diddledanargh. I'm getting angry reading this ubuntu-devel-discuss thread14:57
diddledan"It's not what I want. make it how I want it. I won't tell you what I want, just what I don't."14:58
diddledanthere's lots of bashing of current state but no actual constructive arguments for what to do about it14:59
ali1234i have a constructive argument for what to do about it14:59
diddledanseems to be a common theme from this xen guy14:59
ali1234fire the entire phone team and consolidate on desktop and server15:00
ali1234OR15:00
ali1234fire the desktop and server teams and concentrate on phone (but that would be suicide)15:00
ali1234perhaps an even easier solution would be to just make the phone team only use phones to do all their work15:02
ali1234no desktops, no servers. just convergence15:03
Gargoylediddledan, is that where general discussions take place for any ubuntu dev? I might want to have a read as I am seriously surprised at some stuff.15:13
diddledanGargoyle: not sure about everything, but some stuff gets discussed there15:14
BigRedS1ali1234: but then how do you flip-flop between priorities every couple of release?15:14
ali1234well you can still flip flop between desktop and server15:15
ali1234actually that could work pretty well15:15
ali1234LTS switches between desktop and server focus15:15
ali1234and they have five year support15:15
BigRedS1is that what they do, or something you suggest? We stopped using Ubuntu servers a few years ago (12.04?) when it looked like Canonical was all about phones and tablets15:18
ali1234something i suggest15:18
ali1234canonical is now all about phones and tablets and server and also the cloud15:18
ali1234also they still make a desktop operating system15:19
ali1234also IoT15:19
ali1234oh and also several different app ecosystems (click, snap, charm...)15:19
diddledanthing is I can understand the desire to be in these other markets. it allows canonical to get some positive cashflow.15:20
ali1234not if they never finish anything it doesn't15:20
ali1234i just tried on install ubuntu on nexus 7 which is a reference device and it doesn't even work15:27
ali1234the installer just exits and the device screen says "this device needs restoring from a PC or service center" on a purple ubuntu background15:28
BigRedS1yeah, if you're interested in any of those things, it looks like a thing Canonical's sort-of doing but not focussing on15:29
daftykinsdiddledan: heh what you just described is every day in #kodi15:43
daftykins"this software doesn't read my mind about how i want my media collection, a curse on ye all!" </standard user>15:44
arsendaftykins  you tried kodi on an amazon stick?17:24
daftykinsyeah, don't bother - full wired LAN model or not at all :)17:25
daftykinsactually about to fire up a Rick and Morty episode on mine right this moment \o/ i have the first gen FireTV model17:25
daftykinssad thing is Kodi lost its' android dev, so the platform is in jeopardy too17:25
davmor2ali1234: Nexus 7 isn't a reference device anymore so hasn't had testing for a while17:26
ali1234davmor2: the wiki says it is17:26
ali1234https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/devices/17:27
davmor2wiki says lots of things17:27
ali1234the funny thing is that in the end it turned out that the wiki was correct and all the advice people gave me was wrong17:28
davmor2ali1234: I'll pass the message on though17:28
daftykinswow an up to date wiki! that's... unheard of17:28
davmor2daftykins: :)17:28
ali1234the problem was just that i needed to format system, because u-d-f can't17:28
daftykinsso the question remains, if the wiki had the info - why did you need to talk to people?17:28
ali1234because the wiki doesn't mention that u-d-f doesn't know how to format unfortmatted partitions17:29
ali1234i had to figure that part out myself though17:29
daftykinsah well at least you can fix the wiki and make the world a better place now17:31
davmor2ali1234: the nexus7 didn't need partitioning you could just flash from bootstrap and wipe the drive maybe that is the issue17:31
ali1234davmor2: i never said anything about partitioning17:31
ali1234it is impossible to modify the partitions on a nexus 7 without reflashing the first stage bootloader17:31
ali1234the problem is that i did fastboot erase system instead of fastboot format system17:31
ali1234and u-d-f is not smart enough to format it for me in that case17:32
ali1234or perhaps the problem was userdata17:32
ali1234and daftykins it's not the community wiki, so only canonical can edit it... i guess it's not really even a wiki any more, it's developer.ubuntu.com17:35
ali1234or actually i might be wrong about that.. lets see17:36
davmor2ali1234: it not only canonical it is ubuntu memebers and canonical and it is locked down because it was getting spammed every two seconds17:36
ali1234davmor2: no, that's the community wiki you are talking about17:37
ali1234the instructions i followed are at https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/devices/installing-ubuntu-for-devices/17:37
ali1234the community wiki is now locked down too, so i can't edit that anymore17:38
davmor2ali1234: well that isn't a wiki that is a website that is controlled by popey and co iirc17:38
ali1234it used to be a wiki, albiet one that only canonical could edit17:38
daftykinswell that's sucky17:39
daftykinsi suppose it's not hugely worth resolving issues on such old devices17:39
davmor2ali1234: no it wasn't it's been wordpress and now django iirc but popey can confirm17:39
ali1234daftykins: there is no issue, it works fine as long as you format the partitions first17:40
ali1234it is expected that you just install it over android without wiping17:40
daftykinsah i was getting the idea of an inaccurate guide17:43
ali1234no the guide is accurate it just missed one crucial piece of information:17:43
ali1234ubuntu does not work like every android rom ever made. it requires the partitions to be formatted before you install it.17:43
ali1234and also it won't tell you what the problem is if they aren't17:44
daftykinsfunny, if i were changing ROM i'd format everything first17:44
ali1234i know right?17:44
ali1234well, formatting it is fine, erasing it is not17:45
ali1234but for example, flash-all.sh will just work no matter what state the device is it17:45
ali1234that's what the factory roms use17:45
popeyali1234: anyone can edit the wiki, it's not locked down, you just need to be in the right launchpad group - ~ubuntu-wiki-editors17:57
daftykins"diabetes pumps obey unencrypted radio commands" that seems like old news18:15

dogmatic69Just found some files that are chgrouped to 'guest-xutdxq'19:48
dogmatic69any idea?19:48
dogmatic69google has 0 results for 'guest-xutdxq' search19:49
ali1234did you log in to the guest account?19:49
daftykinswell the second portion definitely looks generated19:50
ali1234yeah19:50
daftykinsso a google result would be quite improbable ;D19:50
