ubptgbot<NikosChat> @alan_morford no. Either you use the ubports installer or on your phone's terminal you type  sudo system-image-cli --switch 16.04/rc01:21
ubptgbot<alan_morford> @NikosChat, Thank you02:11
ubptgbot<sergiusens> @popeydc, Not sure if anyone got back to you, but sudo with the installer is what I did. There might be a missing requires audio check for fastboot03:21
ubptgbot<popeydc> @sergiusens, yeah, that worked here03:22
ubptgbot<popeydc> Also flashed the bq e4.5 and m10 :)03:29
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> @popeydc, noice! with 16.04?03:38
ubptgbot<popeydc> Yes03:38
ubptgbot<popeydc> Loved your video about terminal the other day by the way03:38
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> thanks :D03:38
ubptgbot<zubozrout> Oh, is @mzanetti not using Ubuntu Touch anymore? I hope not :(. Who could live without Machines vs. Machines on a phone. And his (so many) other awesome apps. I know there has been some discussion about Tagger not being updated to Xenial here - but does it apply to all his apps?06:17
ubptgbot<mymike00> @malditobastardo, -30% in 10h~ but I think soon I'll have to replace the battery...07:22
ubptgbot<TomasOqvist> @zubozrout, It appears so. He no longer has the environment set up to compile his apps. Apparently he is busy with some new project within IoT.07:52
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @TomasOqvist, He was in charge of the file manager app right ? Any ideas what will happen to that now?08:41
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @mymike00, Hmm. Are you on xenial?08:42
ubptgbot<mymike00> @malditobastardo, nope08:42
ubptgbot<mymike00> @malditobastardo, I think he was @sverzegnassi ...08:42
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @mymike00, Oh yeah. You are right. Thank you08:43
ubptgbot<mymike00> ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป08:43
ubptgbot<Flohack> @malditobastardo, Basically our team did some first improvements, specifically @sverzegnassi as mentioned did a lot of work already. But we are not quite there to make a new release. But of course, its a core App and will live on.09:13
ubptgbot<Jakob> @zubozrout, Unfortunally, Tagger don't work on xenial. It starts, open camera-view, but don't identify any qr-code. Is  there a simple possibilty to recompile it to 16.04?09:14
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> I try to install "clickable" via ppa (kubuntu 18.04) . "clickable setup docker" ends with "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.dir_util' " Whats wrong?09:14
ubptgbot<JBBgameich> You can fix it by installing python3-distutils. This is already fixed in the repository but not yet released.09:19
ubptgbot<Zack> Is there a blue light filter app for the Ubuntu Touch? Just to avoid straining the eyes09:19
ubptgbot<rupansh> @Zack, sudo apt-get install redshift-gtk09:20
ubptgbot<Zack> @rupansh, Thank you!09:20
ubptgbot<rupansh> or you can use f.lux as well09:20
ubptgbot<Zack> Which one would you recommend?09:22
ubptgbot<Waldbursche> @JBBgameich, It works. Thanks ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ09:30
ubptgbot<advocatux> @Zack, No, there isn't, but you can reduce the screen brightness09:33
ubptgbot<advocatux> What @rupansh says is for Ubuntu desktop09:34
ubptgbot<Zack> @advocatux yes, since the terminal did not work to install the Redshift add-on unfortunately09:40
ubptgbot<Zack> Is it possible to adjust the background on UT 15.04?09:42
ubptgbot<Zack> (Photo, 720x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/i78c84aS.png09:44
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Zack, Yes sure, youhave it in the system options09:45
ubptgbot<Flohack> Background, and then choose one of the existing ones, or on the bottom selct your pwn09:45
ubptgbot<Flohack> own lol09:45
ubptgbot<Zack> Hahaha awesome!09:45
ubptgbot<Zack> You know wht would be extremely cool09:45
ubptgbot<Zack> To be able to customize the updates in between that circle to be a group of text messages which you preset yourself09:46
ubptgbot<Zack> And change according to a specific time interval09:46
ubptgbot<Zack> To guide your mind subconsciously throughout the day to focus on the things you want your phone to display09:47
ubptgbot<Zack> ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ09:47
ubptgbot<Flohack> hehe09:50
ubptgbot<Flohack> Well the future of the spinner stuff is not clear. currently you can only turn it off, and you can tap it to change the text. Did yxou know09:50
ubptgbot<advocatux> Zack see https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/ubuntu-touch-lock-screen-13709:50
ubptgbot<Zack> @Flohack, ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ09:51

