| Lope | the onboard keyboard is really bad. Firstly uppercase letters don't work at all. Secondly, Pipe | produces a forward slash. Third, there's no up arrow. Fourth, it's a really poor use of space. The keyboard only uses a narrow area in the middle of my screen. Maybe 65% of the width of my screen is used, making it really tedious, forcing me to switch character sets (letters / numbers / symbols) constantly. It's a nice idea but it's REALLY broken. | 05:33 |
|---|---|---|
| Lope | To the point of having very limited practical usefulness. | 05:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Lope: !bug to the rescue | 05:34 |
| Lope | And then when I wanted to adjust the settings of onboard, the app to do so is not installed by default. I couldn't install it without an internet connection. And then I couldn't connect to a wifi network, because I couldn't type an uppercase letter. | 05:34 |

| Lope | Ubuntu 18.04 dev version comes with an onscreen keyboard that automatically activates when I click on stuff. It's a compact keyboard that hardly has any keys and uppercase doesn't work (I've filed bugs). I assumed that it is called onboard, however I tried to configure it using onboard-settings where I changed the layout from "compact" to "Full". However the automatic keyboard that gets launched didn't update after changing onboard-settings. | 07:22 |
| Lope | But instead if I run onboard manually, I get the full keyboard which works properly (including uppercase chars etc). But then whenever I click on a window that has a text input, the crappy compact keyboard pops up ontop of the onboard keyboard. Any ideas? | 07:22 |

| mattaustin | Hi all. I just decided to do a fresh install using the daily live image (have previously upgraded for a few releases, so haven't done a fresh install in a while). The expected option in the installer when setting my username to 'encrypt home folder' is missing. Does anyone know if this been deliberately removed, or should I file a bug report? A quick google didn't turn up anything useful. | 12:51 |

| nullptr__ | Hello, I am wondering the general stability level of the current bionic beta, and also, whether upgrade from beta to eventual release is supported? | 14:26 |
| TJ- | nullptr__: the release is just the final collection of packages at one instant in time. Once installed the regular package upgrade process keeps the system current | 14:28 |
| nullptr__ | Suppose I install a beta, and later dist-upgrade to release. Suppose I experience some bug that is only exhibited for people who *previously* had the beta installed. Do you know if canonical still considers that a bug? (As opposed to saying "you installed the beta; you take responsibility for anything that breaks now or in the future") | 14:32 |
| TJ- | nullptr__: if the current state of the system invokes a bug it's a bug | 14:42 |
| TJ- | generally you don't dist-upgrade to release from a beta... the beta just keeps up-to-date by installing the latest packages as they're released... about 5 days before the ISO release you'll have identical package versions to the ISO is being created with | 14:43 |
