ubptgbot<Brendan> @Ajay Sahu [Good news for UB ports. and pine phone can finally find the large target market], I wish that to be true but it won't be02:05
ubptgbot<Ajay Sahu> @Brendan [I wish that to be true but it won't be], We are working on it, i am preparing a proposal and questioner for UB ports.. Last week spoke to Ricardo for the same02:07
ubptgbot<Shinkamui> does anyone know off the top of their head if halium based UT ports use system-sleep for handling the low power suspend state?02:38

ubptgbot<Shinkamui> :)02:41
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Shinkamui [does anyone know off the top of their head if halium based UT ports use system-s …], they should generally support whatever is the method of entering deep sleep yes02:43
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Ajay Sahu [Good news for UB ports. and pine phone can finally find the large target market], please don't forward random messages from others into here (especially from bots which just post articles from their own web site). India banning apps on android/ios really doesn't mean anything for UT, unfortunately. and the messages looks/feels02:46
ubptgbotlike spam02:46

ubptgbot<Shinkamui> can you give me a hint on what mechanism i should be looking at?02:47
ubptgbot<dohbee> i don't think it triggers typical traditional linux distro suspend/resume events02:49
ubptgbot<Shinkamui> well, this just got quite a bit harder than i thought it would be :-D02:50

ubptgbot<S> @dohbee [Ubuntu Touch does not use systemd yet], That was wierd considering UB touch is 16.04 and Ubuntu desktop 16.04 had systemd03:58
ubptgbot<TuxThePenguin> Systemd needs new kernel features missing from versions like 3.404:01

ubptgbot<TuxThePenguin> If they switched to systemd a ton of devices would need a bunch of kernel patches or just be completely unsupported (hopefully we can get a nice patch set together by the time UT moves to 20.04)04:02
ubptgbot<S> @TuxThePenguin [If they switched to systemd a ton of devices would need a bunch of kernel patche …], Well, atleast at this point of time, its not clear if systemd is better or worse04:03
ubptgbot<TuxThePenguin> For something like UT I'd say systemd is probably better if possible, that would mean less work to maintain since it would be the same as regular Ubuntu and UT isn't focused on being super lightweight like some other distros04:04

ubptgbot<Mister_Tails121> Hi everyone, I would like to ask what kind of telegram, YouTube and analogue programs are available on ubports?08:18
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Teleports for Telegram, Axolotl for Signal. No WhatsApp08:21
ubptgbot<Stereofont> FluffyChat for Matrix08:21
ubptgbot<Stereofont> With Webber you can make a webapp for most purposes, which may be more convenient than using the browser08:24
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Online services built for harvesting your data are not well supported 😁08:25
ubptgbot<aviwad> @Stereofont [Teleports for Telegram, Axolotl for Signal. No WhatsApp], one can use ```mautrix-whatsapp``` to run whatsapp through the Fluffy chat app, however!08:31

ubptgbot<Stereofont> @aviwad [one can use mautrix-whatsapp to run whatsapp through the Fluffy chat app, howeve …], And many other services. I think that integration is still being worked on though and generally requires a zombie android device maintaining the account08:37
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @lordhacker0727 [<reply to media>], Porting questions should be directed to @Halium group08:39
ubptgbot<Mister_Tails121> @Stereofont [Online services built for harvesting your data are not well supported 😁], Well, anyway, some kind of Youtube Vanced is much more convenient than the site (even as an application)08:43
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> Cosmetic question 😉: is there a way to configure the app scope so that it doesn't disappear? Maybe it's called dash, don't know...so like this:08:59

