| tgBot | <milkor73> Yesterday arrived to my email @mariogrip / Marius has fixed on N5 the on screen button, I can confirm it works perfect now, you have just to wait 1 second and the screen is ON, no more swiping or pushing 3x times the on/off button, thanks Marius, /I am on devel channel/ | 09:11 |
| tgBot | <linearubuntu> guys good morning. β¦ On aquaris e5, in windows mode, how i can resize windows? β¦ I can only put in full screen mode, but after that, i can't resize them. β¦ Someone can helps? β¦ Thanks for your work. | 09:29 |

| tgBot | <wagafo> @milkor73, I just installed 251 devel version and I still see this issue. Have you turned automatic brighness on? With automatic brightness on each two times I activate the screen with the button I see the issue again. I thought the fix was still not merged and that's why I haven't reported in the bug report yet. | 09:30 |
| tgBot | <milkor73> @Flohack, controling and helping | 09:30 |
| tgBot | <milkor73> @Flohack, moment, I will find the email | 09:31 |
| tgBot | <wagafo> @milkor73, I got the email too. In the bug report it says waiting for QA, so maybe the fix has not been merged yet | 09:32 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> @milkor73, No need I got it in my notifications as well | 09:32 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> @wagafo, No, it should be pushed into devel. Problem is our image building is not working properly these days | 09:35 |
| tgBot | <wagafo> @Flohack, I can definitely say I'm still seeing this issue in 251 devel version, I will report it in the bug report | 09:36 |
| tgBot | <milkor73> there it is, I have received today the update 250, and checking now has arrived new one: 251, but for me is already working well the on/off screen button, just a small delay | 09:42 |

| tgBot | <DanChapman> @alan_griffiths could probably confirm that | 14:04 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> @DanChapman, I know QT was used by the Unity8 developers but I have no special knowledge of what toolkits are supported by UBports. | 14:06 |
| tgBot | <DanChapman> but mir supports sdl2 though right? | 14:07 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> sdl2 has a Mir backend. Is that what you mean by "is supported"? | 14:09 |

| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> Don't wast your time on trying to use gtk-mir. It was mostly unusable until 17.04, not finished when that was released, and was abandoned after that. | 14:33 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, it is a dead end now? | 14:34 |
| tgBot | <sverzegnassi> (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc.ubports.com/bNZFP52O/file_2850.jpg QtWidgets works generally 'okay-ish' on Mir, but I haven't dug into it very much | 14:37 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> found it on github: β¦ https://github.com/GNOME/gtk/tree/master/gdk/mir | 14:38 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> @KrisJacewicz, Canonical are focussed on having Mir servers support Wayland, not on toolkits supporting the mirclient API. I've not heard of anyone picking up that work (and I would recommend against it - there are better places to invest effort). | 14:39 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> also found rhis old mailing list about that mentions not only gtk+ but even gtk3: β¦ https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/mir-devel/2013-August/000355.html | 14:39 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, when wayland support arrives, can one expect that a wayland port of gtk (if that happens) would work on wayland-supporting mir as well? | 14:41 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> afaik there is no gtk port for wayland as of now either. could be wrong. | 14:41 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> gnome uses gtk+ and mutter both of which support wayland (which is the default on Ubuntu 17.10) | 14:46 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> IME gnome apps require the Wayland "xdg-shell" extension. Mir doesn't currently support that extension. | 14:48 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> There should probably be a UBports forum post covering this area. (Toolkit support, Mir current state & evolution, UBports current state & evolution) | 14:51 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> thank you for this information | 14:59 |
| tgBot | <padraic7a> @alan_griffiths, +1 sounds sensible | 15:07 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> @PhoenixLandPirate, ππΌ but what folder? | 15:16 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @KrisJacewicz, It's why Mir is getting support for Wayland clients | 15:30 |
| tgBot | <theMitu> @shen feng, Oh! :) Does anyone know if it is halium based or build somehow differently? | 15:37 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, do you have any information if gtk port for wayland is worked on by anyone? | 15:56 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> gtk+ is all about wayland. wayland is a core part of the gnome-shell direction | 15:57 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, i understand just curious if this is already worked on by some team or to be expected to eventually be worked on. because i tried googling it and didn't find answer. | 16:01 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> for example on plasma mobile gtk is ran by xwayland still as of today | 16:01 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i mean gtk+ i have not tried gtk3 so i dont know | 16:01 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @bhushanshah perhaps would you know ? | 16:01 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> gtk2 is not getting improved no. you should be using gtk3 | 16:01 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> For plasma mobile we are not running GTK/3 in Wayland because it uses memfd_create syscall which is not available in ooooooold kernels | 16:02 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> and gtk1 definitely won't get any wayland support | 16:02 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> And I haven't bothered to backport it to 3.4 kernel yet | 16:02 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @bhushanshah, and gtk2 is not considered even yes? | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> Or 3.10 kernel | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> @KrisJacewicz, It doesn't support Wayland | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> (iirc) | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @bhushanshah, but xwayland will continue to run it? | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> yes | 16:03 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> xwayland will continue to be a necessary evil for some time | 16:04 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> well some good bit of information just happened here | 16:04 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @bhushanshah, also if you didn't bother means you will not consider that right? | 16:05 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ie, i don't think anyone at Valve is working on steam or steam games on wayland | 16:05 |
