chris___hello03:56
chris___Anyone there?03:56
altker128I'm here, though I doubt I can be of much help03:57
chris___just installed Linux Mint 17.3 on a G170-HD3 Gigabyte Motherboard with MSI GTX 750 graphics card and i dont see any of the drivers in driver manager03:58
chris___thats alright, we can comiserate03:58
altker128chris___: Well, FYI, this is for Ubuntu-Touch, which is meant for mobile devices04:01
altker128That said, you're looking for the proprietary nvidia drivers?04:01
altker128You can download that from nvidia.com and install it04:01
altker128I've had OK luck with Nouveau, but I tend to get the proprietary driver from nVidia as everything "just works" using it04:02
chris___haha didnt know that, figured mint was ubuntu based it looked good haha. I believe that the driver for my wireless network adapter is also not there so its difficult to access the internet04:10
chris___nouveau is the name of a driver?04:11
chris___did my googles. inxi -Fxz says that nouveau driver FAILED04:13
altker128chris___: Check out nvidia.com and see if your video card is supported by their prorpietary driver.04:24
altker128chris___: Regarding your wireless driver, use 'lspci' and figure out what model network card you have and then search on activating that driver04:25

dbechHey guys, I just installed a stable version of ubuntu-touch on my meizu pro 5 and have made the file system writable. I want to change to rc-proposed via the terminal on my device. What command do I want?15:36
mimecarI think you must flash the rc image15:37
dbechorly? brutal15:37
mimecarsomeboy should confirm it15:37
mimecarsomebody15:37
popeydbech: system-image-cli can switch channels15:52
popey(on the device)15:52
mimecarpopey, can that command change from RC to stable?15:56
dbechI messed about with system-image-cli for a bit, the only channel it seemed to see was devel15:56
popeyyes16:01
popeysystem-image-cli --switch ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/meizu.en16:02
popeyprobably needs sudo16:02
altker128popey: Is there a way to get Touch to load some apps on start-up?  I'd like to have Phone, Contacts, SMS and Calendar pre-launched so there's no lag in switching between them16:50

altker128Before flashing Ubuntu-Touch onto a Nexus, is it beneficial to update it to latest Android, so the radio layer is up-to-date?21:04
atlaspaine1hello folks21:08
atlaspaine1has anyone tried touch on a motorola play?21:08
atlaspaine1I'm trying it now.21:08
altker128ahoneybun: Newer than which version?21:21
ahoneybun5.1.1 altker12821:40
ahoneybunbut I think it was it was never setup21:40
ahoneybunI used the factory images but never finished it then unlocked the bootloader21:41
ahoneybunanyone can download this? https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6zAAODZFwQ2Y1Y3NUtYZjk0cHM21:44
altker128ahoneybun: So, should I put 5.1.1 and then install Ubuntu-Touch?21:45
altker128ahoneybun: I'm on 4.4.4 right now21:45
ahoneybunit seems to work fine for me21:48
ahoneybunmy Nexus 7 was on 6.0.1 and it worked21:48
ahoneybunthe issue was I think the bootloader still being locked21:48
ahoneybunyou unlock it and then fully setup21:48
ahoneybunthen install Ubuntu21:49
ahoneybunif all else fails just have the factory image ready21:49
altker128Gotcha21:49
ahoneybun4.4.4 should work fine21:49
ahoneybunit's a complete reinstall21:49
ahoneybunanyone with a official device?21:53
ahoneybunlike BQ or Meizu?21:53
mariogripahoneybun: yeah21:59
mariogripbq 4.521:59
ahoneybunmariogrip: when you set it up does it talk about a Nearby scope or something?22:01
ahoneybunwhich is not installed by default22:02
mariogripahoneybun: no, not that i have seen, btw Nearby scope does not work in norway22:03
ahoneybunso it might be with the Nexus images then22:03
ahoneybunI've seen it on the N7 and N422:03
ahoneybunboth on OTA1122:03
altker128ahoneybun: I think the radio BLOB might be different between 4.4.4 and 5.x, so thought there might be a benefit to running latest.22:12
ahoneybunstill won't be using LTE either way22:13
dobeyahoneybun: yes, the welcome wizard mentions the today or nearby scope, though neither are installed by default in the non-retail images22:42
ahayzendobey, should there (or is there) a bug for that?22:45
dobeyi don't know22:45
dobeyfeel free to open one against unity8 (which is i think what owns the wizard)22:45
ahoneybunyea Avegers says it is22:48
ahoneybunwhy talk about it if it is not installed22:48
ahoneybunyea the Today scope is what it talks about22:48
ahoneybunmm seems I need to enable ssh22:51
ahoneybunyay got a Razer wallpaper now22:52
atlaspaine1how long have you folks used this os?22:53
atlaspaine1would you recommend it at this stage?22:53
ahoneybundobey: ahayzenhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8/+bug/159623522:55
ubot5Launchpad bug 1596235 in unity8 (Ubuntu) "[Welcome Wizard] talks about Today/Nearby scope but not installed" [Undecided,New]22:55

ahoneybunEmail, Telegram, GPS22:56
atlaspaine1how do i install it on my phone22:56
atlaspaine1It is a moto play22:57
ahoneybunthe Nexus 4 is the best in the USA right now22:57
ahoneybunMoto Play would need to be ported22:57
atlaspaine1Ported?22:57
atlaspaine1What does that mean?22:57
ahoneybunbuilt to run on that hardware22:57
atlaspaine1I see.22:57
atlaspaine1How would that be accomplished?22:58
ahoneybunhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting22:58
ahoneybunif your in Europe you can order the BQ or Meizu phones22:58
ahoneybunBQ: http://www.bq.com/gb/ubuntu.html22:58
atlaspaine1I think I'll order a Meizu any ways.22:58
ahoneybunthe Pro 5?22:59
atlaspaine1yes.22:59
ahoneybunvery nice phone22:59
atlaspaine1 I am from Canada.22:59
atlaspaine1There must be a way for it to get it here.22:59
ahoneybunmm not sure how well it will work22:59
atlaspaine1What do you mean?22:59
ahoneybunyou can order it for sure22:59
ahoneybunbut it might not have the bands you need22:59
ahoneybunit's designed for Europe23:00
atlaspaine1I checked the bands.23:00
atlaspaine1It works here with the majors.23:00
ahoneybunatlaspaine1: who do youhave23:00
ahoneybunoh Majors?23:00
atlaspaine1yes.23:00
atlaspaine1the major carriers.23:00
ahoneybunwho do you have?23:01
atlaspaine1bell23:01
anaranthe meizu website says "sold out" for the Pro 5 for weeks now when viewed from Germany with that country selected23:01
ahoneybunRogers?23:01
ahoneybunoh23:01
atlaspaine1rogers23:01
atlaspaine1and telus23:01
atlaspaine1and works with mobilicity23:01
atlaspaine1surprizingly23:01
anaran"out of stock" rather for http://www.joybuy.com/1104324.html23:02
atlaspaine1guess they're in demand D23:03
atlaspaine1XD23:03
anaranatlaspaine1: I doubt that. They only offer a rose gold model, which seems unlikely what ubuntu users would want to order, and they have a total of 59 reviews23:06
atlaspaine1then why would it be out of stock23:06
atlaspaine1that doesn't make sense23:06
anaranexactly23:06
ahoneybunlow amount of units?23:08
JanCmaybe nobody wanted the "rose gold" version, so that's why they tried to refurbish some with Ubuntu?  :P23:30
