ubptgbot<amolith> Anyone willing to send me a screenshot of the lockscreen of their UT tablet in portrait mode? I'm doing a presentation on Linux and I'm going to mention Ubuntu Touch. I've got one of my phone but I wanted one from a tablet to show both01:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> @amolith, No, tablets only do landscape lock screen01:22
ubptgbot<amolith> @dohbee, Landscape then lol. I should be able to change the frame orientation01:23
ubptgbot<dohbee> Portrait would look same as the phone though01:23
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> (That's part of the reason by the UBports convergence logo looks so nice... balance.)01:23
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> :)01:23
ubptgbot<amolith> Lol :P01:23
ubptgbot<amolith> How do you get UT lockscreen into landscape mode on mobile?01:24
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Might be able to so something in UT Tweak Tool01:24
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But otherwise it's locked based on the device profile01:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> Build u8 on x86, and run it in a window in lockscreen mode, and take a picture01:25
ubptgbot<amolith> Lol I can just connect it to my monitor. That's landscape by default lol01:26
ubptgbot<amolith> [Edit] Lol I can just connect it to my monitor. That's landscape by default01:26
ubptgbot<dohbee> Or tha01:26
ubptgbot<dohbee> Just do it live01:27
ubptgbot<dohbee> Unity8 is better than the unixporn screenshots01:28
ubptgbot<amolith> @dohbee, I'm connecting my computer to a monitor which is connected to a projector. All of which is VGA. I only have an HDMI male to VGA female adapter for it and my UT adapter is HDMI male01:28
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @dohbee, Because large amounts of iteration and design experise was dumped into it?01:29
ubptgbot<dohbee> Don't be sexist. It's not cool01:29
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> oh lol01:29
ubptgbot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox, Because I said so? :)01:29
ubptgbot<amolith> @dohbee, I disagree. I think it's different and would appeal to a different audience. I much prefer the stuff I see on unixporn but I know that that would intimidate some people01:29
ubptgbot<amolith> @dohbee, [Edit] I disagree. I think it's different and would appeal to a different audience. I much prefer the stuff I see on unixporn but I know that that would intimidate some people lol01:30
ubptgbot<amolith> @dohbee, [Edit] I disagree. I think it's different and would appeal to a different audience. I much prefer the stuff I see on unixporn but I know that that would intimidate some of the people I'm presenting to lol01:30
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I know that @TartanSpartan has a tablet, he should be around pretty quick01:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> @amolith, Pfft, I was modding fvwm2 before most of those kids were born01:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox, I hope he's not. Pretty late in the UK right now01:31

ubptgbot<Michael Leurer> Hmm this is interesting. So this is a Ubuntu version for the phone?02:22
ubptgbot<Michael Leurer> Does it support a galaxy note 8?02:23
ubptgbot<amolith> @Michael Leurer, I think Ivan Semkin is working on a port for the S8+ but there isn't a port for the note 8 yet. You can check ubuntu-touch.io/devices to see the devices currently supported. Check out ubports.com/telegram-welcome to get you started!02:41
ubptgbot<Michael Leurer> Thank you.02:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I think you've got the wrong person02:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But I don't know who the right one is02:43
ubptgbot<mateosalta> nice looking hardware, but samsung always does do quite some wierd things with their software ui, would be  quite nice to see ubuntu touch on it02:44
ubptgbot<mateosalta> I always thought the curved edges would be great for the gesture navigation02:44
ubptgbot<Michael Leurer> Soo good news I'm looking into porting Ubuntu touch for the note 8.03:03
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> I think we did some news desk and mentioned her... Maybe @sk8higher04:23

ubptgbot<Flohack> @skrech, I will take care of this. Yes we are being notified09:49

ubptgbot<skrech> Nice, just wanted to be sure that i'm not missing a step in the procedure10:24
ubptgbot<jonny> @Danceswithcats, You can search that for your phone. Usally you turn off the phone and plug in the usb connection to your computer while hold volume up.10:35

ubptgbot<advocatux> Good question :) Let's start with deb17:14
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> `~/.cache/ubports`17:15
ubptgbot<advocatux> Thank you!17:16
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Snap should be in the equivalent folder in `~/snap/ubports-installer`17:16
ubptgbot<advocatux> And for the hat-trick... appimage? πŸ˜†17:16

ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> Test22:22
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> (Document) https://irc.ubports.com/yYuhQgkp.null22:22
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> Hmm, that's the 1.1 version. Does anyone have the 1.8 version? And why isn't it on OpenStore anymore?22:24
ubptgbot<matv1> yeah a pity. I believe Rudi gave up on Ubuntu Touch and I guess he pulled his click off the store22:35
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> Sucks if he isn't supporting it anymore, but the best we can hope for then is that someone has the 1.8 click. The standard FB app, long gone from uApp Explorer or OpenStore, has recently been showing a ghetto internet version of the site on tablet devices, so Sailbook is preferable.22:40
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> *webapp22:40
ubptgbot<Daniel Lowery> hey Mathijs22:44
ubptgbot<Daniel Lowery> All Ubports installation instructions should have a warning to expect the "Ubports Recovery" screen and to do nothing when it appears. It is confusing and counter-intuitive for a "recovery" screen to appear while an installation is successfully in progress, so some people assume that something went wrong with the installation,22:44
ubptgbot and they mistakenly click on a recovery screen option. … At any rate, the phone seemed bricked. The only thing that would appear on the phone's screen was a Google logo with an icon of a small, open lock. … I tried several times get back into fastboot by pressing the prescribed combination of the phone's buttons, and I tried every other combinatio22:44
ubptgbotn of button presses -- all to no avail. … I remembered that fastboot was installed on my computer, so I connected the Nexus 5 and ran "fastboot oem unlock" in a terminal (can't remember if I was root) and the fastboot screen appeared on the phone!22:44
ubptgbot<Daniel Lowery> From here - hope it helps22:44
ubptgbot<Daniel Lowery> https://forums.ubports.com/topic/788/installing-on-nexus-5/822:44
ubptgbot<Daniel Lowery> and if it does, I suggest we get this thread stickied22:45
ubptgbot<matv1> @Daniel Lowery, hey Daniel, thanks for that hint but that wasnt my issue. For flashing Turbo to 16.04/devel , the ubports-installer just does not seem to work. I finally reverted back to good old trusted ubuntu-device-flash and that worked for me. I would seriously like for someone to prove me wrong but I expect there is going t22:54
ubptgboto turn out some kind of bug. Possible device- and or channel specific.22:54
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @TartanSpartan  https://github.com/Ruditimmermans/sailbook?files=123:07
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> Right, but do you have to compile it yourself?23:12
ubptgbot<S31BZ> @matv1, This is very true23:15
ubptgbot<matv1> Hey @S31BZ so can you confirm this issue? I am hesitating filing a bug23:16
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Tried using the ubports installer for my OnePlus One using both my Mac and my Linux laptop. Hung at "plug in device over usb" for me on either, various times.23:18
ubptgbot<S31BZ> So feel free to file23:18
ubptgbot<matv1> thanks for confirming. Sounds like the exact same. Were you flashing to 16.04 by any chance?23:18
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Tried both that and the 15 release23:19
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Both hung23:19
ubptgbot<matv1> oh okay.23:19
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Spent like three hours last night looking for fixes lol23:19
ubptgbot<matv1> haha i feel your pain πŸ˜€23:20
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Is ubuntu-device-flash available for Arch?23:20
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @TartanSpartan just built it here23:20
ubptgbot<mateosalta> (Document) https://irc.ubports.com/cIbaXuxF.null23:20
ubptgbot<matv1> @S31BZ not sure but I doubt it would work on Arch23:21
ubptgbot<S31BZ> Hmm I'll do some digging then. Would give me something to do while recovering from 4/20 lol23:22
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> There's almost always something up with adb, udev rules, something23:22
ubptgbot<S31BZ> In the ubports installer that's likely but I could never find the logs on Mac23:23
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Well I could tell you23:25
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> If I had one23:26
ubptgbot<matv1> @UniversalSuperBox, it seemed more stable in the past. But maybe i as just lucky then.23:26
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Basically. What it's doing doesn't change too much.23:26
ubptgbot<matv1> true23:27
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I'm not denying that it has problems. I had to run it with sudo pretty often to get it working23:29
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> And we have a whole room dedicated to the thing23:29
ubptgbot<matv1> Having said that, we maybe ought to communicate a little more about the cli option when the installer fails. I was some time ago I used ubuntu device flash, and I really had to search to find the correct syntax, url and channels names23:30
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But that doesn't exist past Ubuntu 16.0423:30
ubptgbot<dohbee> You don't need either to switch channels23:30
ubptgbot<matv1> say what? to both ..23:31
ubptgbot<matv1> just saying we might want to tell ppl about ubuntu-device-flash23:32
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> ubuntu-device-flash was removed from Ubuntu in 17.0423:32
ubptgbot<matv1> ahah23:32
ubptgbot<matv1> but one could still install manually23:32