| tgBot | <bhushanshah> It's too much work | 16:05 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i also want to add an information from what i have tested on UT. I i stalled gtk3 and i know it was installed successfully because gtk3 app runs from UT over ssh with x forwarding. β¦ However it will not start in Xmir. So Xmir will only run gtk2. β¦ Anyone has an idea how come this is the case? Alan, would you know by chance? | 16:07 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> btw, Alan: i just noticed that I cannot use @ to mention you in my messages. | 16:08 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> gtk3 apps work under xmir | 16:08 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> It is not the case. | 16:09 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, i have tested on MX4 and two Nexus 5 phones and i report that it does not work | 16:09 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> at least, they work under xmir in my vm with unity8 | 16:09 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> please elaborate on what "does not work" means exactly | 16:10 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> first of all i can confirm that UT image does not include gtk3 it has to be installed with apt get | 16:10 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> seco dly after i install it it will only work over ssh with x forwarding but not via xmir | 16:10 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i emphasize that this is tested on the 3 phones i have | 16:11 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well sure it doesn't include gtk3 | 16:11 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> but if you install a gtk3 app in libertine, it should work fine | 16:11 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ie, gtk3 app works fine under xmir | 16:11 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, well i use desktop launcher exactly same as for gtk2 app but when i use it to start an app it closes down and the app does not show up on the phone screen | 16:12 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> but it does show up on desktop over ssh | 16:12 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @KrisJacewicz, how not? describe the failure mode. what does the log say for the app? "doesn't work" isn't helpful to give you an answer | 16:12 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> what is the Exec= line for the launcher? | 16:13 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, i have not tested with liberti e so I do not know really, but in case of the xmir without libertine it does not start i will try now again see if i can collect any error message | 16:13 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, the exec line is just the path to the executable nothing else | 16:13 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> then it's probably trying to use the mir backend. | 16:14 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> and that is probably failing | 16:14 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> check the log for the app in ~/.cache/upstart/ | 16:14 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, i will try to do this now | 16:15 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, if this is true should there be some environmental variable set for it to know not to do that? | 16:16 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> does the .desktop file have the mir flag set? | 16:16 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> yes two of them | 16:17 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> also the thing that gtk3 was not part of my ut image is the case | 16:19 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> even in order to run gtk3 app over ssh i had to first: β¦ $ sudo apt-get install libgrk-3-0 | 16:21 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i know that libgtk-3-0-dev is not expected to be included by default but i mean the actual grk3 not the dev was missing | 16:21 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> mx4 and nexus5 images | 16:22 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> you can guys check your own devices and maybe you also will find it missing | 16:22 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> so that also is a red flag | 16:23 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> *libgrk is just typo btw | 16:23 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @KrisJacewicz, yes, but gtk3 was not a supported target toolkit for the phone, and installing it brings in a lot of extra stuff. | 16:25 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> for running: libgtk-3-0 β¦ for dev: libgtk-3-dev β¦ i used these packages in my testing | 16:26 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> fltk is not installed either :) | 16:26 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, alright i actually understand this rationale but still it is a bit of a red flag to me. ie xmir is there since someone figured out it was still important to support gtk2. and gtk3 if it is supported in deed was not as important? Or is it that xmir originally was only meant to run gtk2 apps that Canonical used in convergence scenario like libreoffice and such? i am a little puzzled | 16:28 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> xmir is there for libertine | 16:28 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> but will try to get any error logs from trying to run gtk3 app in the phone screen