[16:57] <sebsebseb> two months to go RIP !
[20:11] <fx-> what about installing ubuntu-touch on lenovo yoga 2 ?
[20:11] <fx-> last time i checkd it wasnt quite there yet
[20:11] <fx-> but that was quite some time ago
[20:11] <fx-> any hope yet ?
[20:14] <sebsebseb> fx-: uhmm its dead didn't you see the news?
[20:14] <fx-> no, wsp ?
[20:14] <sebsebseb> fx-: however ubports is forking ubuntu touch,  and yunit is doing unity 8 for desktop
[20:14] <sebsebseb> community works
[20:14] <sebsebseb> what's w sp ?
[20:15] <fx-> havemt heard the news
[20:15]  * sebsebseb hopes some of the people in this channel, will get invovled with the community forks !
[20:15] <sebsebseb> fx-: wow you must be so out of Linux news, it was all over the place this april
[20:16] <sebsebseb> Mark Shuttleworth decided to drop Ubuntu touch, and both versions of Unity
[20:16] <fx-> auch
[20:16] <sebsebseb> Ubuntu 17.10 wil use GNOME 3 shell by default
[20:16] <sebsebseb> and future veresions so ubuntu 18.04 etc
[20:16] <fx-> well, gnome looks interesting, but isnt for me tho
[20:16] <sebsebseb> fx-: however ther eare community developers who want to continue ubuntu touch that's one group, ub ports
[20:17] <sebsebseb> and then theres also another group who want to contine unity 8 for normal computers, yunit
[20:17] <sebsebseb> fx-: I do like GNOME 3 Shell, but it got a bit boring a few years back really since constant use, but I do like it
[20:17] <sebsebseb> just been playing around with extensions for it actusally
[20:17] <sebsebseb> that can improve it
[20:19] <fx-> im all about clean desktop and as few background abnormalities as possible
[20:19] <fx-> gnome seems to be bloated
[20:19] <fx-> just my opinion
[20:19] <sebsebseb> fx-:  you men not so much by default ?
[20:19] <sebsebseb> yep unity was good for enough tehre, but not that much
[20:19] <sebsebseb> nd not classic look
[20:20] <sebsebseb> fx-: gnome 3 is modern
[20:20] <sebsebseb> fx-: but also a bit old now, since it was started in like 2011
[20:21] <sebsebseb> but a modern interface yes
[20:21] <fx-> yeah.. looks interesting
[20:21] <sebsebseb> it is good to use
[20:21] <sebsebseb> but I like unity now a lot as well so hmm and that's both versions 7 and 8
[20:21] <sebsebseb> fx-: I have three ubuntu devices
[20:21] <sebsebseb> well my tablet is broken really now!
[20:22] <fx-> couldnt keep up with u ?
[20:22] <fx-> tablet, that is
[20:22] <fx-> ;)
[20:22] <sebsebseb> fx-: I have three Ubuntu devices, but my tablet went away for repair with osmeone I know, but now its more broken really !
[20:23] <sebsebseb> fx-: certain hardware components all joined together so,  not so simple to just replace the faulty part
[20:23] <sebsebseb> the cracked part
[20:23] <fx-> right
[20:23] <sebsebseb> in hind sight I may have not given to him like that, it was't major cracks
[20:24] <sebsebseb> fx-: but yes bq 4.5 ubuntu phone and mx 4, you see why I like unity 8 now
[20:24] <sebsebseb> the desktop previews were well just previewers but intersting to in the desktop.  and been using unith 7 more on computer last two years to
[20:25] <sebsebseb> fx-: anyway this stuff is open source, it will carry on under the community, but I don't think a fork of Ubuntu touch, will ever hit the main streame now or get anywehre close.  Canonical at leawst had a chance at gettung more hardware deals, or so people thought
[20:25] <fx-> hmom
[20:26] <fx-> i wonder why it all went under-the-carpet
[20:26] <fx-> seemed to be doing fine
[20:26] <sebsebseb> fx-: I think since wanst' making Canonical money
[20:26] <fx-> all phones sold out
[20:26] <sebsebseb> also there was a lot of work to come on Ubuntu touch yet
[20:26] <sebsebseb> changing everything from click packages to snappy
[20:26] <sebsebseb> changing the base from Ubuntu 15.04  to Ubuntu 16.04 that kind of wstuff
[20:27] <fx-> guugle drowned it
[20:27] <fx-> :D
[20:27] <sebsebseb> who ?
[20:28] <fx-> google and android didnt like the idea prolly
[20:29] <fx-> what if anyone could get open-phone/tablets and set it up for some kind of opensource os
[20:29] <fx-> doh
[20:29] <fx-> no more control
[20:29] <sebsebseb> fx-: well at least theres jollas salifish os still :)
[20:30] <fx-> wazdat ?
[20:30] <sebsebseb> from former Nokia developerws who wern't happy when Microsoft got therre Nokia deal a few years back
[20:30] <sebsebseb> fx-: so they carried on the meego projedcdt or osmething like that, but as there own os
[20:30] <sebsebseb> its quite a good one
[20:30] <sebsebseb> but I think most people who use it are from mainland Europe
[20:31] <sebsebseb> fx-: where you from?
[20:32] <fx-> northern europe
[20:32] <sebsebseb> fx-:  which country ?
[20:33] <fx-> what does it matter ?
[20:33] <sebsebseb> fx-: may be able to get some sort of jolla phone a bit eaiser
[20:33] <sebsebseb> depending on where you are :)
[20:34] <fx-> i want *nix on my phone
