blmvxerHello, I have a couple questions about mir and unity8 on x8601:11
duflublmvxer: Hi, yes?01:18
blmvxerI've been trying to force rotation on My baytrail tablet as it's stuck in portrait until I get the gyro drivers up.01:21
blmvxeris there a command line or config way of doing that?01:21
duflublmvxer: Yes, but the command line for it isn't introduced till Mir 0.26.0 :)01:29
duflublmvxer: If you have Mir 0.26 or later then run 'mirout -h' to see the commands01:30
blmvxerUgh dang it, well one last question. Maliit keyboard doesn't display either, is there a way to manually invoke that?01:31
duflublmvxer: Not sure about that one. Maybe try #ubuntu-unity01:31
blmvxerInstalling mir-utils aws and I'll check with them. I just recently got Ubuntu "hacked" on my baytrail and was hoping to mess around with Unity8 since there's an x compatibility layer and such01:33
blmvxerIt's apparently mir 0.2401:33
duflublmvxer: Yeah I maintain Xmir also. If you're running Mir 0.24 then it sounds like you're not up to date. I suggest Ubuntu 17.04 for the latest Unity8+Mir01:34
duflu(which is Mir 0.25)01:35
blmvxerThat probably won't allow me to force landscape mode though, right? That's the only issue other than maliit I'm facing01:35
duflublmvxer: Yes and no. Mir 0.26.0 will be released to Ubuntu 17.04 in the coming weeks, which will solve it. However earlier Ubuntu versions won't ever get the newer Mir01:38
blmvxerDang, I'm just not looking forward to building the kernel since I require so many patches and drivers to even boot on this tablet lol01:39
blmvxerThanks though for your help, I'll check with the other channel for help on Maliit01:40
dufluOk, no problem01:41

tjaaltonis mir in xenial older so that newer xmir can't be used there, and will stay like that?14:32
tjaaltonwondering what to do with lts-hwe14:32
tjaaltondrop xmir entirely from it and rely on the original one, or forward-port the old xmir patch to lts-hwe version..14:33
tjaaltonlooks like xenial is just missing mir_event_type_input_device_state14:35
alan_gtjaalton: AFAIK there's no current intent to update xenial with a new Mir14:40
tjaaltonalan_g: ok, that's fine14:40
tjaaltonlooks like I've fixed this build fail in the past too :)14:40
alan_gIt is remotely possible that the whole stack will be SRU'd at some point. (But not before 17.04 ships.)14:41
