ubptgbot<J W> @xander2m [I like the Christmas holidays. I have literally no idea about SSH but have the t …], The command for SSHing from a Linux distro is usually- ssh username@ipaddress  … After you do that it will ask for a password. That is pretty much it. For windows just get Putty and fill out up address and user fields then go. All SSH does is give00:26
ubptgbotyou a remote terminal connection to the device.00:26
ubptgbot<xander2m> Cool. Well I've installed Ubuntu today so will give it a go on there.00:27
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> hey guys i got a question02:11
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i know that it isnt stable to switch lomiri with something else02:11
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> but i wanna know if its actually possible02:12
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> im on devel channel and im willing to reinstall if anything fails02:12
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> are there any ways to do it?02:12

ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> how well work ubuntu touch on Samsung Galaxy note 4 … will the sPen work?02:27
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Daniel Daniel [how well work ubuntu touch on Samsung Galaxy note 4 … will the sPen work?], it might?02:30
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @bingusfunny [it might?], ?02:31
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Daniel Daniel [how well work ubuntu touch on Samsung Galaxy note 4 … will the sPen work?], the performance should be good, im running it on nexus 5 and its pretty smooth02:32
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> but im not sure if the spen will work02:33
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> thanks for answering … do you think ubuntu touch will work equal like in nexus 5 by note 4?02:35
ubptgbot<Shakendo> @Daniel Daniel [how well work ubuntu touch on Samsung Galaxy note 4 … will the sPen work?], seeing as I ported it, I can say it works fairly well, call audio currently isnt working (been trying to figure it out) the sPen is detected by the kernel, but it doesnt actually do anything cause either mir or lomiri doesnt handle styli input, I03:06
ubptgbothave opted to wait for the base to moclve to 20.04 before I devote time and energy into getting the spen to work.  I tried to set it as a mouse input, but that didnt work either03:06
ubptgbot<Sanath> Is any specific reason why there any dialer does not support landscape  mode?Some known limitation ?03:06
ubptgbot<Shakendo> @Daniel Daniel [thanks for answering … do you think ubuntu touch will work equal like in nexus 5 b …], it performs almost as well as N5, if I could get call audio working, and figure out a couple minor things then I would say its as good if not slightly better as a N503:08
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [but i wanna know if its actually possible], there is no supported way to change the shell, no03:37
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [there is no supported way to change the shell, no], hmm03:37
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> anyway, is there any way of switching to wayland from mir?03:38
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> or just using Xmir to run desktop apps?03:38
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @bingusfunny [or just using Xmir to run desktop apps?], (without libertine, because i cant get that running for some damn reason)03:40
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @Shakendo [seeing as I ported it, I can say it works fairly well, call audio currently isnt …], many thanks for answering03:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [anyway, is there any way of switching to wayland from mir?], mir is a wayland compositor, so no03:42
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @Shakendo [seeing as I ported it, I can say it works fairly well, call audio currently isnt …], do you have an own channel to keep me up to date?03:42
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [mir is a wayland compositor, so no], oh, i feel dumb03:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [or just using Xmir to run desktop apps?], this has nothing to do with wayland, and all X11 apps are run under it currently03:43
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [this has nothing to do with wayland, and all X11 apps are run under it currently], huh?03:43
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @bingusfunny [or just using Xmir to run desktop apps?], No desktop Apps on Ubuntu touch???03:43
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Daniel Daniel [No desktop Apps on Ubuntu touch???], idk but nope from what i can tell so far03:43
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [huh?], all libertine x11 apps are currently run via xmir03:43
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @bingusfunny [(without libertine, because i cant get that running for some damn reason)], .03:43
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> uh03:44
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> good thing i pointed that out03:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> 🤷‍♀️03:44
ubptgbot<dohbee> running PC apps on a phone is not the priority, and so libertine is still quite experimental03:45
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @dohbee [all libertine x11 apps are currently run via xmir], I can run for example gimp or office?03:45
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Daniel Daniel [I can run for example gimp or office?], sure03:45
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [running PC apps on a phone is not the priority, and so libertine is still quite …], bruh03:45

