tgBot<gostranger> Happy New year02:08
tgBot<wayneoutthere> but no! @exar_kun and I are still enjoying the sweet pages of UBports history back here in 2017,...02:18
tgBot<TartanSpartan> That's how we Euros felt while the Aussies and Kiwis led the time travel adventures into the future!02:22
tgBot<Howard> Happy New Year you bunch of lovely lads and ladies!03:54

tgBot<wayneoutthere> I think we are the last time zone and we still have about 4 annoying hours left.  Ialways go to sleep by 10pm but UBports has made me excited enough that I might actually make it to the cliche midnight hour :)  I must say UBports must have impacted me...04:11
tgBot<wayneoutthere> Actually, to be honest, i'm spending the last few hours of this year on UBports right now.  I'm brainstorming....and putting the storm to paper..04:12
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> 1.75 hours left here04:12
tgBot<wayneoutthere> lucky.04:12
tgBot<dohbee> poor trees.04:13
tgBot<wayneoutthere> but no... @exar_kun just figured out that, even though they don't say it anywhere, that View Your Mind (mind mapping software) is availiable via sudo apt install vym  (of course it doesn't show up in the bloomin' software centre).  No trees died for this test04:15
tgBot<Javacookies> When we move to Qt5.9, apps and OS components must be updated/recompiled to take advantage of this right?04:42
tgBot<AresMinos> What was this about? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YGfwLqaVa0&t=1819s04:43
tgBot<Javacookies> just a noob poser developer here asking 😝04:43
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @AresMinos, Someone tweeted Lunduke to say we were mad at hom04:44
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> ... That's about it.04:44
tgBot<AresMinos> oh, but he still dissed the whole project unfortunately. Here is the right link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YGfwLqaVa0&t=3708s04:46
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yeah04:46
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯04:46
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> It happens04:46
tgBot<AresMinos> oh well, I like Lunduke but he lives outside of a normal users perspective04:48
tgBot<AresMinos> on second thought, outside of any users perspective, a retro one maybe :O04:48
tgBot<bhushanshah> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯04:52
tgBot<bhushanshah> Tldr.. let's ignore whole thing04:53
tgBot<peternerlich> IT'S OVER!! At least here in Germany. It's finally quieted up and our dog worked up the courage to display strong intent to finally go and release the pheromone filled waste products of his body at trees...05:24
tgBot<peternerlich> woow, no one reading this for five minutes huh? Only happening once a year...05:30
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> 30 minutes05:32

tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Heyyyyyy!05:43
tgBot<bneo99> heyyyy05:44
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> What's up?05:45
tgBot<bneo99> nothing haha... opened my telegram in ages and found out that you guys switched to a supergroup so thought i might as well join05:45
tgBot<bneo99> :)05:45
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Well... Welcome! (Again)05:46
tgBot<peternerlich> Oh, a lot more changed since that...05:46
tgBot<bneo99> Is the old group still being used? As in for asking questions regarding porting and stuff05:47
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Well, it's certainly there05:47
tgBot<peternerlich> You'r not new, but still, check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome, since so much changed05:50
tgBot<bneo99> okay, thanks!05:51
tgBot<peternerlich> e.g. make sure you are subscribed to the news channel, check out if any of the language groups appeal to you...05:51
tgBot<peternerlich> @peternerlich, there seems to be a bug regarding this indicator @Flohack05:53
tgBot<peternerlich> (Photo, 540x574) https://irc.ubports.com/rNAOq5D6/file_3439.jpg05:54
tgBot<bneo99> Im kinda lost since last time when i was porting we have yet to have halium. Currently to get Ubports should I just try to port halium then use the ubports rootfs or is there still a way to port ubports like how it was on the early stages05:58
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Hap-hap-happy new year!06:05
tgBot<Lyokanthrope> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/AOyGkniw/file_344006:05
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @bneo99, I guess you could use the 'old way', but Halium shouldn't be too far removed from a 5.1 tree06:06
tgBot<bneo99> I'm currently trying to use the Halium method as the device im trying to port (Nvidia Shieldtablet) has stable android 7.1.2 . But based on my previous experience on using both methods I can never get the device to boot the boot.img that I compiled06:07
tgBot<wayneoutthere> @AresMinos, he called the project 'terribly uninteresting'.  That's funny because that's EXACTLY how I described his show to a few people just before he released that comment.  This guy is a class A _ (insert your favourite adjective) and what's most important is that we need to stop valuing guys like this and OMG Ubuntu as legitimate media sources.  Because they aren't.  They are just a stream of opinion like any other blogger with a keyboard06:12
tgBotmicrophone.   … But... The Ubuntu Touch Audiocast is the *authorized voice* of All Things Ubuntu (and Ubuntu Touch) starting ...well... right now.  I just authorized myself.06:12
tgBot<wayneoutthere> can I please get a second stamp of authorization?  Anyone will do.06:13
tgBot<wayneoutthere> now that we've all dissed each other, at least he is covering free/open stuff sometimes so let's just eat the meat and spit out the bones06:14
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Okay06:16
tgBot<wayneoutthere> was that your inner Durst releasing?06:17
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @bneo99, I'm working on some changes to Ubuntu Touch so we can use hybris-boot, which is much simpler than the old initrd06:20
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Brings pros and cons, hopefully I can make the cons less... Con.06:21
tgBot<bneo99> okay06:23
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> But anyway, it has some better debugging capabilities06:23
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> And you'd use it to test the port initially anyway, so maybe you can figure out why it won't boot.06:24
tgBot<wayneoutthere> did you finally get your new years?  we're still waiting this thing out06:24
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yep06:24
tgBot<wayneoutthere> phew.  now that's finally done let's do 201806:25
tgBot<wayneoutthere> oh wait.  i still have another few hours here..06:25
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> I'd love to stay up with you... But at the same time I really wouldn't.06:25
tgBot<wayneoutthere> enjoy the zzz06:27
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> I will06:27
tgBot<samitormanen> Good morning and Happy New year to everyone!!! 🤘06:47
tgBot<wayneoutthere> almost, Sami, almost06:51
tgBot<wayneoutthere> 1 hour left for this zone :)06:52

