[01:21] @alan_morford no. Either you use the ubports installer or on your phone's terminal you type sudo system-image-cli --switch 16.04/rc [02:11] @NikosChat, Thank you [03:21] @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 fastboot [03:22] @sergiusens, yeah, that worked here [03:29] Also flashed the bq e4.5 and m10 :) [03:38] @popeydc, noice! with 16.04? [03:38] Yes [03:38] Loved your video about terminal the other day by the way [03:38] thanks :D [06:17] 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? [07:22] @malditobastardo, -30% in 10h~ but I think soon I'll have to replace the battery... [07:52] @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. [08:41] @TomasOqvist, He was in charge of the file manager app right ? Any ideas what will happen to that now? [08:42] @mymike00, Hmm. Are you on xenial? [08:42] @malditobastardo, nope [08:42] @malditobastardo, I think he was @sverzegnassi ... [08:43] @mymike00, Oh yeah. You are right. Thank you [08:43] 👍🏻 [09:13] @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. [09:14] @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] I try to install "clickable" via ppa (kubuntu 18.04) . "clickable setup docker" ends with "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.dir_util' " Whats wrong? [09:19] You can fix it by installing python3-distutils. This is already fixed in the repository but not yet released. [09:19] Is there a blue light filter app for the Ubuntu Touch? Just to avoid straining the eyes [09:20] @Zack, sudo apt-get install redshift-gtk [09:20] @rupansh, Thank you! [09:20] or you can use f.lux as well [09:22] Which one would you recommend? [09:30] @JBBgameich, It works. Thanks 👍🏼 [09:33] @Zack, No, there isn't, but you can reduce the screen brightness [09:34] What @rupansh says is for Ubuntu desktop [09:40] @advocatux yes, since the terminal did not work to install the Redshift add-on unfortunately [09:42] Is it possible to adjust the background on UT 15.04? [09:44] (Photo, 720x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/i78c84aS.png [09:45] @Zack, Yes sure, youhave it in the system options [09:45] Background, and then choose one of the existing ones, or on the bottom selct your pwn [09:45] own lol [09:45] Hahaha awesome! [09:45] You know wht would be extremely cool [09:46] To be able to customize the updates in between that circle to be a group of text messages which you preset yourself [09:46] And change according to a specific time interval [09:47] To guide your mind subconsciously throughout the day to focus on the things you want your phone to display [09:47] 😮😮 [09:50] hehe [09:50] 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 know [09:50] Zack see https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/ubuntu-touch-lock-screen-137 [09:51] @Flohack, 👌👌 [09:51] @advocatux, Thanks! I will read this! [09:51] 👍 [09:52] There are some other amazing tutorials here https://ubports.com/blog/ubports-blog-1/tag/blogs-2 [09:56] This is really cool man! [09:56] Let's read them all 👌 [09:57] Does someone has the telegram of Michal Predotka for me? [09:57] The creator of the circle message app! [10:12] I dont think so :) [10:15] @Zack, You can try contact him on this email: mpredotka@gmail.com [10:19] @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-397324908 [10:19] I don't know if that is the correct issue [10:38] @dohbee, Sounds dangerous [10:40] @Stereofont, Alcohol? not really [10:44] @rupansh, No [10:44] @dohbee, okay [10:50] armangreat1 was added by: armangreat1 [11:19] Carlo was added by: Carlo [11:20] 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. [11:24] Hi carlo. … here you can take a look about suported devices: … https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ … 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. [11:26] @Xray2000, Thank you! [12:19] @mymike00, Doesn't work with my FP2. Generates an error [12:20] @Stereofont, mmh idk, I've never used that way, just saw someone was suggesting it... [12:21] @dohbee @mariogrip ? [12:25] @mymike00, 'Exception occurred during update' [12:31] about the keyring blacklist file? [12:32] not sure. always works for me just fine, via adb/ssh [13:02] Is there a telegram group for Ubuntu desktop [13:02] [Edit] Is there a telegram group for Ubuntu desktop? [13:16] How to search in file manager? [13:16] @HenryOne, I have searched with ubuntu desktop: two groups, one cancelled and the other not interesting... [14:02] Hey - I have trouble with Unity8 for Desktop … Is this the right place to get help? [14:05] I've successfully installed unity8 using the install script … But after selecting unity8 and typing password on login screen nothing happens … After hitting enter again there is a red "Failed to start session" error [14:05] @unknown, probably this issue. there is a workaround https://github.com/ubports/unity8-desktop-install-tools/issues/22 [14:06] not sure if the desktop is high priority right now [14:07] some issues with logind something that are WIP and maybe with the new version of mir they will be solved or something [14:08] even if you manage to start the session is not very usable [14:08] (Sticker, 512x512) https://irc.ubports.com/G3dInP5Z.webp [14:10] it's something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PITcJLo0A58 [14:16] Hi!

