ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Hello01:20
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> I've a little question about that Lockdown kernel feature that is being tested.01:21
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> How exactly affects both desktop Linux and derivated works like UB ports and that other OS?01:21
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> It won't affect ubuntu touch as most supported devices don't run the latest kernel01:23
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Ok. But what when the times come for a kernel update?01:31
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> Most supported devices' kernel won't be updated due to the way android hardware works01:33
ubptgbot<dohbee> @SpecialSpac [Ok. But what when the times come for a kernel update?], When all hardware works on foss drivers01:36
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [When all hardware works on foss drivers], He's asking about the implications of the kernel lockdown feature for UT01:38
ubptgbot<dohbee> The implications are, make it work, then let's talk about it01:40
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> Lol it's already available as a dynamic module i guess01:41
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> Hmm what was the issue with electron apps on ut again?01:48
ubptgbot<dohbee> Everything01:58
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @SpecialSpac [Ok. But what when the times come for a kernel update?], simple, we use image updates, applied in bootloader, the os doesn't need to change the kernel on a phone02:55
ubptgbot<nandanrmenon> Is there any port for moto g5 plus?05:08
ubptgbot<ArubIslander> There will be if you make one.05:43
ubptgbot<NotKit> does it have msm8953?06:14
ubptgbot<hacker12455> @nandanrmenon [Is there any port for moto g5 plus?], There seems to be a port by Ben Mayo06:16
ubptgbot<nanu_c> @Fuseteam [Hmm what was the issue with electron apps on ut again?], It's better to use a qml with a webengineview that talks via websocket with the backend07:32

ubptgbot<aaldrine> Hello every one! I'm a librarian in Nantes, France. A digital freedom festival is taking place here during the first two weeks of february and we are looking for people interested in showing Ubuntu Touch to students et and persons passing by! It's going to take place every where in different cities, but my invitation is only for nantes!07:53
ubptgbotIf any one is interested let me know :) (p.s.: i'm a new user of Utouch and already a big fan!)07:53
ubptgbot<aaldrine> If you want to know more about it, here is a link: https://fdln.insa-rennes.fr/07:56

ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> hello world08:17
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> can i port ubuntu touch on asus zenphone 3 max (X008D) ?08:17
ubptgbot<TotalSonic> @Filbien Jérémy [can i port ubuntu touch on asus zenphone 3 max (X008D) ?], you should be able to - good luck -  http://docs.halium.org/en/latest/porting/first-steps.html … and http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction.html08:22
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> yes but i don't understand08:27
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> can i paid somebody for do this ?08:28
ubptgbot<pjk2012> @Filbien Jérémy [can i paid somebody for do this ?], It's a big job08:29
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> i know08:29
ubptgbot<pjk2012> It would be cheaper for you to buy one of the supported phones08:30
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> yes I think I will buy the nexus 5 but the ROM of my asus is not functional so I would like to put ubuntu touch or fix it08:31
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> but I failed to fix it08:33
ubptgbot<pjk2012> Why don't you download the latest ROM from Asus to bring the phone back to stock?08:34
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> i've try that but I did not succeed08:35
ubptgbot<pjk2012> If you cannot restore stock you're probably going to have to have a technician repair it or call it a loss.08:37
ubptgbot<Filbien Jérémy> meh08:39
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> Just buy a new supported device such as the pinephone08:50

ubptgbot<hacker12455> Right now pretty much the only way to use Discord in UT is through Anbox13:58
ubptgbot<hacker12455> The web version is terribly scaled imo13:58
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Something that has been worrying me recently is the fact some people like M. Garret are starting to questioning the freedom 0.14:15
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> If things get worse, it's just matter of forking, true?14:16
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> ?14:16
ubptgbot<dohbee> yeah, what?14:16
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Ok. Nothing, maybe my perception but I've been reading this: … https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/good-lockdown-vs-bad … And it looks in the future, they want to reduce Linux to a set of pre-approved modules.14:17
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Or maybe I'm being just paranoid14:17
ubptgbot<dohbee> well it really doesn't matter14:18
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Why?14:19
ubptgbot<dohbee> for one, we don't use UEFI on phones14:19
ubptgbot<dohbee> also, we can only use latest upstream kernel on fully open phones like pinephone/librem514:20
ubptgbot<dohbee> aside from that, if you want a truly secure system, that does zero trust, you need features like this; and if you don't want them you can simpy compile the kernel without them enabled14:21
ubptgbot<SpecialSpac> Good. Maybe I was getting a bit more panicked.14:23

ubptgbot<padraic7a> Hey, I took a look at the OTA 11 project page earlier. I am familiar with one of the issues currently in QA. Where is the appropriate place to record that it seems to be fixed?16:03
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @padraic7a [Hey, I took a look at the OTA 11 project page earlier. I am familiar with one of …], GitHub ? Or join the QA channel16:57

ubptgbot<Danfro> @padraic7a [Hey, I took a look at the OTA 11 project page earlier. I am familiar with one of …], Leave a comment at the issue. Then thers can check too and admins or the person who created the issue can close it.18:00
ubptgbot<padraic7a> 👍18:05
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> @pjk2012 [@UniversalSuperBox @wayneoutthere - you guys see this?], oui oui18:10
ubptgbot<pjk2012> Very good lol18:50
ubptgbot<Lukasz Erecinski> This is so cool I figured I'd share it on here. A complete PinePhone assembly by Martijn from Pmos https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4&v=VyeD1sfQNoM20:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> ✅ approved spam20:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> :P20:54
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Lol20:54
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I only just listened to the socks podcast. Made me smile. I take it many people have explained the throttling on the pi when voltage is low?20:54
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Didnt know there was such a thing as approved spam20:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Yes, quite20:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Marius got a better power supply and lived happily ever after20:55
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Phew.20:55
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Lol, I have a power supply for my rpi320:55
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Then a slightly less good one for the one in my daughters room20:55
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I had the same disappointment with my 3b+ and a cheap power supply. Blah blah throttling etc etc20:56
ubptgbot<Shakendo> I use mine as kodi boxes, but Im tempted to use the one in my daughters room for a android auto headunit20:57
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Don't vknow what those words mean, but I am very pleased for you. (Huge noon here)20:58
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> *noob20:58
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> See, can't even spell.20:58
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Lol, basically Im thinking about turning one into a stereo for my car20:58
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Oooh20:59
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I have a zero I want to use as a Spotify player in the garage. Sounds pretty straight forward. The car one sounds fun.21:00
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I used a metal armor case which helped loads with cooling. Then raised it up and sat it on a metal plate. Better again.21:01
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Well using a rpi for any kind of player/streamer is straight forward, the car one is a little more involved but still fairly easy, I am considering doing something to make a UT powered variant21:01
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I'm going to need another pi.21:01
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Lol, famous last words21:02
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Or two21:02
ubptgbot<Shakendo> I have 3 total, one is dead due to a lightning strike though21:02
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I really am such a noob I can't tell you but it is fun.21:02
ubptgbot<Shakendo> I might buy one to run UT on21:02
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Ouch21:02
ubptgbot<Shakendo> Eh, its just tech, it happens21:03
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I am getting an esp8266 to send a message to sons phone when doorbell rings so I don't have to go to sorting office next.21:04
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> I shall have to have a read up on it on the pi when I get a bit of time.21:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> maybe better for the overflow or pi groups ;)21:05
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Sorry, typo, *read up on UT on the pi21:05
ubptgbot<Graham Clark> Sorry21:05
