[16:55] <SchuggerLeo> Hi, does anybody know how to install "spotify" in the latest lubuntu with snap ? snap seem to work, but it finds no package called spotify
[18:28] <milp_wurst> hi, ive got a nano pi neo v2 running ubuntu core and it is missing the usbserial module - is there a way to install this? is there a way to "upgrade" an ubuntu core installation to a full ubuntu server?
[19:13] <ogra_> milp_wurst, the module is definitely there on my ubuntu core install, what image did you use (did you roll it yourself ? )
[19:15]  * ogra_ points to http://people.canonical.com/~ogra/snappy/all-snaps/daily/current/
[19:23] <milp_wurst> i see images there, does one contain usb serial support?
[19:23] <milp_wurst> oh sorry didnt see your first message
[19:23] <milp_wurst> hold on ill look
[19:24] <milp_wurst> i went with "nanopi-neo_ubuntu-oled_4.x.y_YYYYMMDD.img.zip" since i have that oled display
[19:24] <milp_wurst> i guess ill ahve to recompile the kernel
[19:24] <milp_wurst> i dont get the reason for ubuntucore instead of something like raspian or a full ubuntu
[19:24] <milp_wurst> is there a way to make a "proper ubuntu" out of it?
[19:25] <milp_wurst> ogra_: which image are you using?
[19:25] <milp_wurst> are those images bzImages i can just drop into the boot folder?
[19:28] <milp_wurst> i wonder how long compiling the kernel is gonna take with the usb_serial options on and support for ftdi
[19:48] <ogra_> no, these images are pure ubuntu-core images
[19:48] <ogra_> (full disk ones ... install them like any other core image )
[19:48] <ogra_> "nanopi-neo_ubuntu-oled_4.x.y_YYYYMMDD.img.zip" is definitely not an ubuntu-core image
[19:51] <ogra_> istall instructions are at https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/installation-medias
[19:56] <ogra_> (for initial setup you can follow the install instructions section at https://developer.ubuntu.com/core/get-started/orange-pi-zero )
[20:22] <milp_wurst> it is based on ubuntu core and im afraid ill lose support for the oled display if i just use a stock ubuntu core image
[20:54] <ogra_> milp_wurst, it is not based on ubuntu-core ... ubuntu core is a readonly IoT product that is only built around snap packages (no dpkg/apt support at all)
[20:55] <ogra_> milp_wurst, you should ask friendlyarm why they claim this, whatever home-hacked images they provide there do not have any relation to ubuntucore
[20:56] <ogra_> (or to ubuntu in general)
[20:57] <ogra_> if their kernel they ship in these images does not support usbserial, you should try to get in touch with them that they fix this, proper ubuntu-core kernels have this module enabled by default (at öeast for all supported images)
[21:04] <milp_wurst> http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/index.php/NanoPi_NEO#Get_Image_Files
[21:04] <milp_wurst> thats where they claim it is
[21:04] <milp_wurst> i checked their most recent version of that image and it seems to contain usb serial driver modules in /lib/modules - so ill install that now
[21:05] <milp_wurst> im building a rs232-ethernet modem device out of this, ubuntu core wouldnt be the right thing for that purpose i guess
[21:38] <ogra_> milp_wurst, well, ubuntu-core would be perfectly fine for this but you'd have t learn to package your apps as snap packages for that ...
[21:39] <ogra_> secure and properly upgradeable IoT and enbedded are exactly the focus of ubuntu-core
[22:51] <memphisto> hi. I'm using kubuntu 16.04 with no backports.Looking for workaround for snaps showing in kde, dolphin
[22:51] <memphisto>  i know that in newer kde version there is a fix, but i'm sticking to LTS.