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] @popescu_sorin, chown didn't solve my problem [14:47] @altoria, Any help? thanks! [14:49] Better asking @halium [14:56] @popescu_sorin, Anyway I want to try ;-) [15:11] @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] @Josu Anyway, thank you for the help! [15:24] Stellwerk was added by: Stellwerk [16:07] Welcome @Stellwerk !!! Check out this to get you started! If you have any questions, feel free to ask here or in our Welcome and Install room! https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome [16:08] @Bolly, Hallo ich versuche es , I try [16:09] is a german speak group there [16:09] Yeah, let me find you the link [16:09] @Stellwerk, Hier: https://t.me/UBports_Deutsch [16:09] Wir haben einen deutschen Kanal hier, wenn Sie interessiert sind . . . [16:10] @jonny, @Stellwerk hier ^^ [16:10] @jonny, faster than me [16:10] Winner! 😉 [16:11] @jonny, I had to translate it to german :P How accurate is what I said? [16:11] @amolith, It is perfekt. Congratulations! [16:12] 1000 Dank, habs gefunden [16:32] @Carlo, You mean storage not RAM? It should be enough to run ubports, but not much room for data [16:35] @dohbee, Yes I mean storage. If it is enough ti run ubports, hiw van I do? My device is not listed in supported devices... [16:36] Carlo generally the issue is not about power or storage, but that every device requires tremendeous amount of work to get UBPorts running on it [16:36] you can see that the list is short, that's why [16:38] @NotKit, Oh! What a pity!!! [16:38] Thank you forma you help! [16:58] (Photo, 1080x1920) https://irc.ubports.com/ULJC4VQd.png [16:58] 16.04 rc on fp2, all webapps end up like this [16:59] they do load correctly a few times, but then start doing this [17:01] wiping cache, deleting them and reinstalling them only works the first few times and then they start to crap out again. [17:04] anyone know what to do about it, or at least where to report? [17:05] @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. [17:06] [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. [17:07] i have browser-next installed. guess i have to work with bookmarks for the time being then. [17:08] i also have a longer list of things i encountered with 16.04 rc. where should i post that? [17:13] 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] [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. [17:16] i'll sort them as best as i can [17:18] @YougoChats, Translation? [17:18] 'Oops, something went wrong' [17:19] not terribly helpful [17:19] Weird [17:20] 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. [17:24] @altoria, @UniversalSuperBox [17:24] @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] That is at least on Meizu MX4 arale [17:25] @zubozrout, That is not a crash [17:26] What do you mean? I meant ... the browser is still runing but the web app itself crashes just as on the screenshot above [19:12] Bud Eiseman was added by: Bud Eiseman [19:13] @Bud Eiseman, Hi Bud, welcome. Take a look to https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome 👍 [19:17] Does M10 or Ubuntu have anything like “search” in Windows where you can find a file by searching for words within a file. For instance. [19:18] If you're comfortable in a terminal, you can do a full text search using grep -r "search text" [19:37] What is the easiest way to get 180 MB of PDF-files onto my UT-device? [19:52] @ignorare, drag and drop them into the Documents folder via MTP? [19:56] But this works only when connecting with a cable, no? [19:56] Wireless is not possible (e.g. SFTP)? [19:58] You can use ssh [19:59] @ignorare, You can try something like this https://gurucubano.gitbooks.io/bq-aquaris-e-4-5-ubuntu-phone/content/en/chapter1.html [19:59] Wifitransfer? [19:59] Btw wifi transfer doesn't work on xenial [20:00] It is very easy to connect to an Ubuntu phone using Nautilus (Gnome File manager) once SSH is set-up [20:00] @malditobastardo, Right, I forgot that app exists [20:01] @malditobastardo, @stuartlangridge ? ^^ [20:02] @malditobastardo, Very usefull. [20:02] @ignorare, sure it's possible. just enable ssh on the phone, and copy your public key to `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` [20:03] 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 it [20:06] 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 quick [20:09] @Bud Eiseman, are you asking about ubuntu on PC or ubuntu touch? [20:11] Ubuntu touch [20:11] hı [20:11] How much zip does it have to be for j5lte which has 8 gb internal memory? [20:11] there is no file indexing done on the phone, no [20:12] @ankaos, i do not understand the question? 8gb is enough to install UT for sure, but that device is not supported currently [20:12] ı make ubport for j5lte. [20:13] but it warns that the memory is full [20:13] @ankaos, do you have halium ported yet? i'd recommend joining @halium for discussion about getting it porte to your device [20:13] @ankaos, how are you "making" it? [20:14] link: https://docs.halium.org/en/latest/porting/get-sources.html [20:14] you can't just take ubports rootfs or images for another device and dump them on your devices [20:14] yes you need to check out the sources on a pc, not on the device itself [20:15] the device itself will get wiped several times during porting, most likely [20:15] Can you take a look at the log? [20:15] no [20:15] nirajnikant was added by: nirajnikant [20:16] the halium sources are huge. you'll need probably 50GB free space to chect out, and compile what is needed [20:16] as i said, you should join @halium to discuss porting to your device [20:17] once halium is build and working you can then start porting UT and join @ubports_porting to discuss that portion [20:17] @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/tablets [20:23] @dohbee, Yeah, but I already tried to find your post and I didn't see it anymore... Too much content in here! 😁😄 [20:24] Such a script would be awesome! Please, could you repost it maybe? Thanks a lot!!! [20:25] @ignorare, if you have telegram-desktop it's in the list of files under group info [20:26] not sure if that's accessible from the telegram-app on UT though [20:29] @dohbee, oh no, I am so sorry! 😳 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... [20:30] But nevertheless, SSH-key pair would be less annoying I guess, no? [20:31] ... because not always confirmation required etc. - just connecting and go ahead. [20:32] [Edit] @dohbee, oh no, I am so sorry! 😳 Shame on me! 😁 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] [Edit] ... because not always requesting password etc. - just connecting and go ahead. [20:47] [Edit] But nevertheless, SSH-key pair would be less annoying and more comfortable I guess, no? [21:44] Welcome @nirajnikant !!! Check out https://ubports.com/page/telegram-welcome to get you up to speed [23:00] this install is killing me. I cannot for the life of me manage to reflash a 16.04 devel install on a Pro 5 [23:09] geogeigy was added by: geogeigy [23:12] @matv1, Are you using the ubports installer snap ? [23:12] nope, tried that yesterday [23:13] I have tried all the diifferent installers [23:13] that doesnt seem to be the issue [23:14] I have reverted back to ubuntu-device-flash just to get some feedback on whats wrong [23:14] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/CZP7mVcRPf/ [23:14] it just hangs on that last line [23:15] i have a feeling that the gui installers are doing the same thing [23:15]