via xmir | 16:28 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> the "convergence" story for running legacy apps like libreoffice/firefox was always libertine | 16:29 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> xmir is part of facilitating that | 16:29 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, the earliest i used UT and xmir I remember there was no libertine yet. i mean maybe there was libertine but i dont remember the website being there. like if libertine actually came later and it became a part of ut. | 16:30 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> xmir itself doesn't do the confinement stuff for runnign apps | 16:30 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> thats how i remwmber i dont actually know how it was | 16:30 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well, libertine without xmir was not useful, so initial xmir bits were developed first yes | 16:31 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> ok at this point i want to get any logs from the gtk scenario via xmir without libertine see if there is any hint | 16:31 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> @KrisJacewicz Xmir isn't specific to phone or toolkit. It works on desktops as well and with gtk3 applications. It is only an X11 server implemented as a Mir client. It doesn't matter if you're using gtk2, gtk3 or Qt "xcb" backend or X11 directly, it just translates X11 calls to Mir. | 16:32 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> i mean i was sat in hotel conference rooms next to the people building xmir and libertine | 16:32 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> so i think i have a pretty good idea of why stuff was being built :) | 16:32 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @dohbee, yeah i am not questioning this | 16:32 |
| tgBot | Hannes Lindner was added by: Hannes Lindner | 16:32 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, that is what i was thinking too, i thought xmir was bit like xfvb but with a visible window | 16:33 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> xmir is more like xnest | 16:33 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> ..or Xwayland | 16:34 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> it's just running an x server on top of mir | 16:34 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> sure | 16:34 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well, xwayland runs a single server for all x apps | 16:34 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> not sure if it likes it if you try to run multiple xwayland instances | 16:35 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> so i trust you guys about the gtk3 part it also all make sense when i read it, but i just couldnt start the app in xmir so i will want to colelct some debug info. i am leaning toward the proposed explanation that gtk3 was trying to use mir backend | 16:35 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, i really thought that xwayland is quite significantly different from xmir | 16:36 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> Xwayland is exactly as happy as Xmir about running multiple instances. The only issues are that it doesn't have an internal WM or a "-rootless" mode. | 16:36 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> for instance in plasma movile you do not need to use any special flags or anything in the command line when running grk2 app | 16:36 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> it will just know to run xwayland | 16:36 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> it seems very different feom xmir | 16:36 |
| tgBot | <wayneoutthere> @dohbee, x... waaaaaaaaaayland? | 16:37 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> That's the launcher detecting an attempt to connect to an X server. Nothing to do with Xwayland itself | 16:37 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> Xwaylaid | 16:37 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, even if you just use command line in terminal? | 16:38 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> or xwayland is just already running | 16:38 |
| tgBot | <wayneoutthere> @dohbee, xwayneoutthere | 16:38 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> I'm not sure of the mechanics, IIRC *something* listens to the socket and starts Xwayland on demand. | 16:39 |
| tgBot | <alan_griffiths> Xwayland just does one job. It doesn't magically launch itself, it doesn't do window management, etc. | 16:42 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i cannot test the error logs here with the phone i have, because i can find the gtk3 app on it that i tested with. i will be back from china on sunday and i hv it on my mx4 will collect debug info then | 16:42 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> also i was told that xwayland uses glamor, and xmir, if i understood properly (which idk if i had) on ARM is missing any form of accelerated graphics? | 16:44 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Glamor/ | 16:44 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> although xmir on desktop has accelerated graphics, is that correct? | 16:45 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> also here in China i cant fetch debs with apt get :( β¦ "temporary failure resolving ppa.launchpad.net" | 16:48 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> will not be able to do this before im back to Taiwan | 16:48 |

| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @alan_griffiths, something about window managing though, i noticed that xwayland apps on plasma dont start fullscreen but with a margin around (at least ones i tried). xmir is full screen. in staged mode that is. in windowed mode it is just a window. however app inside xmir will not automatically fill the client area unless u also start some window manager. xwayland app however, it seems, either does not work lile xmir in terms of its own windo | 16:54 |
| tgBot | it at least manahes main form to fill the client area which normally a window manager would be responsible of doing. | 16:54 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> @SergioSRM, at least i get telegram (not without a bit of hassle) | 16:57 |

| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> in comparison with xmir something very interesting is happening differently here | 17:01 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> especially since apparently xwayland does not do window management | 17:01 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> thw libre office definitwly gor resized to non default bounds, and see around the app you can see other apps under it | 17:02 |
| tgBot | <FreeInside_fr> Hello, is it normal that the camera and tagger does not ask permission to access the camera? And is it normal that in permissions the camera line remains grayed out? I have an oneplus one in RC | 17:46 |
| tgBot | <FreeInside_fr> (Photo, 1080x1920) https://irc.ubports.com/y0D0y8O0/file_2855.jpg | 17:46 |
| tgBot | <FreeInside_fr> I couldn't find an issues for that. | 17:56 |
| tgBot | <milkor73> @Hannes Lindner, Hello Hannes and welcome! I'm part of the UBports welcoming team. β¦ To help you get started, please take a look right away at our newcomers welcome page (https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome) and thanks again for joining us! :) | 18:02 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> @FreeInside_fr, no its not normal ^^ | 18:20 |
| tgBot | <FreeInside_fr> Okay, thank you, do I open an issues ? I've never done that before. | 18:28 |
| tgBot | <FreeInside_fr> Does anyone have the same problem ? | 18:30 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Can we try some more novel ideas for getting Audacity working in Libertine and have it run past initial boot up? | 18:39 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> since i've never tried to run audacity in libertine, i'm not sure what would not be working | 18:39 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Wondering if there's a nifty, not-by-default plugin like "vlc-sdl-plugin" (IIRC) which would help it or perhaps there's a qt version of it and we've unknowingly been trying to install the gtk variant? | 18:41 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> i'm installing it in a container now to see what happens | 18:44 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well, unity8 crashed | 18:47 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> so yeah, unity8 just crashes for me when i try to run audacity | 18:47 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> no idea what the issue is for you, but i definitely can't run it from libertine in my vm | 18:48 |
| tgBot | <samzn> libertine are having some issues | 18:48 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Can we presume it's a Unity 8 issue for UT devices too? | 18:49 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> i'm pretty sure the issue i'm seeing isn't "libertine is having some issues" | 18:49 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> more like mir/xmir or something | 18:49 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @Seumas, no idea, this is 16.04 mostly as unity8 was in april | 18:50 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> It's a shame as it's an audio editing app rather than anything to do with video or graphical gameplay. So you wouldn't *think* UT would choke on it. | 18:51 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I hope we can get it running soon enough. | 18:53 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well, what happens for you exactly? what does the log file for audacity in ~/.cache/upstart/ say about it? | 18:53 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I uninstalled it a while back, but will redo it tonight to check for you. | 18:56 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> In other news: | 19:28 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Did that pic show? But I got a 4GB/64GB Meizu Pro 5 from China to upgrade from my MX4 :) | 19:30 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> no pic here | 19:34 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> if my lovely Nexus 5 dies, what phone do you recommend? | 19:35 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> @Rawcode, fully compatible with ut, of course | 19:35 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> another nexus 5 :) | 19:36 |
| tgBot | <samzn> I've got 3 hammerheads :) | 19:38 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> on Sunday i will see how audacity behaves withour libertine | 19:40 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> i tried to get a hammerhead but the city won't let me build a tank that big | 19:40 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> @dohbee, lol | 19:41 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> nexus 5 is the best phone out there for me. i really love it, but isn't it necessary a phone with more ram for example? | 19:42 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> necessary for what exactly? | 19:42 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> i used a nexus 5 with ubuntu as a daily device for over 2 years | 19:43 |
| tgBot | <samzn> The N9 is still the best phone ever made hands down | 19:44 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> if i understand correctly, my nexus 5 for example keeps crashing because of unity demanding a lot of memory | 19:45 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @Rawcode, more ram doesn't fix memory leaks | 19:45 |
| tgBot | <Rawcode> @dohbee, understand, thanks :) | 19:46 |
| tgBot | <Lukas> @dohbee, πππ | 19:46 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> also, i have no idea why unity8 might be crashing on your phone all the time, if it is | 19:47 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Can't believe I have to ask this but any tips for prising open the SIM card slot on the Pro 5? | 19:47 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> does it not include a sim tool? | 19:47 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> It does, but this process always seems to be laborious. | 19:49 |
