ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Is Sumsung Galaxy compatable with UT?00:10
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @Vlad Mirson [Is Sumsung Galaxy compatable with UT?], Please see the supported devices in the group description00:11
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> I saw this list.00:12
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Vlad Mirson [Is Sumsung Galaxy compatable with UT?], Well officially it is not compatible, but there are a couple ports for various galaxy devices in varying stages01:38
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Vlad Mirson [Is Sumsung Galaxy compatable with UT?], [Edit] Well officially it is not supported, but there are a couple ports for various galaxy devices in varying stages01:38

ubptgbot<kishini> hi, would you like to know if Anbox works correctly in UT?03:29
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @kishini [hi, would you like to know if Anbox works correctly in UT?], Are you asking us if we want to know , or are you asking cause you want to know?04:02
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i presume the latter04:02
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I would to, but better to ask to make sure04:03
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i suppose04:03
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> For all we know they tested it and just want to see if we're interested in feedback04:03
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i guess that's possible04:05
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Improppable, but possible04:05
ubptgbot<kishini> @Tygerpro [Are you asking us if we want to know , or are you asking cause you want to know?], Thw second04:07
ubptgbot<kishini> @Tygerpro [Are you asking us if we want to know , or are you asking cause you want to know?], [Edit] The second04:07
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> in that case the answer is that anbox is experimental and thus is not ready for daily use04:08
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Yay, I got a bootloop on this note 4 ... stupid locked bootloaders04:08
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> yay04:09
ubptgbot<kishini> @Fuseteam [in that case the answer is that anbox is experimental and thus is not ready for …], OK, tks04:09
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Gah, I deleted the file I need, dang it04:12
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I downgraded it from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1, and downgraded the bootloader to a unlockable one, soft brick to realize I deleted the downgrade firmware, ugh this stinks04:14
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> grrr04:26
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Exactly, I seriously need a better laptop, the one Im using only has a 32GB eMMC with no upgrade option :(04:31
Fuseteamdang :/04:42
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Yeah, my server is doing all the heavy lifting, my laptop is just a dumb terminal with storage for personal files badically05:30
ubptgbot<noisebro> @Tygerpro [Exactly, I seriously need a better laptop, the one Im using only has a 32GB eMMC …], Which one is that?10:40

ubptgbot<Guido> Hi guys, I've tested libertine on the hammerhead edge channel. The display output is pretty much distorted. Is this a known issue? Is this a problem of the edge channel or the current libertine state in general?12:59
ubptgbot<dohbee> edge13:00
ubptgbot<Guido> Okay, thanks. Will it work in devel?13:00
ubptgbot<dohbee> i presume so13:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> or it could just be the app you're using. it was working ok on edge on my nexus 4 last i tried it.13:01
ubptgbot<Guido> Do you know the reason for this issue?13:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> well there's a new mir in edge, so probably related to that13:02
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @Guido [Hi guys, I've tested libertine on the hammerhead edge channel. The display outpu …], there's an open issue for that and there's a workaround although it's quite hard to do 😅 … if you're on windowed mode, you can resize the app and the display will work in certain sizes.13:02
ubptgbot<Guido> I've tried mate-terminal as well as libreoffice, both not working.13:02
ubptgbot<Guido> Okay, thanks for your help. I'll will try to find the workaround and see if I can handle it. 😉13:03
ubptgbot<Guido> I've checked windowed mode and yes, it works for some window sizes. At least one way to go. 😊13:06
ubptgbot<Guido> Thanks @Javacookies !13:06
ubptgbot<Javacookies> wow I'm surprised you quickly found a certain size that worked 😁13:07
ubptgbot<Guido> Well, in my case, it seems that up to a certain window height, it works without any issue.13:10
ubptgbot<Guido> Above that height, independent of the width, it doesn't work.13:17
ubptgbot<Guido> I remember that depending on the app (GTK or QT), the onscreen keyboard was working or not and as far as I remember, the OSK has been working for the mate-terminal previously. However, now it doesn't. Is there a way to force the OSK to open and stay open?13:32
ubptgbot<Guido> BTW, i really like that Xapps are shown together with the Click apps on the Dash! 😊13:34
ubptgbot<Guido> Great job!13:34

ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Hmm, interesting, in the process of unlocking the bootloader, the sd card became a bootloop card ... very interesting13:54

ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Javacookies [there's an open issue for that and there's a workaround although it's quite hard …], wow, this is huge! thank you! at least I can see something now lol15:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Vlad Mirson [I have 2 questions about drivers for my Nexus 5: … 1. Does UT Installer install An …], there is a minimal android running in a container. it is required for the hardware to work. the proprietary blobs may have been written by google or the manufacturers of chips.15:35
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @Guido [I've tried mate-terminal as well as libreoffice, both not working.], Abiword and Gnumeric work ok for me in Libertine.15:36
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> I understand that it is required for the hardware, but does anybody test it?15:36
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @TotalSonic [Abiword and Gnumeric work ok for me in Libertine.], sadly it doesnt work anymore on the nexus 515:39
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> the only app that is working nowadays is GIMP15:39
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @Vlad Mirson [I understand that it is required for the hardware, but does anybody test it?], I believe @UniversalSuperBox tested to see how much a UT device "phoned home" relative to the same device on Android - and found the only streams were to the the UT push notification server.  Maybe he can confirm or disconfirm this for us.15:39
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Many of you, guys, use UT kust for fun (you, probably, have lot's of free time), I forced to use UT just bacause I need cyber security. Our company is going to letigate with Google, so I really need to be sure that all these INCONVINIECES with UT are worth it.15:39
ubptgbot<dohbee> @TotalSonic [I believe @UniversalSuperBox tested to see how much a UT device "phoned home" re …], that's only in userspace15:40
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Sorry for my poor English.15:40
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @dohbee [that's only in userspace], ok, thanks for correcting that15:40
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> [Edit] Many of you, guys, use UT just for fun (you, probably, have lot's of free time), I forced to use UT just bacause I need cyber security. Our company is going to letigate with Google, so I really need to be sure that all these INCONVINIECES with UT are worth it.15:40
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @Vlad Mirson [Sorry for my poor English.], If your attackers are so advanced, the only safe data is airgapped.15:41
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Meaning: Your attackers have inside knowledge of the system you are trying to protect, no matter how small their internal knowledge, it is likely too great a risk.15:41
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Vlad Mirson [Many of you, guys, use UT just for fun (you, probably, have lot's of free time), …], you are welcome to hire a firm with the tools to test for such things, but it's not really something we can do15:41
ubptgbot<dohbee> at least not that we can do easily15:42
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @Vlad Mirson [Many of you, guys, use UT just for fun (you, probably, have lot's of free time), …], I use UT as my daily driver (for 10 months running) and depend on it for my own business - so not just for "fun" - and found it offers lots of options to be able to cut dependcies on Google services -  but as far as a hardened OS designed15:43
ubptgbot for cyber security it is still far from optimal15:43
ubptgbot<Flohack> @dohbee [you are welcome to hire a firm with the tools to test for such things, but it's …], Plus we cannot provide any audits that you would need got get the full assurance of this kind of safety.15:43
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> @malditobastardo [sadly it doesnt work anymore on the nexus 5], Gnumeric is working on my Nexus 5, but not Abiword.15:44
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Dalton, when you are speaking about my attackets who do you mean?15:44
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> You say your expected attacker is Google15:45
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Do you know that thsi wonderful company  - Don't be Evil hacked iPhones of all our managment?15:45
ubptgbot<dohbee> no, but this is not the right place to make a claim as such15:45
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I respect the sentiment but I will not take it at face value. I don't believe Ubuntu Touch is the operating system for your needs.15:46
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Not yet.15:46
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> @TotalSonic [I use UT as my daily driver (for 10 months running) and depend on it for my own …], GrapheneOS might have the hardening he's looking for.15:46
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I also don't need to know any more details of this alleged breach, and giving that information in public could make your case weaker.15:47
ubptgbot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox [I also don't need to know any more details of this alleged breach, and giving th …], anything based on any android device probably is not15:47
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> @UniversalSuperBox [I also don't need to know any more details of this alleged breach, and giving th …], Right. A judge might call it tainting the jury pool.15:48
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Your best bet is to find yourself a good lawyer and do everything they tell you to do, not what random people on the internet do. I don't believe we have any more expertise for your situation15:49
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> 👍🏼15:49
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> Good grief! The emoji went supersize!15:50
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> I understood, Dalton. Our company will defenetly hire lawyer and not just one. But security there working enviroment is on ME. I don't want them to use MS Word, or OS X, or iOS. I don't want Google to know what we (our Company) and our lawyers are doing.15:52
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @Vlad Mirson [Sorry for my poor English.], your English is very good - no need for apologies!15:52
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Vlad Mirson [Many of you, guys, use UT just for fun (you, probably, have lot's of free time), …], and that is 99% true15:53