tgBot<Chauhansukram> Sukram Arya: … I love Linux and I want ubuntu on my phone HTC 526G plus... can you suggest me how to flash on HTC. Is this safe ???12:54
tgBot<peternerlich> Welcome @Chauhansukram! I'm part of the Welcoming Team. Please check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome to get up to speed.12:55
tgBot<Mr_Doge> @Chauhansukram, you have to build it first12:56
tgBot<Mr_Doge> if it is not already build12:56
tgBot<Mr_Doge> *built12:56
tgBot<peternerlich> Yep, it's not in https://ubports.com/page/devices. From the FAQ: If you should want to get involved in porting, this guide (https://wiki.ubports.com/wiki/UBports-Development-Information) might be of interest.12:58
tgBot<Stereofont> @Chauhansukram, It is not like a ROM with TWRP. Your phone has only 1Gb of RAM and a Mediatek processor, so it is totally unsuitable. Do not waste time on it13:04
tgBot<peternerlich> On that notice, what would the road be to try and make a low end fork?13:10
tgBot<peternerlich> e.g. with lubuntu as base13:11
tgBot<dohbee> Don't. Just fix the bugs13:12
tgBot<peternerlich> No, I'm aware this will not get made, certainly not through me, but as a thought experiment, how hard would it be? (as in: how, "very"?) What makes UT not comparable wih Android devices (other than that it's simply targeting high end devices and convergence etc.)? Is it just the whole abstraction stuff?13:16
tgBot<Stereofont> I suppose the abstraction process is so resource intensive that there has to be a big payoff, to justify all that effort? Lite and minimal would seem like a let down?13:20
tgBot<dohbee> No. It's not abstraction. It's just in need of optimization and bug fixes13:31
tgBot<dohbee> E4.5 is 1GB and mtk, and Ubuntu worked fine on it13:32
tgBot<peternerlich> Yes, I have it as a daily driver13:41
tgBot<peternerlich> It works... ok13:42
tgBot<Stereofont> For an individual to tackle MTK would be unwise though13:44
tgBot<dohbee> Well, sure. Mediatek is awful. But to outright say a port isn't worth it because 1GB, is not good.13:54
tgBot<dohbee> If there's no kernel/device trees, a port isn't feasible. But if they are available, then I don't see why one couldn't port.13:56
tgBot<Stereofont> @dohbee, I am guessing that most would want to run Anbox ultimately and it seems that 1Gb of RAM wouldn't cut it, even with optimisation?14:07
tgBot<dohbee> @Stereofont, It would probably be fine. The reason Anbox isn't getting supported on the E4.5 and such, is because of the kernel, not the RAM.14:08
tgBot<dohbee> Anbox requires changes to the kernel, and I think those changes need 3.10+ kernel. so any device that's stuck on 3.4 (android 4.4 kernel) won't get it.14:09
tgBot<bhushanshah> The patches are simple enough to backport though14:10
tgBot<dohbee> well if someone wants to backport them, that's great. but my understanding was that the core ubports devs do not want to take on the extra burden of maintaining that14:10
tgBot<bhushanshah> Yeah.. nevertheless, ubports devs will have to do that for e.g hammerhead kernel (considering it's core device...) Or maybe not .. I am not sure14:12
tgBot<dohbee> i think hammerhead can run newer kernel14:13
tgBot<bhushanshah> No :-( there is 3.10 kernel somewhere but it's broken beyond repair..14:14
tgBot<bhushanshah> At some point though you'll be able to use mainline kernel.. 😛14:14
tgBot<bhushanshah> I'm adding bits and pieces in mainline14:15
tgBot<bhushanshah> Just got display working this holidays14:15
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> Useless14:15
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> You cannot just boot hammerhead on a newer kernel14:15
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> In the kernel you have dtbs and camera stack14:16
tgBot<dohbee> sure you can14:16
tgBot<dohbee> boot != use all hardware14:16
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> Dtbs, fine but until you get the camera stack right14:16
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> It won't even boot14:16
tgBot<bhushanshah> Uhhh14:16
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> @bhushanshah, Personal experience14:16
tgBot<bhushanshah> I totally have idea of what I'm talking about14:17
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> Unless you can add the camera changes it won't boot14:17
tgBot<dohbee> that makes no sense14:17
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> @bhushanshah, Implies you don't14:17
tgBot<bhushanshah> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯14:17
tgBot<dohbee> i can completely remove the camera module and my phone will still boot14:18
tgBot<AstonishedByTheLackOfNeko> @dohbee, Go ahead14:18
tgBot<bhushanshah> (Photo, 720x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/wDrCJbb0/file_3445.jpg Here is hammerhead "booting" mainline kernel, nothing fancy, just framebuffer supported at this point14:20
tgBot<Mattia> Wow, very good!14:21

tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @bhushanshah, You know, Framebuffer is more than most devices have.15:41
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> hybris-boot can't even access the Framebuffer on potter. sad day.15:41
tgBot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox, you need more magic i guess15:43
tgBot<wayneoutthere> @Stereofont, Gert article. Underscores our earlier discusssions of 'what is a smartphone' on audiocast. Thanks for sharing and super encouraging for Ubports team. Reignites our 'why'16:29

tgBot<SenorPunto> Ok. Thanks16:52
tgBot<Pgcor> Hi guys! It's two days I'm waiting for the account-confirmation-email of the ubports forum, is this normal?18:18
tgBot<Jyoti> Hi. I want to install the UBPorts in a BQ M10 FHD tablet. I had ubuntu from canonical, changed to android and now i want to put the UBPorts in it. May you tell me whitch is the best and easist way to do that?18:25
Fardale@Jyoti, you can use the ubport installer18:27
Fardalemake sure to backup all your data before18:27
tgBot<Ingo_FP_Angel> Hi @Pgcor, it seems to be "normal" at the moment, as several people - myself included - have the same problem. Not sure when that is going to be fixed 😕18:27
tgBot<Jyoti> Thanks! The ubports installer can install from android? Because the tablet has now android18:29
tgBot<Pgcor> @Ingo_FP_Angel, Ok thanks 👍18:30
tgBot<Ingo_FP_Angel> It does suck a bit not being able to reply to one or two existing topics, though...18:31
tgBot<Jyoti> And another question: i think that maybe there are some diferent versions or chanells. I want a development version in order to have the last updates... Is it possibly18:31
tgBot<Jyoti> ?18:31
tgBot<wayneoutthere> Yes it's possible.18:31
tgBot<wayneoutthere> you just go into your settings and update the channel. Oh @UniversalSuperBox is typing. he will answer better :)18:32
tgBot<dohbee> i think you need to use the mtk flash tool to repartition perhaps?18:33
Fardale@Jyoti, yes, it only need access to the bootloader18:33
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Yes18:33
tgBot<Pgcor> @Ingo_FP_Angel, I'm instead waiting to open a new thread18:34
tgBot<Jyoti> Is suposed to install the ubports installer in the laptop and after that connect the tablet to it? Or install the ubports installer directlly in the tablet?18:34
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> You'll need to access the Bq support website and type your serial number in it18:34
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> They'll give you the images that you need to use their flash tool to install18:35
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> To Ubuntu18:35
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Then you need to use the UBports installer18:35
tgBot<Jyoti> Ok. I have debian lxde in my laptop. Hope it's work :-)18:35
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> So you install our Ubuntu after you install factory Ubuntu18:36
tgBot<Ingo_FP_Angel> @UniversalSuperBox can you point @Pgcor and me to the right person who can fix the ubports forum registration confirmation e-mail?18:36
tgBot<Jyoti> So,Dalton, i need to install first the original Ubuntu image and only after the ubports image?18:36
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Ingo_FP_Angel, Looking into it right now.18:37
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> @Jyoti, Yes18:37
tgBot<Ingo_FP_Angel> Brilliant, thanks 👍18:37
tgBot<Jyoti> Ok. I will try. I am a litlle bit afraid, 'cause my knowleage of this kind of thinks is like my knowleage of the english language :-)18:38
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Make sure "Format All" is unchecked. That's the only tip I know18:39
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Maybe someone else has had to use SP Flash Tool to flash their device18:39
tgBot<Jyoti> So, just to confirm: the ubports installer is suposed to be installed in my debian laptop, correct?18:40
tgBot<dohbee> yes18:41
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> But you also need SP Flash Tool before that18:41
tgBot<Jyoti> Ok. Thanks a lot18:41
tgBot<Ram_rdb> okay I have a OPO18:44
tgBot<Ram_rdb> I want to flash ubuntu on it18:44
tgBot<Ram_rdb> I have a windows 10 laptop to flash ubuntu on phone18:45
tgBot<Ram_rdb> so the installer can help me?18:45
tgBot<dohbee> yes18:47
tgBot<Mr_Doge> (Document) https://irc.ubports.com/Y77FH007/file_3446.mp418:53
tgBot<Ram_rdb> haha18:53
tgBot<Ram_rdb> which version is recommended18:53
tgBot<dohbee> who was in here a few days ago and needed a specific twrp version for nexus 5?18:55
tgBot<dohbee> or was that for a pro 5?18:56
tgBot<dohbee> uh, telegram won't let me @ people it seems :(18:56
tgBot<Mr_Doge> latest one .. duh?18:59
tgBot<peternerlich> @Ram_rdb, http://ci.ubports.com/job/ubports/job/ubports-installer/job/master/19:00
tgBot<Ram_rdb> @peternerlich, I was asking the one to be used for my device19:04
tgBot<Ram_rdb> @Mr_Doge, is 16.04 more good?19:04
tgBot<Ram_rdb> or 15.0419:04
tgBot<dohbee> 15.04 is the stable release19:05
tgBot<dohbee> 16.04 is not at feature parity, and has more bugs still19:05
tgBot<Ram_rdb> is ui different in 16.04?19:07
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> If you want to use your phone in any capacity, use 15.0419:08
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> If you want to test, report bugs, and help develop, use 16.0419:08
tgBot<Ram_rdb> oh okay19:08
tgBot<dohbee> @Ram_rdb, no, same basic ui still19:08
tgBot<Ram_rdb> thanks19:08
tgBot<Ram_rdb> um you have opo?19:09
tgBot<dohbee> i don't19:10
tgBot<Ram_rdb> umm okay19:13