ubptgbot<wayneTBT> @Federica Galli [Without sliding away every time], I guess the 'sprint' app is approaching something like you are asking for.09:01
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @Bharatwaj.S [Nexus 5?], No opo09:05
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @wayneTBT [I guess the 'sprint' app is approaching something like you are asking for.], OK, thx09:05
ubptgbot<libremax> @Federica Galli [Cosmetic question 😉: is there a way to configure the app scope so that it doesn …], It's called app drawer and it's not possible to make it always visible.09:28
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @libremax [It's called app drawer and it's not possible to make it always visible.], I see. It's a pity because every time one needs to push the home button, unecessary step....09:43
ubptgbot<Steve Kueffer> @Federica Galli [I see. It's a pity because every time one needs to push the home button, unecess …], This is a new feature that was implemented in the last OTA 12 update09:48
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @Steve Kueffer [This is a new feature that was implemented in the last OTA 12 update], ah! so if i updated my phone i should be able to set that?09:53
ubptgbot<Danfro> @Federica Galli [ah! so if i updated my phone i should be able to set that?], No the drawer is new. There might be changes in the future, but first release was stability first.09:55
ubptgbot<Danfro> People alreasy asked if the launvher could go away too. I personaly would prefer your suggested behaviour.09:55
ubptgbot<Danfro> Lot discussion already happened.09:56
ubptgbot<markvesime> Federica, I think @mateosalta has a click you can install to make the drawer permanent09:56
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @Danfro [People alreasy asked if the launvher could go away too. I personaly would prefer …], i personally like both the launcher ( vertical as it is now so that a number of favorites can fit there) and the app drawer if it doesn’t slide away.09:58
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @markvesime [Federica, I think @mateosalta has a click you can install to make the drawer per …], 👍09:59
ubptgbot<Danfro> @Federica Galli [i personally like both the launcher ( vertical as it is now so that a number of …], Yes. And ideally the option to arrange the icons in my prefered order. But we will see how the drawer will evolve during the next couple of months.10:28
ubptgbot<aviwad> @Stereofont [And many other services. I think that integration is still being worked on thoug …], true11:14
ubptgbot<tkkay> so... what's the situation with anbox? been out of the loop for a while12:21
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> @Federica Galli [I see. It's a pity because every time one needs to push the home button, unecess …], I'm a bit confused, because you dont need to press the super button to use the drawer or launcher bar … If you do a small swipe from left to right, you get the launcher bar with all your pinned and open apps. … If you do a long12:26
ubptgbotswipe from left to right, you get the launcher bar, and the app drawer.12:26
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> I'm also confused about what people mean when they say "It'd be nice if it doesn't slide away", because surely that would mean that you wouldn't be able to use any apps at all, because the app drawer is open.12:28
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> @Rcmaehl [<reply to media>], No way, have you been using it?12:29
ubptgbot<mymike00> @PhoenixLandPirate [I'm also confused about what people mean when they say "It'd be nice if it doesn …], doing a long left to right swipe is the same as pressing the BFB (the button with ubuntu's logo) … I think she wants the drawer always open when there are no apps opened :)12:32
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @PhoenixLandPirate [I'm also confused about what people mean when they say "It'd be nice if it doesn …], yes, same sentiments. I guess it's not easy to discover the long swipes and short swipes. The initial tutorial should be updated with short and long swipes12:32
ubptgbot<mymike00> @Javacookies [yes, same sentiments. I guess it's not easy to discover the long swipes and shor …], I think it already does, doesn't it?12:33
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I don't think it explicitly tell the user to do short/ling swipes on both sides12:34
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> @mymike00 [doing a long left to right swipe is the same as pressing the BFB (the button wit …], Yeah I know the logo button does the same/similar thing, but when she said it was an extra step, I thought "Wait, but it doesn't have to be, just keep going" kinda thing, but it makes sense when we're talking about a empty background.12:34