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @Vlad Mirson [I understood, Dalton. Our company will defenetly hire lawyer and not just one. B …], You are looking for very unique software that will cost you either a very large sum of money or a very large sum of convenience. You may wish to engage a contractor that specializes in this kind of work15:53
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> You're talking about much larger problems than a bunch of volunteers on the internet will be able to help with.15:54
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @John (Marlin) [Gnumeric is working on my Nexus 5, but not Abiword.], yeah - I have only tested on OnePlus One and Meizu Pro 5 - weird how some of these libertine compatibilities are device specific15:54
ubptgbot<dohbee> TBH the "can't trust anything" ideology is not going to get you very far with using modern technology15:54
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> So, I am not the Edward Snowden, I don't need to hide info from everybody (for example I really believe that Goverment has right to hack citizens devices to protect the NATION) my task is to prevent leaking information to Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple.15:54
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @John (Marlin) [Gnumeric is working on my Nexus 5, but not Abiword.], I was on stable then I jumped again on edge and nothing is working only GIMP I may have to recreate the container it seems or this is a problem related to the edge channel15:55
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Maybe Microsoft.15:55
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Vlad Mirson [So, I am not the Edward Snowden, I don't need to hide info from everybody (for e …], https://t.me/UBportsOF15:56
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @malditobastardo [I was on stable then I jumped again on edge and nothing is working only GIMP I m …], yeah, apparently Edge is breaking lots of things in libertine - I am RC only here15:56
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> So - just clear Linux (I prefer Debian) every where, limited number of applications on devices (only open source, of course), Firefox for daily serfing with Badger and HTTPS Everywher and Tor.15:57
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> These will be enough to achive my goal - not to be leaked to these 5.15:58
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> @malditobastardo [I was on stable then I jumped again on edge and nothing is working only GIMP I m …], I've kept the same container from stable to devel to rc ota-10. Same behavior on all.15:58
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @Vlad Mirson [So, I am not the Edward Snowden, I don't need to hide info from everybody (for e …], Yep, we understand fully. Still, what I believe you are looking for is an audited, signed, PYA guarantee that none of your data will reach those parties — we aren't in the position to provide that right now. We trust the privacy of15:58
ubptgbot our own operating system, but for your situation I would not be signing a paper that said that.15:58
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Dalton, thanks for telling me that again.15:59
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Someone told me here that you conduct some "call" experiments with UT.15:59
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> How did you implement this test?16:00
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Did you install something like Little Snich?16:00
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> It was nothing so advanced, only modem statistics. If you'd like to conduct a more thorough test, you would need to place a packet sniffer between the phone's network connection and the internet16:00
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> I know there is no good network/firewall software for even desktop Linux's.16:00
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> A third party packet sniffer, mind. If you are this serious about auditing, you cannot trust software on the device to tell you the device is safe.16:01
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Packet Sniffer - I will search about that. Thanks.16:01
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Wireshark is the most commonly used16:02
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Thanks, Dalton very uch for the advise.16:02
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> And if you are trying to be very careful, you may also want a radio capable of listening in on GSM and LTE frequencies. This will cost you considerable money, but will allow you to listen to the radio transmissions of the device. … It should be noted that the radio is an entire proprietary operating system that runs on the devic16:03
ubptgbote's main CPU to control the software-defined radio. It has full access to all device hardware and memory.16:03
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Wow radio?16:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> the baseband modem16:04
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Yes. Any software-defined GSM and LTE modem on the market today will have such firmware.16:05
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> (That's all of them)16:05
ubptgbotmuhajir_s was added by: muhajir_s16:05
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> On phone hardware, the firmware shares the main CPU.16:05
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Wow.16:06
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> There is little hope for a fully (third-party) auditable GSM and LTE modem in the forseeable future. If you are at the point of requiring that audit, you will not be able to trust any mobile hardware.16:07
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Since the software which runs on baseband processors is usually proprietary, it is impossible to perform an independent code audit. By reverse engineering some of the baseband chips, researchers have found security vulnerabilities that could be used to access and modify data on the phone remotely.[1][2] In March 2014, makers of the fr16:07
ubptgbotee Android derivative Replicant announced they have found a backdoor in the baseband software of Samsung Galaxy phones that allows remote access to the user data stored on the phone.[3]16:07
ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> From Wikipedia.16:07
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Indeed.16:07
ubptgbot<dohbee> @UniversalSuperBox [There is little hope for a fully (third-party) auditable GSM and LTE modem in th …], if one is at the point of "i cannot trust any proprietary firmware" then one cannot trust any modern technology really16:07

