ubptgbot<im_not_dead_seiwer> I wanted to ask the people ... But I just started translating the system into the Kazakh language ... And I'm wondering, but when the translation appears by default in the system, it is necessary to wait for the next global update so that the new translation will be added to the system?05:46
ubptgbot<im_not_dead_seiwer> @im_not_dead_seiwer [I wanted to ask the people ... But I just started translating the system into th …], I just would like to test my translation in the system, but I don't think that it is possible to reinstall unity so that the translation appears in the choice of languages and can be checked05:49
ubptgbot<Danfro> I am sure language files lie somewhere in the systems code on a device. It migh be possible to make it r/w and copy your language file there too. Just guessing that though.06:14

As for changing the system for reading, I always make it changeable through the tweaker so I don't have to do this) … But how to copy language files I have no idea06:40
ubptgbot<Danfro> Me neither. I can't help you further except with the idea. 🤓06:58
ubptgbot<Q_Liver> Is  there a good manual somewhere how to backup and restore my phone/address book on my BQ4.5?07:27
ubptgbot<Danfro> @Q_Liver [Is  there a good manual somewhere how to backup and restore my phone/address boo …], The easiest way is to export you contacts as a vcf file and copy that on your PC.08:07
ubptgbot<Danfro> Check contact apps settings for that.08:08
ubptgbot<dadmal> Camra08:08
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @Q_Liver [Is  there a good manual somewhere how to backup and restore my phone/address boo …], if you mean backup and restore contacts in UT then you can copy and restore the directory `~/.local/share/history-service`08:15
ubptgbot<Javacookies> oh no, a second after my reply, that's actuslly for SMS and calls … sorry, never mind me 😅08:15

ubptgbot<IAmJacksCompleteLackOfSurprise> Anyone had any luck with the image for OnePlus 6? I tried it the other week by using the a/b slots but did not get very far. Was going to take another look at the weekend. Wonder if it is beacause I use Lineage instead of stock.12:35
ubptgbot<NotKit> @nsensfel [Just finished compiling Firefox (version 83) in a prefix. For anyone wondering, …], I'm curious, did you get newer GTK+ for it? How your prefix is set up in general?12:37
ubptgbot<nsensfel> Yes, the prefix is kept separate from the main OS, having its own libraries. It's a Gentoo Prefix installation. GTK+ 3.24.22 is used. I have also tested Sway, with a similar result. Lastly, I have tried Mednafen, which relies on SDL2, and it interfaces without much troubles (fullscreen doesn't use all the screen, but it otherwise works j12:43
ubptgbotust fine).12:43
ubptgbot<NotKit> Gentoo, wow, compiling on device?12:55
ubptgbot<nsensfel> Yes. It takes a while for certain packages (Firefox for example), but I am used to it and the Pro1's performance isn't atrocious. I use 2 compilation threads and have a folder mounted in ram to avoid making too many writes to flash memory. The phone can be used just fine during compilation.12:58
ubptgbot<NotKit> regarding compositor problem, using edge may help with that as libwayland is updated there, but I did not test it13:00
ubptgbot<nsensfel> Unfortunately, this is my main phone and I do not own a second Pro1, so I don't think I will risk using the edge channel. I am glad to hear it's going to be fixed by an update in the not too distant future though. 👍13:03
ubptgbot<Javacookies> UT uses wayland on the pro1?13:10
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i'm guessing a prefix installation is similar to the container approach?13:12
ubptgbot<nsensfel> From what I understand, Mir offers some Wayland compatibility but it isn't what the UT application use. There are still some missing functionalities for Wayland on that version of Mir (or are they extension? I am not entirely sure) such as framebuffer management, which prevents hardware acceleration from being used. Mir does act as a Way13:15
ubptgbotland compositor, so by setting the environment variables correctly, Wayland applications can be used.13:15
ubptgbot<nsensfel> I am not familiar with containers. I'll look it up.13:16
ubptgbot<nsensfel> From Docker's page on what is a container, yes. It's similar, but all applications on the prefix share the same files and there is nothing isolating it from the main OS: the applications are compiled to use the prefix's libraries, but if for some reason they try to use the main OS's, nothing will stop them from doing so.13:20
ubptgbot<nsensfel> >  A Gentoo Prefix is independent of thehost userspace, but unlike containers, it shares the file system view of the host and doesnot rely on any special privilege or configuration assumptions.13:21

ubptgbot<im_not_dead_seiwer> (Photo, 606x1280) https://irc.ubports.com/i5WzGZIA.png You know ... I have never thought so much about what wallpaper to put on the desktop ... Due to the specificity of the UT interface, not every wallpaper will fit .... Can anyone recommend some kind of wallpaper suitable for Ut? And now I have installed these ... But I would15:31
ubptgbot not say that they fit the desktop well15:31
ubptgbot<Javacookies> well I guess it's hard to find that fits the launcher at the side unless it's specifically designer with it … just push someone to implement a tap desktop to hide or show the launcher 😄15:33
ubptgbot<dohbee> @im_not_dead_seiwer [<reply to media>], i would say square images which are abstract, or have an object of focus in the center, which are decently large enough to cover both portrait and landscape, are the best options15:33
ubptgbot<im_not_dead_seiwer> @dohbee [i would say square images which are abstract, or have an object of focus in the …], It turns out it is better to use either portraits or photos of nature for the desktop .... Thanks for the tip ... The main thing is to find now)15:35
ubptgbot<dohbee> there are some decent ones in the default set15:35

ubptgbot<nsensfel> @Javacookies [interesting, someone's also trying nix on UT  ans I feel like they're kinda the …], I believe it is the same indeed. nix provides binary packages by default, which makes faster to setup (you can make it compile packages too, if there is a need). I assume there are limitations as a result, but I would still recommend it over17:11
ubptgbot Gentoo Prefix for people that want to set up this kind of system and are not familiar with how Gentoo works.17:11
ubptgbot<dohbee> btw firefox 83 is in ubuntu 16.04 archives, so you can install it in libertine already. no need to compile it :)17:23

ubptgbot<dohbee> don't know if Volla has wired display support or not20:28
ubptgbot<dohbee> and i'm not sure about other phones (other than Pixel does not have it)20:28
ubptgbot<NotKit> Pro1 and PinePhone probably, it's not a common feature recently20:30
ubptgbot<Dani> @dohbee [F(x)Tec Pro 1 X maybe?], Seems like a great device, but it's difficult to buy in Europe with QWERTZ layout.20:35
ubptgbot<Dani> @NotKit [Pro1 and PinePhone probably, it's not a common feature recently], I like the hardware configuration of the Pro1 a lot more. Now I only need to find someone who's selling it in Europe...20:36