tgBot<dohbee> several people do. i don't know if anyone currently here is using opo19:14
tgBot<ebetonro> happy new year guys19:16
tgBot<ebetonro> is any of you know if the ubports installer has issues with Nexus 5?19:17
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> It does not19:20
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> But it does have general issues. What's the problem>19:20

tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> OS and version?19:23
tgBot<ebetonro> Linux mint 18.0319:23
tgBot<ebetonro> last time it worked19:23
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Okay, which format did you download the installer?19:23
tgBot<ebetonro> deb19:23
tgBot<UniversalSuperBox> Well. You can try starting the installer with sudo. If that doesn't work, try downloading the AppImage, make it executable, and run it from the terminal.19:25
tgBot<ebetonro> ok19:26
tgBot<ebetonro> I will try the installer with sudo first19:26
tgBot<Ram_rdb> installer isnt recognizing my device19:27
tgBot<Ram_rdb> what can I do?19:27
tgBot<ebetonro> select it manual19:27
tgBot<Ram_rdb> checked all the drivers19:27
tgBot<Ram_rdb> it wont recognize it in fastboot then19:27
tgBot<Ram_rdb> anyway we can flash without installer?19:30
tgBot<Ram_rdb> okay the cpt thing is working19:35
tgBot<Willy Weinmann> Did you activate the developer mode on your device?19:58
tgBot<Ram_rdb> yes19:59

tgBot<Ram_rdb> its taking so long to download19:59
tgBot<Mr_Doge> @Ram_rdb, might be your internet connection20:01
tgBot<Ram_rdb> I dont think so20:01
tgBot<Ram_rdb> have someone used this method?20:02
tgBot<Ram_rdb> what is the server from the app is downloading?20:08
tgBot<dohbee> system-image.ubports.com20:12
tgBot<Ram_rdb> ubport or ubtouch?20:13
tgBot<RoyNL> @Ram_rdb, On my OPO i first used the mdt to unlock it. After that it went smooth with the ubports installer.20:19
tgBot<Ram_rdb> I use Windows😕20:22
tgBot<Ram_rdb> mdt not available20:22
tgBot<RoyNL> @Ram_rdb, Time to use linux?20:23

tgBot<dohbee> nor is it the background22:27
tgBot<dohbee> hah, it's using gdk-pixbuf22:28
tgBot<dohbee> hmm, it's too bad the author of karma machine has basically just gone full android with the app and isn't doing anything with it on ubuntu any more. that'd be a good one to have in open store, for people who use reddit22:37