ubptgbot<Vlad Mirson> Thanks, guys. For now I am leaving you. Will search, will think.16:10
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> the fact that UT devices are not encrypted (at least without a lot of hacking) meaning that anyone that gets hold of them physically can likely access the data on theem also means UT is not a good choice for hardened security needs yet.16:12

ubptgbot<TotalSonic> [Edit] the fact that UT devices are not encrypted (at least without a lot of hacking) meaning that anyone that gets hold of them physically can likely access the data on them also means UT is not a good choice for hardened security needs yet.16:13
ubptgbot<dohbee> nexus 5 is also vulnerable to firmware issues which won't be fixed because it is no longer supported by google/lg.16:13
ubptgbot<dohbee> (as are other devices, to varying degrees)16:14
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> thanks to the UBports team for the great update to the Weather app and for the smaller but useful update to the Gallery app!  Will being able to indepedently choose Dark theme be added to Gallery app next, now that it can follow system theme?16:31
ubptgbot<John (Marlin)> To get larger fonts I tried to set higher scaling values in UT Tweak Tool, but I found anything larger than the default 28 makes the display expand to larger than the screen such that things on the right margin start getting cut off. In Android Acessibility options allow both the font size and display size to be adjusted.16:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> ok16:37
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Ubuntu Touch OTA-10 is currently delayed due to "Google account key change invalidates authentication, can't sign back in" (https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1191).

I deleted my 2 google accounts and then added them again. I could went throught the autorisation process (for ubuntu application) and I was then able17:06
ubptgbot to sync calendar and contacts again.17:06
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Yes, it is good that it can be worked around17:07
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> But that's not an acceptable workaround, sync-monitor-helper should be fixed if this is going to be a larger issue17:07
ubptgbot<RedXXIII> Then I have done the same exact thing for my E5 on devel. The only difference is that outorisation process is asked for ubports application. But it works the same.17:07
ubptgbot<RedXXIII> Finally I tried with my M10 FHD on devel by I couldn't because "autorisation were already granted to ubports application". It just works one time for a single device ?17:09

ubptgbot<Nithin Padavu> I dont know how exactly it works or if it is even possible. When a file downloads and internet connection is lost is it possible to set it to pause mode instead of download failed. So once internet is back the download can be resumed.18:24
ubptgbot<Guido> @malditobastardo [the only app that is working nowadays is GIMP], Strange, in my case, i.e., Nexus 5 on Edge, Gimp shows the same display issues than mate-terminal (see screenshot below). Libreoffice, Gnumeric et al. are not launching at all.20:07

ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> I'm trying to stream PS Vita video via USB with a special plugin for the system, but I suspect the problem is that the tablet won't recognise the system's USB fingerprint (lsusb shows nothing besides the hub device I'm using).20:15

ubptgbot<dohbee> i mean, it's not a suitable replacement for a proper production audio system20:25
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> ah i suppose that makes sense20:25
ubptgbot<dohbee> probably not, midi-over-usb is pretty standard (as is osc iirc), so drivers are probably not the issue20:25
ubptgbotAIIoT C was added by: AIIoT C20:26
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> soo how trivial would it be to enable midi mode?20:26
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [soo how trivial would it be to enable midi mode?], plug in a keyboard i guess?20:26
ubptgbot<dohbee> and then write an app that finds the keyboard and reads midi events, and plays back audio20:27
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> I'm considering installing special EXFAT libraries to be able to mount the Vita as USB storage (not if they're too big), but that probably won't help this issue. Sadly the M10's kernel is probably too primitive to allow lsusb to point out the console.20:27
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> so no special usb mode needed.......interesting20:28
ubptgbot<dohbee> i don't know. but i mean, plug in a keyboard and see if it's recognized by the kernel20:29
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> guess i first would need to figure out if i can detect a keyboard20:29
ubptgbot<dohbee> or get a bluetooth one20:29
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> lsusb i presume20:29
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> In general this feels like a "laptop is more cutting edge for the envisaged task" scenario, even though a tablet is smaller, more portable and perhaps theoretically better in general for it.20:29
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [or get a bluetooth one], a bluetooth electronic keyboard? wut?20:29
ubptgbot<dohbee> or maybe not, since they might require some proprietary thing to pair or something20:30
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> this is mind boggling lol20:31
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [i don't know. but i mean, plug in a keyboard and see if it's recognized by the k …], i presume lsusb?20:31
ubptgbot<TartanSpartan> (and PSTV is a home console version of Vita and cheaper so it's sort of redundant anyway... lol, but not in the sense that some software isn't compatible with the PSTV)20:31
ubptgbot<dohbee> sure, or dmesg20:31
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> alrighty20:31

For some reason Soundcloud defaulted to #50 Men in the Middle. Enjoyed it very much. Seems like in forums I noticed at least some of these are available in video versions. I20:40
ubptgbot'll have to look more into it.20:40
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> The Audiocast is a mostly unscheduled discussion show about the community, the software, and the world around it. The Q&A is a fortnightly video show about the development of Ubuntu Touch and our community's questions.20:42

ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> hello, got issues installing ubuntu touch on a nexus 5, can someone help?22:29
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Whats the issue?22:29
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> i'm going through manual steps because the installer doesn't work (i'm on windows and the device is running custom android ROM atm). i made it all the way to the step where i have to push a bunch of files through adb while the ubuntu recovery is running22:30
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> after doing that, when i reboot the device, the "updating system" screen shows up for like 2 seconds and goes back to menu22:30
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> i guess something went wrong since rebooting the device doesn't boot ubuntu, it's just stuck at google22:30
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Ok, try using an older version of the installer, I dont know what the current version is but try going down one version22:31
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> i'd rather finish the manual steps tbh22:31
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> can i even try the installer anymore now that i cannot boot to android? where do i find the older installer?22:32
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Ok, well if you insist on manually doing it, try pushing the files again and maybe even download them, you can try it again, just boot to bootloader, and manually select the device to install22:33