ubptgbot<mymike00> Ah sorry, you already know it ☺️. yeah the discussion was on empty background, indeed...12:35
ubptgbot<PhoenixLandPirate> Unless I'm coming from a fresh boot, I always have an app or 2 in the background, so that screen I don't think about for more than a few seconds on the accession :')12:36
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @PhoenixLandPirate [I'm also confused about what people mean when they say "It'd be nice if it doesn …], what I mean is that it would be nice to have the app drawer always open AND to be able to get to the running apps by swiping AND to have the launcher. The "empty" desktop looks too much like a deskop PC to me ;) Also, when loggi12:46
ubptgbotng in it's handy to be able to see the app drawer right away, together with the launcher with the favorite apps. At least, this is the way i'd prefer.12:46
=== ben{}_ is now known as ben{}
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> on this topic, you reminded me about a design thing that I haven't had time to file... i feel that the search field that is currently at the top of the drawer should be moved to the bottom near the ubuntu button.  This prevents having to reach up to quickly search an app (In my opinion).  Any reason why this could not be done?13:19
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> it ultimately allows one hand operation actually instead of requiring the other hand to tap the search field.13:20
ubptgbot<Shinkamui> @S [That was wierd considering UB touch is 16.04 and Ubuntu desktop 16.04 had system …], systemd is present on UT, the events are just not triggering, so it seems he is correct, at least in the sense that systemd isn't used for the PM and other system events handling13:23
ubptgbot<Shinkamui> sucks though, because now Im digging through documentation with no trace so far of anything helping me figure out what to do next13:23
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @wayneoutthere [it ultimately allows one hand operation actually instead of requiring the other …], I have the same idea and even had some design prototypes for that. Putting the search field at the bottom should also mean the layout direction of the app grid should also be reversed. It kinda make sense since the launcher is inverted13:34
ubptgbotas well anyway.13:34
ubptgbot<Javacookies> Another option I though is dragging the app list will focus the search field but recently pull to refresh was added although I believe it's a temporary thing13:35
ubptgbot<Federica Galli> @wayneoutthere [on this topic, you reminded me about a design thing that I haven't had time to f …], good point.13:36
ubptgbot<Rebecca58> 🤚 do you know if if it is possible to pick up a call from your PC instead of your device ? I would love to make phone calls from my PC and not to be disturbed every 5-minutes by smartphone13:36
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> @Javacookies [Another option I though is dragging the app list will focus the search field but …], yes! this is a good idea and I also wondered why the focus didn't go to the search field by default. that would solve the same thing good point13:41
ubptgbot<wayneoutthere> @Rebecca58 [🤚 do you know if if it is possible to pick up a call from your PC instead of yo …], Linphone?13:41
ubptgbot<Rebecca58> @wayneoutthere [Linphone?], No from a nexus 5 with Ubuntu touch13:42
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @wayneoutthere [yes! this is a good idea and I also wondered why the focus didn't go to the sear …], auto focusing the search field would be too much I think. Not everytime you open the drawer you want to search and showing the OSK can be distracting13:43

ubptgbot<dohbee> @Shinkamui [sucks though, because now Im digging through documentation with no trace so far …], what are you trying to do exactly?13:47
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Rebecca58 [🤚 do you know if if it is possible to pick up a call from your PC instead of yo …], it is not currently13:47
ubptgbot<febriugg> @Willem-Jan de Hoog [well I have it. don't use it much. why?], What OS are you using? UT or sailfish OS13:48

ubptgbot<Willem-Jan de Hoog> why do you ask me these questions?13:52
ubptgbot<febriugg> @Willem-Jan de Hoog [why do you ask me these questions?], I guess you stopped supporting SFOS for OPO because your phone was broken, it didn't13:57
ubptgbot<Willem-Jan de Hoog> oh ok. no I lost interest but I did build 3.3 a few weeks ago13:58
ubptgbot<Rebecca58> @dohbee [it is not currently], Oh what a shame! 😞13:58
ubptgbot<febriugg> @Willem-Jan de Hoog [oh ok. no I lost interest but I did build 3.3 a few weeks ago], Yes, I have installed the latest SFOS for OPO. and do you now work for UT14:06
