ubptgbot<eighty_seven> It is more that you exchange some CPU cycles plus a bit of your (really fast) internal memory. And in return you get in-ram (compressed) SWAP space which is still pretty fast.07:37
ubptgbot<eighty_seven> And it improves system stability in some cases , since processes\ are killed when out of RAM/SWAP.07:39
ubptgbot<eighty_seven> It is not a silver bullet, using it wrongly may slow down your system too.07:39

ubptgbot<Kent Johansen> With the new Linux kernel 5.8 that has support for snapdragon 865, will we see more ubuntu touch for newer devices?09:37
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> there's no devices for ubuntu touch that run mainline on a qualcom chip09:48
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> so maybe in 3-ish years if the postmarketOS crew gets there09:48
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> the qualcom-based phones that run ubuntu touch use Halium, which means android kernel + libhybris09:48
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> because even if the kernel can run there, that doesn't mean there's drivers for everything else (modem, gpu, wifi, bluetooth, etc etc)09:50
ubptgbot<Kent Johansen> Thank you09:54
ubptgbot<Javacookies> yeah I wish it's as simple as that but sadly it's not...09:57

ubptgbot<Kent Johansen> Has there been any attempt to create a program to somewhat automate porting to new devices be providing a correct set of files? Porting seems to be very manual and labour intensive, which almost makes it impossible to keep up with an ever increasing types of devices coming to market10:31

ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> if lineageOS can't do it on android, what makes you think we'd be able to do it crossing a much bigger gap?10:54
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> @rogieroudshoorn [if lineageOS can't do it on android, what makes you think we'd be able to do it …], Its not that big gap actually11:08
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> On halium 9 it is matter of running kernel config checker in some cases11:08
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> For example on xiaomi-daisy11:08
ubptgbot<Omer Ori> Is there a way to initiate a secret chat on teleports? I can't find the option...11:15
ubptgbot<dave1152000> @mateosalta [ok, pay yourself to a diffrent address, then when it ammounts something transfer …], Sailfish disappeared, Pesbuk and Twitter not working. Only able to get to login screen with Onion browser. Is it just a FP2 fault or general?11:16
ubptgbot<matv1> @dave1152000 [Sailfish disappeared, Pesbuk and Twitter not working. Only able to get to login …], I assume you meant to say Sailbook instead of Sailfish11:19
ubptgbot<dave1152000> @matv1 [I assume you meant to say Sailbook instead of Sailfish], Yes Sailbook - my mistake11:22
ubptgbot<matv1> I still get a login screen for fb on Morph browser11:23
ubptgbot<dave1152000> I just get a Network error11:25
ubptgbot<matv1> Sailbook also still does work if you have the click. But i seems to have been removed from OpsenStore. Appearantly the old maintainer decided he didnt want to do it anymore. Someone else needs to take that on11:25
ubptgbot<matv1> ah hang on. I am on edge channel on this phone. So it will probably be telated to QtWebEngine which is too old in stable channel11:27
ubptgbot<matv1> sorry11:27
ubptgbot<dave1152000> OK will try changing channel and see what happens11:27
ubptgbot<matv1> you could try switching to edge (or maybe devel; I am not sure where the newer QtWebEngine has landed)11:27
ubptgbot<matv1> disclaimer: you realise that edge channel is called that for a reason right 😉 ?11:28
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> @mrcyjanek [For example on xiaomi-daisy], Is that really fully functional?11:29
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> @rogieroudshoorn [Is that really fully functional?], Ask @gizlu, but I think thay yes11:29
ubptgbot<dave1152000> Yes I'll try Dev first then Edge if that doesn't work.11:29
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> @rogieroudshoorn [Is that really fully functional?], [Edit] Ask @gizlu, but I think that yes11:30
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> @mrcyjanek [Ask @gizlu, but I think that yes], hmmk, i'm actually tempted to buy a newer oneplus and try it out then11:30
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> @rogieroudshoorn [hmmk, i'm actually tempted to buy a newer oneplus and try it out then], I recomment oneplus 6t c: it already have a working port11:30
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> I daily drive it11:30
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> tempting - but no video out and no headphone jack on that one right?11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Nah11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Ita fully working11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Except sim 1 slot and flashlight11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> The second one have pending fix11:31
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> i meant hardware wise11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> [Edit] Its fully working11:31
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Oh11:32
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Then yes11:32
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Not sure about first one, never checked that.11:32
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> But for audio out i have usb c to jack11:32
ubptgbot<matv1> @dave1152000 [Yes I'll try Dev first then Edge if that doesn't work.], Cool! Please report back your findings. That will be helpfull to thers.11:33
ubptgbot<matv1> @dave1152000 [Yes I'll try Dev first then Edge if that doesn't work.], [Edit] Cool! Please report back your findings. That will be helpfull to others.11:34
ubptgbot<matv1> [Edit] ah hang on. I am on edge channel on this phone. So it will probably be related to QtWebEngine which is too old in stable channel11:37
ubptgbot<matv1> @mrcyjanek [I recomment oneplus 6t c: it already have a working port], So why arnt phones like the 6t and that xiami not added to de devices page if they are that far along?11:39
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> Because nobody is merging my pull requests11:39
ubptgbot<matv1> ah11:40
ubptgbot<mrcyjanek> I'm not even making a pr for xiaomi-pine11:40
ubptgbot<matv1> nobody wants to put their name down as device maintainer? Is that the issue?11:40
ubptgbot<matv1> anyway, what ever the issue, I am sorry to hear that your contribs are not being put to use :(11:42
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> +111:43
ubptgbot<rogieroudshoorn> on a side note, this has to be the worst pun of the year https://ubports.com/shop/product/ubports-t-shirt-may-the-source-16#attr=512:00
ubptgbot<jedi2light> But Ubuntu is not source-based :D12:01
ubptgbot<dave1152000> @matv1 [Cool! Please report back your findings. That will be helpfull to others.], Yes. Looks like you were right. They both work now I'm on the Dev channel.12:07
ubptgbot<matv1> Excelent. Thnx for the feedback. The browser backend upgrade seems to work realy well12:10
ubptgbotRaül was added by: Raül12:16
ubptgbot<dave1152000> @matv1 [Cool! Please report back your findings. That will be helpfull to others.], Stopped working again after i turned UAdBlock back on. I then turned UadBlock off again but still won't work.12:47
ubptgbot<matv1> mh12:51
ubptgbot<matv1> even after a reboot?12:51
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @dave1152000 [Stopped working again after i turned UAdBlock back on. I then turned UadBlock of …], then it's an issue with uadblock, careful with the lists selection12:52