| tgBot | <SergioSRM> @samzn, N9? Nexus 9? π | 19:53 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> nokia n9 | 19:54 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> nexus 9 is a tablet | 19:54 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> @Seumas, You can open with the other phone. | 19:57 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I don't undertand? | 20:02 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> *understand | 20:04 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> Wait a minut. | 20:04 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc.ubports.com/0tKy77CT/file_2857.jpg | 20:04 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> (Photo, 1280x720) https://irc.ubports.com/poDqoc1U/file_2859.jpg | 20:05 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> if you try to open a sim slot with another phone, you'll just end up with two broken phones | 20:05 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Ok, I got it, it's just rather fiddly (again as with any phone). | 20:07 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Hope the process to move it from Flyme to Ubports isn't too strenuous. | 20:14 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> installed audacity on nexus 5 without container and also installed libatk-adaptor and libgali-common with it. β¦ starting audacity reboots the phone. β¦ I found this: https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/issues/165 β¦ i even removed phabled from group audio as per last suggestion but plenty of errors came up the alrhough GUI showed up. But it crashed eventually. didn't reboot the phone. | 20:15 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Just installed Audacity back to the M10. *In fairness*, it doesn't auto-crash. I can view the menus and what have you. | 20:18 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ok, wonder what is not working for you then | 20:19 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Went to import MP3 and at the end of the import dialog, it crashed. | 20:20 |
| tgBot | lastdon82 was added by: lastdon82 | 20:20 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> For the sake of argument, I'll test importing an .ogg. | 20:20 |
| tgBot | <KrisJacewicz> i ll sleep now if i learn anything new i ll share but the linked page points out to some possible issues if anyone cares to explore. | 20:21 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> @Seumas, What? You can copy to main storage or sdcard | 20:21 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> Copy-paste | 20:22 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I mean, import MP3 audio within Audacity so I can edit in it. | 20:22 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> Are you in Ubports version? | 20:22 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> You mean something different I think. | 20:22 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Yes. | 20:22 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @Jaume81, please read the context before posting. you're creating confusion with unrelated comments like this. | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Hmmm... a .ogg file seems to work. I see the sound wave peaks and everything. | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> cool | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> mp3 might be missing some extra package perhaps | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <Jaume81> @Seumas, Audacity with Libertine? I don't know if it's stable | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> inside the libertine | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> container | 20:23 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Yes. | 20:24 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Famous last words. Tried to play that file and it crashed, rebooting the tablet. | 20:24 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> Hi everyone | 20:25 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> How many of you have flashed and port their Ubuntu Meizu Pro5? | 20:25 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I will check out Kris's link. | 20:26 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> But first, let's look at the log like you suggested Rodney. | 20:26 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Nick, funny you should ask, I am going to do exactly that with my brand new 64GB MP5. | 20:26 |
| tgBot | <Stereofont> @lastdon82, Hello Nick and welcome! I'm part of the UBports welcoming team. β¦ To help you get started, please take a look right away at our newcomers welcome page (https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome) and thanks again for joining us! :) | 20:28 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Ok. Want to look at the log file, but the UT terminal doesn't let you scroll through it's ls printout (I don't think?). What would the file be called? | 20:29 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I tried to tab from "au" but nothing. | 20:30 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> it's a long name with *audacity* in the middle | 20:30 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> so try *aud<tab> | 20:30 |
| tgBot | <samzn> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/Hz20A1wM/file_2860 | 20:31 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> no pepe | 20:31 |
| tgBot | <samzn> Why not | 20:31 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Tried "find. -name *aud" but no dice, how come? | 20:37 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Stereofont, Thanks | 20:39 |
| tgBot | Janos Nagy was added by: Janos Nagy | 20:47 |
| tgBot | <delijati> is there a ubports overlay for 16.04 LTS that can be used on desktop? ... i have some problems with packages that are in the repo but not working ... aka https://github.com/ubuntu-libertine/libertine/issues/1#issuecomment-351498843 | 20:48 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> @dohbee ? | 20:53 |

