seb128> jonathan_ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/devices
[16:24] <seb128> jonathan_ubuntu, https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/ is also active/having useful content
[16:24] <seb128> jonathan_ubuntu, de rien!
[16:25] <seb128> pmcgowan, http://www.ubuntu.com/phone/devices ...the e4.5 links to a 404 page is that known?
[16:25] <seb128> that might be locale dependent
[16:26] <seb128> it sends me to https://store.bq.com/gl/smartphones/ubuntu-edition-e-4-5-fr/
[16:26] <pmcgowan> seb128, let me look
[16:26] <pmcgowan> seb128, ah they no longer sell it, we should update the page
[16:26] <seb128> right
[16:27] <pmcgowan> I can remove the link
[16:27] <pmcgowan> oh not there
[16:27] <seb128> or change the button like for the mx4
[16:27] <seb128> which has "sold out"
[16:27] <seb128> not clickable
[19:23] <wpgriggs> hey guys, I just installed ubuntu onto a surface pro 3, the touch cover trackpad is working but the keyboard isnt
[19:24] <wpgriggs> any ideas?
[19:31] <troyready> wpgriggs: weird; I'd expect the opposite problem
[19:32] <troyready> I haven't used Ubuntu Desktop on my SP3 since 15.04 but I seem to recall the keyboard working ootb. I'd think that'd be better now with 16.04
[19:33] <wpgriggs> troyready: Im using 14.04LTS, should I upgrade>
[19:34] <troyready> Ah. yeah. It's one of those things where you're going to be chasing the latest kernel for some time to come. I'm pretty sure there are still kernel patches that you'd want that aren't merged into mainline yet
[19:35] <troyready> Best place to research and ask questions is probably https://www.reddit.com/r/surfacelinux