ubptgbot<Zack> Does someone has the telegram of Michal Predotka for me?09:57
ubptgbot<Zack> The creator of the circle message app!09:57
ubptgbot<Flohack> I dont think so :)10:12
ubptgbot<Xray2000> @Zack, You can try contact him on this email:  mpredotka@gmail.com10:15
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Flohack, Thank you Flo. Right now the only thing that worries me is the content-hub bug that doesnt let you to attach or open any file. https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/668#issuecomment-39732490810:19
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> I don't know if that is the correct issue10:19
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @dohbee, Sounds dangerous10:38
ubptgbot<rupansh> @Stereofont, Alcohol? not really10:40
ubptgbot<dohbee> @rupansh, No10:44

ubptgbot<Carlo> Hi everybody! I'm interesting in ubports and I wish to install it on my NGM YouColor P550, but I don't know if my device is compatible with your OS. How can I do to know that? Thanks a lot! Carlo.11:20
ubptgbot<j2g2rp> Hi carlo. โ€ฆ here you can take a look about suported devices: โ€ฆ https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ โ€ฆ there is also, if you have porting skills to port your device. Since I'm not a programmer i don't know a lot about it but it can take months of work without any waranties of success.11:24
ubptgbot<Zack> @Xray2000, Thank you!11:26
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @mymike00, Doesn't work with my FP2. Generates an error12:19
ubptgbot<mymike00> @Stereofont, mmh idk, I've never used that way, just saw someone was suggesting it...12:20
ubptgbot<mymike00> @dohbee @mariogrip ?12:21
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @mymike00, 'Exception occurred during update'12:25
ubptgbot<dohbee> about the keyring blacklist file?12:31

ubptgbot<HenryOne> Is there a telegram group for Ubuntu desktop13:02
ubptgbot<HenryOne> [Edit] Is there a telegram group for Ubuntu desktop?13:02

ubptgbot<unknown> I've successfully installed unity8 using the install script โ€ฆ But after selecting unity8 and typing password on login screen nothing happens โ€ฆ After hitting enter again there is a red "Failed to start session" error14:05
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> @unknown, probably this issue. there is a workaround https://github.com/ubports/unity8-desktop-install-tools/issues/2214:05
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> not sure if the desktop is high priority right now14:06
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> some issues with logind something that are WIP and maybe with the new version of mir they will be solved or something14:07
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> even if you manage to start the session is not very usable14:08
ubptgbot<popescu_sorin> (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/G3dInP5Z.webp14:08

ubptgbot<altoria> Hello everyone, I'm porting Ubports to my Oneplus 5T. When I use the command "halium-install-standalone", it says "chroot: /bin/bash not found". Is there a way I can install the /bin/bash into the image? thanks.14:36
ubptgbot<unknown> @popescu_sorin, chown didn't solve my problem14:36
ubptgbot<altoria> @altoria, Any help? thanks!14:47
ubptgbot<libremax> Better asking @halium14:49
ubptgbot<unknown> @popescu_sorin, Anyway I want to try ;-)14:56
ubptgbot<Carlo> @j2g2rp, It seems to me that my device doesn't support Ubports, because it has only 4 GB of memory... It's a pity!!! Is there nothing for a powerless device?15:11
ubptgbot<Carlo> @Josu Anyway, thank you for the help!15:11

ubptgbot<Stellwerk> @Bolly, Hallo ich versuche es , I try16:08
ubptgbot<Stellwerk> is a german speak group there16:09
ubptgbot<K31j0> Yeah, let me find you the link16:09