| tgBot | <dohbee> @Seumas, yes? | 20:56 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> oh | 20:57 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> you need to escape the * if you use find | 20:57 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ie `find . -name "*aud*"` and also note that you need * on both sides | 20:57 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, How is it going? | 20:58 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Nick, gonna try it soon, wanted to charge the phone to 100% first. | 21:00 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Rodney, thanks. Log incoming. | 21:01 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Decided to print screen the first page instead of clogging up the supergroup with a massive textdump. | 21:05 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> (Photo, 1280x800) https://irc.ubports.com/DBDjkpSv/file_2862.jpg | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Let me know if you'd like me to scroll down and show more. | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well you could use pastebin | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ie https://paste.ubuntu.com | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Would you prefer that? | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> would be easier to read for sure | 21:06 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Ok be a couple mins. | 21:07 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, Kindly let me know how it goes. I am planning to going with the instructions on the UBports site | 21:29 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Rodney, http://paste.ubuntu.com/26179071/ | 21:31 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Nick, do you have 32GB or 64GB version? | 21:31 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, 32GB | 21:32 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Should have gone for the top-end :P but yes I will report on progress. | 21:33 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I went for 64GB to ensure I can basically install apps indefinetly, both clicks and Libertine stuff, and I have a 128GB card for documents etc. | 21:34 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> 16GB for everything on my MX4 was starting to cramp. | 21:34 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, I believe you got an andriod version because I don't recall the Ubuntu models having 64GB | 21:35 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, I do have a 128GB SD | 21:36 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> You're quite right, few people have moved the 64GB Android version to Ubuntu, but it's ideal for it. | 21:36 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @Seumas, Are you following the instructions on the UBports site for your PRO5 or using another option? | 21:38 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Going according to this: | 21:39 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> https://askubuntu.com/questions/800888/can-ubuntu-touch-be-installed-on-64gb-memory-version-of-meizu-pro-5?noredirect=1&lq=1 | 21:39 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> I would stick with UBports for you. My Android version's rootfs has to be resized first to accept a Ubuntu rootfs and installation. | 21:39 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> Ok | 21:41 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> Thanks...will try tonight | 21:41 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Part of me even wants to try a dualboot, because FlymeOS does run like a dream on it. But no, Google are too spyware oriented, have to shun them. | 21:42 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> I will try it with my BQ as well...i left them and started using blackberry but unfortunately they are now using android which is quite sad | 21:43 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> 4gb octacore, most anything will run smooth on it | 21:43 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> I want to get my Meizu going again and develop couple of apps again | 21:44 |
| tgBot | <lastdon82> @dohbee, Very true | 21:44 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> F yes. | 21:45 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Rodney, any thoughts on the log file? | 21:52 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> sorry i didn't see the link earlier, looking | 22:02 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> ok, not sure why exactly it crashed, but portaudio is failing to grab an alsa device (which makes sense as it's not exposed to the container) | 22:04 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> maybe there is a bug where it crashes if you try to play in that situation | 22:04 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Is it possible to expose the alsa devices to the container? | 22:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> well pulseaudio should work, and audacity should work with pulseaudio | 22:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> not sure why it isn't doing so though | 22:06 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> @Seumas, can you take a screenshot of the running audacity window? | 22:08 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> If any Libertine gurus would like to speak up, that'd be great :) | 22:08 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Yeah I'll screenshot soon. | 22:08 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> it would be easier for me to help if i could run it in my vm, but i digress | 22:09 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> @dohbee, I got the code in the push server. Unfortunately broadcasts are hardcoded now to "system" channel and can only be used for update notifications. We need to change this in the future maybe | 22:20 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> But despite it replies with OK no broadcast is sent | 22:20 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> thats strange | 22:20 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> no idea | 22:20 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> @dohbee, This is the idea: https://github.com/ubports/system-settings/blob/fe0f0a7e488f9ed97812c268d7fb341218a135f3/push-helper/software_updates_helper.py#L108 and following lines explain a bit. | 22:22 |
| tgBot | <dohbee> sure but your issue is sending the broadcast notification from the system-image server to the push server, right? | 22:24 |
| tgBot | <Flohack> well I suspect that the simple server we use now just eats up the notifications. I can craft them manually but need to know if the notification is acutally queued to the phones which it seems not to be the case | 22:25 |
| tgBot | <Stereofont> Patreon have backed down β¦ | 22:36 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Sorry, what are you saying about Patreon? | 22:37 |
| tgBot | <Stereofont> The fees increase has been halted | 22:38 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Ah, a UK goverment-style U-turn. | 22:40 |
| tgBot | <Stereofont> Not exactly. They apologised for getting it wrong π | 22:44 |
| tgBot | <Seumas> Hahaha right ;) | 22:47 |