ubptgbot<dave1152000> @malditobastardo [then it's an issue with uadblock, careful with the lists selection], Have turned UadBlock off but still not working. Does it leave something in the hosts file?13:20
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I realy feel like it has something to with your location and that's why it works in Onion browser. Wonder though if clearing cache/cookies can fix your issue13:33
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Javacookies [I realy feel like it has something to with your location and that's why it works …], onion browser does everything over tor though, so uadblock is irrelevant for it i think13:43
ubptgbot<dohbee> but maybe i'm wrong13:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> @jedi2light [But Ubuntu is not source-based :D], it's built from source, yes13:45
cfengineuserCan I get some help building ubports for pinephone?14:21
cfengineusertrying to follow readme14:21
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Which readme14:26
ubptgbot<Elias> Hi, I'm trying to mount the folders of my synology NAS on UT with the smb protocol, so I edited the /etc/fstab file and I launched the classic mounting of all network folders, but obviously an error was sent back to me to tell me that some packets are missing for the cifs protocol to be recognized https://i.imgur.com/GQtzQ46.png … so before14:28
ubptgbot installing the packages I would like to know if there is a risk of damaging the installation after the different package installations?14:28
ubptgbot<dohbee> the kernel doesn't have cifs support enabled i'm guessing; but afaik you should be able to mount samba shares directly in filemanager app14:30
ubptgbot<Elias> @dohbee All right, how do I do this?14:32
ubptgbot<dohbee> i'm not sure exactly. i just remember support for smb being added to filemanager app at some point before canonical dropped everything14:33
cfengineuserUniversalSuperBox the one in git for building ubports14:34
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> cfengineuser, could you please send a link14:35
cfengineuserhttps://gitlab.com/ubports/core/rootfs-builder-debos14:39
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Okay. What are you having trouble with?14:39
cfengineuserok i think i have docker installed14:39
cfengineuserits on a differnt machine14:40
cfengineuserthe last part in the readme, about"Running"14:40
cfengineuserI just don't understand the order of steps14:40
cfengineuser./run.sh DEBOS_PARAMETERS <-- where do i run this14:41
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Oh. There is no run.sh script. Use the debos-docker script as noted at the top of the readme.14:41
cfengineuserok14:41
ubptgbot<Elias> @dohbee Indeed, the application has been designed to support the smb protocol, because in the network part of the filemanager, the application lists the different machines present in the network and when you click on one of the machines, the application tries to connect via the SMB protocol, but unfortunately it didn't succeed for the serve14:42