ubptgbot<amolith> Wir haben einen deutschen Kanal hier, wenn Sie interessiert sind . . .16:09
ubptgbot<amolith> @jonny, @Stellwerk hier ^^16:10
ubptgbot<K31j0> @jonny, faster than me16:10
ubptgbot<jonny> Winner! ๐Ÿ˜‰16:10
ubptgbot<amolith> @jonny, I had to translate it to german :P How accurate is what I said?16:11
ubptgbot<jonny> @amolith, It is perfekt. Congratulations!16:11
ubptgbot<Stellwerk> 1000 Dank, habs gefunden16:12
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Carlo, You mean storage not RAM? It should be enough to run ubports, but not much room for data16:32
ubptgbot<Carlo> @dohbee, Yes I mean storage. If it is enough ti run ubports, hiw van I do? My device is not listed in supported devices...16:35
ubptgbot<NotKit> Carlo generally the issue is not about power or storage, but that every device requires tremendeous amount of work to get UBPorts running on it16:36
ubptgbot<NotKit> you can see that the list is short, that's why16:36
ubptgbot<Carlo> @NotKit, Oh! What a pity!!!16:38
ubptgbot<Carlo> Thank you forma you help!16:38
ubptgbot<YougoChats> (Photo, 1080x1920) https://irc.ubports.com/ULJC4VQd.png16:58
ubptgbot<YougoChats> 16.04 rc on fp2, all webapps end up like this16:58
ubptgbot<YougoChats> they do load correctly a few times,  but then start doing this16:59
ubptgbot<YougoChats> wiping cache, deleting them and reinstalling them only works the first few times and then they start to crap out again.17:01
ubptgbot<YougoChats> anyone know what to do about it, or at least where to report?17:04
ubptgbot<zubozrout> @YougoChats This happens to me quite often too but I suppose it is also ne of the reasons new web browser is being worked on - those web-apps don't crash in it.17:05
ubptgbot<zubozrout> [Edit] @YougoChats This happens to me quite often too but I suppose it is also one of the reasons new web browser is being worked on - those web-apps don't crash in it.17:06
ubptgbot<YougoChats> i have browser-next installed. guess i have to work with bookmarks for the time being then.17:07
ubptgbot<YougoChats> i also have a longer list of things i encountered  with 16.04 rc. where should i post that?17:08
ubptgbot<zubozrout> I'd guess either here: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues or under specific app repository: https://github.com/ubports - but try to check if your bug hasn't been reported already ... I've seen a few duplicates over the last couple of days there.17:13
ubptgbot<zubozrout> [Edit] I'd guess either here: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues or under specific app repository if it is not system-wide issue: https://github.com/ubports - but try to check if your bug hasn't been reported already ... I've seen a few duplicates over the last couple of days there.17:13
ubptgbot<YougoChats> i'll sort them as best as i can17:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> @YougoChats, Translation?17:18
ubptgbot<YougoChats> 'Oops, something went wrong'17:18
ubptgbot<YougoChats> not terribly helpful17:19
ubptgbot<dohbee> Weird17:19
ubptgbot<YougoChats> strange thing is, the page loads up to 95-ish % making you think maybe this time it'll pull through, only to flake out on the last bit.17:20
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @altoria, @UniversalSuperBox17:24
ubptgbot<zubozrout> @dohbee, is it really? try accessing web telegram in the default browser on your phone ... it always crashes for me ... since around the beginning of February this year (on Xenial of course).17:24
ubptgbot<zubozrout> That is at least on Meizu MX4 arale17:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> @zubozrout, That is not a crash17:25
ubptgbot<zubozrout> What do you mean? I meant ... the browser is still runing but the web app itself crashes just as on the screenshot above17:26