ubptgbot<dohbee> @glodomorrapl [can i even try the installer anymore now that i cannot boot to android? where do …], Installer doesn't need to have Android on the device. Make sure you aren't using encryption in Android though, as that breaks things22:33
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> i see no errors here, gonna try and reboot agian22:33
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> i'm not using encryption22:33
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> still no results22:34
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> ok where do i get the older installer then22:34
hallynall right, maybe if i see ubtouch running on nexus 5, i'll be more motivated to get it running on experia x.  maybe i'll buy one of those on ebay after all.22:35
ubptgbot<Rondarius> Did you reboot to the bootloader?22:35
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> yes, typed 'adb reboot recovery' in command prompt22:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> @hallyn [all right, maybe if i see ubtouch running on nexus 5, i'll be more motivated to …], There's a port in progress for that, btw22:36
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases/tag/0.2.3-beta22:36
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> 0.2.3-beta is what i already tried, didn't work22:36
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @glodomorrapl [0.2.3-beta is what i already tried, didn't work], I posted wrong link, try here  … https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases22:37
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> even though i clearly have adb and fastboot installed, and drivers are working, when i pick the device and the installer asks me to go into bootloader, nothing happens22:37
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> lemme try again22:37
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> wait now it's detecting it when i'm in ubuntu recovery22:38
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> can i proceed from here just fine?22:38
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Just unplug it then plug it back in on bootloader for the installer, I doubt the installer will work from ubuntu recovery22:39
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> (Photo, 786x593) https://irc.ubports.com/GhXaddeW.png22:40
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> there's progress22:40
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> too bad it's downloading all the stuff i already downloaded again22:40
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> on my metered connection :/22:40
ubptgbot<mateosalta> i think it stores what was downloaded22:40
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> yeh but i downloaded the files manually when doing manual steps22:41
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> if the installer could ask for a folder of already downloaded files that'd be great tbh22:41
ubptgbot<mateosalta> oh22:41
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> hey it's "installing update" now, progress bois22:43
hallyndohbee: yeah, I've look at it (a few weeks ago) and coudln't get it to build, though admittedly on a newer ubuntu release22:43
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> would be cool to recheck and fix the manual instructions tbh22:43
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Im guessing its prob a corrupted file22:44
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> isn't it supposed to check the checksums for those22:45
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> it was all "OK" in my case22:45
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> The installer does, the manual doesnt until it goes to install them22:45
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> what do you mean it doesn't22:46
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> one of the lines from the initial part of the manual:  … wget https://system-image.ubports.com//pool/ubports-420bfa80c833e7736e0197d969b5cd981f18eee1215ad3bfae6d82aab9105f03.tar.xz -O pool/ubports-420bfa80c833e7736e0197d969b5cd981f18eee1215ad3bfae6d82aab9105f03.tar.xz && (echo "a959960b307d565d6352e47b8bc9514a2d40ccefc26a7271adf1a71c22:46

ubptgbot<Tygerpro> The installer checks the MD5 iirc after its downloaded22:46
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> sha256sum -c seems pretty checking for me22:46
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I never really use the manual instructions, I havent used the installer in awhile either tbh22:47
ubptgbot<Zak39> Hello everyone :-) … I find a tablet Nexus 7 for 30€ or 50€. Do you think it works with Ubport ? … I would like to test for programing :-)22:47
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Zak39 [Hello everyone :-) … I find a tablet Nexus 7 for 30€ or 50€. Do you think it work …], These are the supported devices … https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/22:48
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> either way, looks like the installer worked, we ubuntu now yay22:48
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> no need for android anymore since nexus 5 is now my backup device at most22:49
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> Enjoy your new UT device22:49
ubptgbot<glodomorrapl> thanks22:49
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> I have a N5, I need to update it, and Im working on a port for another device, its very far from done22:49

ubptgbot<Taim010> how to install it on Huawei p smart22:56
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Taim010 [how to install it on Huawei p smart], You can't22:57
ubptgbot<Tygerpro> @Taim010 [how to install it on Huawei p smart], Its not a supported device atm so you would need to port it (if it meets the requirements) or wait for someone else too (if someone does)22:59
hallyndohbee: so instead of buliding my own i'll just try the pre-existing binraies first, per https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1669/ubuntu-touch-on-sony-xperia-x/10 .  but that points me to23:20

hallyni figured it might've moved on to at least bionic :)23:24
hallynoh but unity was dropped there, wasn't it23:25
hallyni see xenial-rootfs, but not xenial-edge-rootfs23:26