cfengineuserthe VM can't do dns14:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Elias [@dohbee Indeed, the application has been designed to support the smb protocol, b …], ok. maybe you can figure out what the problem is and help fix the app then :)14:42
cfengineuseri am running on slackware14:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> cfengineuser, have you modified something in the build process14:43
cfengineuserno14:43
cfengineuserjust my system14:43
cfengineuseri added the kvm group14:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Have you blocked 1.1.1.114:43
cfengineuserand a udev rule14:43
cfengineuserhmm14:43
cfengineuserblocked?14:43
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Are you calling docker a VM?14:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> is the virtual network bridge up and connected?14:44
cfengineuseryes14:44
cfengineuseroh here is an issue14:44
cfengineuseri did not make a network bridge14:44
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Okay. And docker containers are unable to access the network?14:44
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> That would do14:44
cfengineuserit appears so14:44
cfengineusernot sure how to set that up14:44
cfengineuseri have done it for qemu14:45
cfengineuserseparate machine14:45
cfengineuserI am running slackware64-current14:45
ubptgbot<dohbee> i don't know how slackware does things any more, but yeah, make sure docker containers can use the network first14:45
cfengineuserok let me look into14:45
cfengineuserthanks for help14:45
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> I'm also not sure how to use slackware. Unfortunately I won't be much help either14:45
cfengineuseri'll likely be back14:46
ubptgbot<Elias> @dohbee I'm gonna try to solve the problem14:46
cfengineuseri need to e able to build and add to these images14:46
cfengineuserfor a project14:46
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> The debos script only downloads and installs the system-image build, so modifying it won't be simple14:47
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> What modifications are you thinking?14:47
cfengineuseri need to add some binaries14:48
cfengineuserperhaps take some away14:48
cfengineuserit doesn't have to be simple14:48
cfengineuserbut help is greatly appreciated asI am new to pinephone14:48
cfengineuserpine tab14:48
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Any particular reason why you find Ubuntu Touch best for the project?14:49
cfengineuseri don't yet but its a candidate14:49
cfengineuserdefinitely14:49
ubptgbot<dohbee> does seem like pmOS would be better for what you want14:49
cfengineuserhmm ok14:49
cfengineuseri can try that too14:50
cfengineuserthe units i have came with ubports14:50
cfengineuserthought i would start iwth that build14:50
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Okay. As you'll see in the debos builder, there are a few layers of images installed over one another. You can build your own images of course, but you would also need to consider running your own system-image infrastructure.14:50
cfengineuserif necessary14:50
cfengineuseri have a huge build machine14:50
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> https://ci.ubports.com/job/xenial-mainline-edge-pine-rootfs-arm64/ is installed, then the output from https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/pinephone is overlaid14:51
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> The rootfs contains the preinstalled Ubuntu system and the pinephone.tar.xz contains the kernel, recovery, bootloader...14:51
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Then a keyring and version information files are installed14:51
cfengineuserhmm14:51
cfengineuseri may be abl to add my stuff on the fly14:52
ubptgbot<matv1> I am also just wondering how you are managing to make your fstab edits persistent across reboots?14:52
ubptgbot<matv1> or else I am not understanding what youre doing :)14:52
cfengineuserhey if you think pmOS is a better place to start i am not opposed14:53
cfengineuseri am not a fan of docker14:53
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> cfengineuser, you can do it one-by-one on the installed device by making the rootfs read-write. But if you run a system update your changes may be overwritten, and if the changes break something we'll shrug14:53
cfengineuseryes i am familiar with shrugs14:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Could you give a bit more detail?14:54
cfengineuserI am under NDA bro14:54
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Alright. Then I can't really offer if it's the correct solution or not.14:54
cfengineuserfor now I am simply going through the build process to understand that14:55
cfengineuserthen i can answer that question14:56
cfengineuserI have built the last 5 versions of android from scratch14:56
cfengineuserI have POC on each14:56
cfengineuserpinephone and pinetab just added to project spec14:57
cfengineusermuch to my delight14:57
cfengineuserThanks for your help and commentary14:58
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> :D14:58
cfengineuserI am willing to bet that if i shared more your curiosity would overcome you14:59
ubptgbot<dave1152000> @dohbee [onion browser does everything over tor though, so uadblock is irrelevant for it …], Changed again to the Edge channel and they work again so presumably the channel change reload resets something in the browser.16:43

ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> @dohniks have you been able to successfully use the instructions in docs.ubports.com#331?19:28
ubptgbot<jorovifi> I have a weird battery behavior on my Nexus 5, for a couple days. When connected, the icon on the panel turns into charging (green and thunder) but after 2 seconds goes back to normal. Under Battery settings, when disconnected shows "Last full charge" (and a time label, i.e, 47hrs ago), when connected that label turns into "Charging" for20:22
ubptgbot 2 seconds and then disappears (the former label does not show up). The actual level seems to not change. Anyone experienced this before ?  Would that be HW or SW related ?20:22
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> Most likely hardware, your USB cable is disconnecting20:26
ubptgbot<TacoBarz> @Dockerfile256 [On my desktop Linux laptop, I can run Minecraft Bedrock version using this tool …], This sparkles gold. If can be done the same with minetest, it means that raytracing is not too far for an android exported game20:36
ubptgbot<TacoBarz> For UT20:36
ubptgbot<jorovifi> @UniversalSuperBox [Most likely hardware, your USB cable is disconnecting], I have tried several wall chargers, cables and with PC connection, same outcome. Is worth noting that when connected to the PC, the MTP service runs flawlessly and my PC doesn't seem to drop the device. Also, when power is actually-physically removed, the Low Bat21:02
ubptgbottery warning pops up, this not happening under the conditions described before21:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> @jorovifi [I have tried several wall chargers, cables and with PC connection, same outcome. …], does the battery icon behave the same way when MTP is working fine?21:05
ubptgbot<jorovifi> yes21:06
ubptgbot<jorovifi> disconnected --> connect to PC --> shows on PC, battery on green --> 2 seconds --> battery on red, no changes on PC21:07
ubptgbot<dohbee> probably the battery is bad or such then and not able to charge21:13
ubptgbot<UniversalSuperBox> syslog should say21:14
ubptgbot<jorovifi> yes in deed21:22

ubptgbot<jorovifi> not sure how to interpret this, any thoughts ?22:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> seems like the hardware is telling the kernel it stopped charging, and the kernel tells the software that22:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> so could be a bad battery or bad voltage wire connection in the usb port of the phone22:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> or bad ground maybe22:04
ubptgbot<dohbee> mtp only needs the data connection wires which are stable it seems22:04
ubptgbotMary Hill was added by: Mary Hill22:05
ubptgbot<jorovifi> @dohbee [or bad ground maybe], thank you, will see how long it survives. Have several chargers, wires and PCs, but no change. Will try with a battery bank to isolate further. The phone is about 4 months old and supposedly bought it sealed. Hopefully won't die so soon as is my only UT device22:14