ubptgbot<advocatux> @Bud Eiseman, Hi Bud, welcome. Take a look to https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome ๐Ÿ‘19:13
ubptgbot<Bud Eiseman> Does M10 or Ubuntu have anything like โ€œsearchโ€ in Windows where you can find a file by searching for words within a file. For instance.19:17
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> If you're comfortable in a terminal, you can do a full text search using grep -r "search text"19:18
ubptgbot<ignorare> What is the easiest way to get 180 MB of PDF-files onto my UT-device?19:37
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ignorare, drag and drop them into the Documents folder via MTP?19:52
ubptgbot<ignorare> But this works only when connecting with a cable, no?19:56
ubptgbot<ignorare> Wireless is not possible (e.g. SFTP)?19:56
ubptgbot<mymike00> You can use ssh19:58
ubptgbot<advocatux> @ignorare, You can try something like this https://gurucubano.gitbooks.io/bq-aquaris-e-4-5-ubuntu-phone/content/en/chapter1.html19:59
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Wifitransfer?19:59
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Btw wifi transfer doesn't work on xenial19:59
ubptgbot<zubozrout> It is very easy to connect to an Ubuntu phone using Nautilus (Gnome File manager) once SSH is set-up20:00
ubptgbot<advocatux> @malditobastardo, Right, I forgot that app exists20:00
ubptgbot<mymike00> @malditobastardo, @stuartlangridge ? ^^20:01
ubptgbot<Cesar_Herrera> @malditobastardo, Very usefull.20:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ignorare, sure it's possible. just enable ssh on the phone, and copy your public key to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`20:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> i'm pretty sure i've answered this exact question from you previously, and even provided the phablet-shell script which sets up a key and enables ssh over adb, when you run it20:03
ubptgbot<Bud Eiseman> Hi Dalton. Thanks for your quick reply! I saw your recommendation elsewhere but some thought that it would take a long time for the system to come up with results. In windows it is very quick20:06
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Bud Eiseman, are you asking about ubuntu on PC or ubuntu touch?20:09
ubptgbot<Bud Eiseman> Ubuntu touch20:11
ubptgbot<ankaos> hฤฑ20:11
ubptgbot<ankaos> How much zip does it have to be for j5lte which has 8 gb internal memory?20:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> there is no file indexing done on the phone, no20:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ankaos, i do not understand the question? 8gb is enough to install UT for sure, but that device is not supported currently20:12
ubptgbot<ankaos> ฤฑ make ubport for j5lte.20:12
ubptgbot<ankaos> but it warns that the memory is full20:13
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ankaos, do you have halium ported yet? i'd recommend joining @halium for discussion about getting it porte to your device20:13
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ankaos, how are you "making" it?20:13
ubptgbot<ankaos> link: https://docs.halium.org/en/latest/porting/get-sources.html20:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> you can't just take ubports rootfs or images for another device and dump them on your devices20:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> yes you need to check out the sources on a pc, not on the device itself20:14
ubptgbot<dohbee> the device itself will get wiped several times during porting, most likely20:15
ubptgbot<ankaos> Can you take a look at the log?20:15
ubptgbot<dohbee> no20:15
ubptgbotnirajnikant was added by: nirajnikant20:15
ubptgbot<dohbee> the halium sources are huge. you'll need probably 50GB free space to chect out, and compile what is needed20:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> as i said, you should join @halium to discuss porting to your device20:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> once halium is build and working you can then start porting UT and join @ubports_porting to discuss that portion20:17
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Bud Eiseman, sorry if it wasn't clear. there i no full text indexing of data on the phone. files are also not generally the way one interacts with data on phones/tablets20:17
ubptgbot<ignorare> @dohbee, Yeah, but I already tried to find your post and I didn't see it anymore... Too much content in here! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜„20:23
ubptgbot<ignorare> Such a script would be awesome! Please, could you repost it maybe? Thanks a lot!!!20:24
ubptgbot<dohbee> @ignorare, if you have telegram-desktop it's in the list of files under group info20:25
ubptgbot<dohbee> not sure if that's accessible from the telegram-app on UT though20:26
ubptgbot<ignorare> @dohbee, oh no, I am so sorry! ๐Ÿ˜ณ  I just figured out that I was already using "Wifi transfer" in the past! There is a similar patch available for SFOS called "SSH Access confirmation". I didn't remember I installed Wifi transfer" on UT already...20:29
ubptgbot<ignorare> But nevertheless, SSH-key pair would be less annoying I guess, no?20:30
ubptgbot<ignorare> ... because not always confirmation required etc. - just connecting and go ahead.20:31
ubptgbot<ignorare> [Edit] @dohbee, oh no, I am so sorry! ๐Ÿ˜ณ Shame on me! ๐Ÿ˜  I just figured out that I was already using "Wifi transfer" in the past! There is a similar patch available for SFOS called "SSH Access confirmation". I didn't remember I installed Wifi transfer" on UT already...20:32
ubptgbot<ignorare> [Edit] ... because not always requesting password etc. - just connecting and go ahead.20:32
ubptgbot<ignorare> [Edit] But nevertheless, SSH-key pair would be less annoying and more comfortable I guess, no?20:47

ubptgbot<matv1> that doesnt seem to be the issue23:13

ubptgbot<matv1> question is: why?23:15
ubptgbot<geogeigy> Hi everyone! Is it possible to install Ubuntu touch on the Surface Pro?23:22
ubptgbot<amolith> @geogeigy, Unfortunately not. You can check out out supported devices at devices.ubuntu-touch.io23:24
ubptgbot<amolith> @geogeigy, You might be able to port UT to the Surface Pro, however.23:25

ubptgbot<VeryOriginalUsername> [Edit] "Ultra low power" intel x86(_64) cpu series23:51
ubptgbot<amolith> Then probably not. The closest he'd get is Ubuntu running Unity 8 then23:51