ubptgbot<dohbee> a Nexus 5 is not a Raspberry Pi03:46
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> I knew...but the system is makes the difference03:47
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [a Nexus 5 is not a Raspberry Pi], - same cpu architecture … - same type of ram … - runs off of emmc03:47
ubptgbot<dohbee> no03:47
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @bingusfunny [- same cpu architecture … - same type of ram … - runs off of emmc], i mean, when you think about it03:48
ubptgbot<dohbee> you're wrong03:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> alright03:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> cool03:48
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> HDMI or and wireless display will work?03:49
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Daniel Daniel [HDMI or and wireless display will work?], yeah probably03:49
ubptgbot<dohbee> they are different things, so it depends on device03:49
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> how well is anbox?03:50
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> (Video, 11s) https://irc.ubports.com/k0FgU0j5.mp403:51
ubptgbot<dohbee> extremely alpha. you won't get same experience as running native lineageOS or anything03:51
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @Daniel Daniel [<reply to media>], for that probably no!03:51
ubptgbot<dohbee> wtf03:51
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @dohbee [extremely alpha. you won't get same experience as running native lineageOS or an …], :( … is anbox on desktop OS also alpha?03:52
ubptgbot<dohbee> yes03:52
ubptgbot<dohbee> and unrelated to UT03:52
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> what would happen if i replaced the ut rootfs with a mobian one while installing03:55
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> lmao03:55
ubptgbot<dohbee> you would not be using UT then03:55
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> yeah but like would it work03:55
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> is it possible03:55
ubptgbot<dohbee> probably not03:55
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> hmm03:55
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i'll just wait for mobian halium 5 release lmao03:56
ubptgbot<dohbee> phones aren't PCs no matter what distro you attempt o install on them03:56
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [phones aren't PCs no matter what distro you attempt o install on them], wow i thought my Nexus 5 was an i9 99100k with a Radeon 6900XT03:57
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> thanks for the reminder03:57
ubptgbot<dohbee> it's not even an i3 3300k with a radeon hd 75003:57
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> apparently i have to put /s at the end of every sentence03:58
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> good to know03:58
ubptgbot<dohbee> but the point isn't about the performance. it's about the hardware03:58
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @dohbee [yes], ): … Android Emulator or Simulator on Windows probably better, like NOX or Bluestacks … And windows is not Unix based04:00
ubptgbot<dohbee> ok04:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> you're welcome to donate as much money has been spent on those ventures, to ubports04:01
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [you're welcome to donate as much money has been spent on those ventures, to ubpo …], i dont think any money would be spent emulating android lmao04:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> then feel free to not use android apps04:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> that04:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> wasnt what i meant04:02
ubptgbot<Daniel Daniel> @Daniel Daniel [<reply to media>], the APP is UbikiTouch … An realy nice idea to make something similar to Ubuntu or linx overall: so you can for example use your nexus 7 with only one Hand if you shirk the keyboard to right or left side04:02

ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @J W [The command for SSHing from a Linux distro is usually- ssh username@ipaddress  … A …], fwiw on ut it will only work with keys06:43
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [but i wanna know if its actually possible], replacing lomiri means its no longer ubuntu touch. yes its possible but everything on ut works via lomiri, from the the actual shell down to the compositor06:45
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [- same cpu architecture … - same type of ram … - runs off of emmc], - more sensors … - less ports(only one usb port … - binary drivers … -  smaller screen … :p06:50
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> no seriously the differences are bigger than you expect, kde dropped halium support for a reason and there not much storage space on these devices compared to what you can do with a rpi. ut is build this way for a reason06:53
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> also it isn't that desktop apps can't run, its that they aren't made for use with small 5 inch touchscreens06:55
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> [Edit] also it isn't that desktop apps can't run, its that they aren't made for use with low powered devices with  small 5 inch touchscreens06:56

ubptgbot<amyosx> @Javacookies [how do you boot to bootloader on bq E5?], Volume up + power usually does it on mediatek10:13
ubptgbot<Javacookies> hmmm, I think battery is dead … when I plug it to power, it shows 100% but won't boot … when unplugged, nothing happens10:14
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I thought I can revive it 😢10:14
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Javacookies [hmmm, I think battery is dead … when I plug it to power, it shows 100% but won't b …], Sounds like my dead 4.5. Even after a new battery installed10:24
ubptgbot<Javacookies> well I guess that confirms it 😅10:25
ubptgbot<Javacookies> too bad, it has sentimental value because it went through a lot just to get here from Europe 😆10:26
ubptgbot<amyosx> Hold volume up when you plug it in10:27
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @amyosx [Hold volume up when you plug it in], With BQ there was a thing of pressing the power button for 15-20 seconds10:34
ubptgbot<amyosx> Yeah but if your holding when preloader (?) executes it will bring up the menu10:35
ubptgbot<TuxInside18> @kriskuthu [please do try it,,we like to see it], I'm doing that with @hacker102410:45

ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> @Flohack [Small screens with insane pixel density. 538ppi for the Pixel 2XL, I had to rais …], T-Mobile has announced that they are changing their network configuration in addition to the VoLTE changes coming in January. In a nut shell, if the device is from 2015 or earlier, and can't get a firmware update from the manufacturer, it10:55
ubptgbot will be blocked from both voice and data access. AT&T has announced something similar. That means a lot of devices will no longer have network access in the US come February 1. I've got a couple of devices in that category that have a good lineage 14.1 port. You're welcome to have them if it's worth shipping them to Europe, otherwise also free to10:55
ubptgbota UbPorts developer in the Americas10:55
ubptgbot<xyn_dev> @rocket2nfinity [T-Mobile has announced that they are changing their network configuration in add …], Is this US-only ? Since T-Mobile is also in Poland and such11:03
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @rocket2nfinity [T-Mobile has announced that they are changing their network configuration in add …], Very generous. Is Sprint also being closed off?11:11
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> This is US only. Legally, T-Mobile agreed to keep Sprints CDMA service intact for three years. But, they are being cagey about it. CDMA doesn't work with UT anyway11:28
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> Hence, might as well give them to someone that can still use them. I hate recycling devices that still have a life in them11:29
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @rocket2nfinity [Hence, might as well give them to someone that can still use them. I hate recycl …], As things like this tend to get lost in the chat, it might be worth flagging up the offer in the forum11:31
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> I will, if no one claims them before then11:32
ubptgbot<Stereofont> There are issues with duties, tax, courier costs, customs declarations etc though11:32
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Is Canada similarly affected? Mexico?11:32
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> Yep, why I said if it's worth it. Europe is especially picky on those tax and customs issues11:33
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> Mexico no, Canada I'm not sure. There's always Rogers up there anyway. But here, there's only three big carriers and all three have committed to the same plan. Anyone in a rural US/Canada area with a regional telco still using GSM is welcome to them11:36

ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @rocket2nfinity [T-Mobile has announced that they are changing their network configuration in add …], what are the devices in question?11:47
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @amyosx [Maybe we get that HUGE and TREMENDOUS free trade deal haha], Off topic but ROFL. World beating levels of red tape and ritual self-humiliation12:10
ubptgbot<Flohack> @rocket2nfinity [T-Mobile has announced that they are changing their network configuration in add …], Well we have enough devices, but no knowledge about volte. Everything is vendor specific, even from same vendor it can be different for 2 devices. Bring documentation ;)12:12
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Maybe Musk's WiFi from the sky will make the LTE debate look funny and old-fashioned soon?12:15
ubptgbot<amyosx> Lol I hope12:16

ubptgbot<Steve Kueffer> Documentation about VoWiFi: … https://www.gsma.com/futurenetworks/ip_services/vowifi/12:28
ubptgbot<rocket2nfinity> @Fuseteam [what are the devices in question?], Nexus 5, probably my Nexus 6P (still waiting to hear from Google about that), Moto E4, several Samsung Galaxy and Galaxy Tabs12:29
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> hmmm12:29
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Fuseteam [hmmm], 😀12:33
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> 😎12:34
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Well South America is 'local' I think. Good for sustainability 😏12:44

ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Fuseteam [i'll see 😂], You could help Florian with the 6P. That would be very useful for the community12:56
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> that's actually not a bad suggestion 🤔12:57
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Steve Kueffer [Did you check the GSMA "official" documentation for carriers and mobile telephon …], You need to enable it via the vendor blobs for the specific device probably, there is no volte standard, so that document does not help13:05

ubptgbot<Steve Kueffer> @Flohack [You need to enable it via the vendor blobs for the specific device probably, the …], Concerning Vollaphone, maybe Gigaset can provide the documentation to Hallo Welt team for a future VoLte implementation.13:15
ubptgbot<Flohack> @Steve Kueffer [Concerning Vollaphone, maybe Gigaset can provide the documentation to Hallo Welt …], Probably yes.13:16
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Steve Kueffer [Concerning Vollaphone, maybe Gigaset can provide the documentation to Hallo Welt …], May be issues with USA licensing? Not sure…13:24
ubptgbot<Steve Kueffer> Apparently Vollaphone has been certified for the US market (sales licence). But don't know about other technical protocols under licence indeed...13:39
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> its mostly the fcc license that it is missing13:39
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Fuseteam [its mostly the fcc license that it is missing], Yes, I meant terms of a firmware usage licence. It might be limited to EU, if granted13:44
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> actually the problem is they didn't/don't have the resource to pass fcc's certification if memory serves13:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [also it isn't that desktop apps can't run, its that they aren't made for use wit …], true14:44
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> hmm14:45
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> it really is that difficult yes14:45
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i cant get libertine running for some reason, thats why i asked14:45
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> how have you tried to get libertine running?14:45
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> Settings > Libertine14:46
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> and also the command line way thru adb shell14:46
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> on my pc cause terminal on a 5inch screen is painful14:46
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> eh? did you actually let it finish? it does take quite a while14:46
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [eh? did you actually let it finish? it does take quite a while], yeah14:47
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [on my pc cause terminal on a 5inch screen is painful], well if the terminal that is optimized for ubuntu touch is that painfull to you, i would not have high hopes for running full desktop apps14:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [well if the terminal that is optimized for ubuntu touch is that painfull to you, …], no its the terminal thats painful14:48
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [yeah], what was the error you encountered14:48
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [no its the terminal thats painful], eh? how so?14:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [well if the terminal that is optimized for ubuntu touch is that painfull to you, …], [Edit] no its NOT the terminal thats painful14:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> fuck14:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> good job me14:48
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> ohw lol14:48
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @bingusfunny [no its NOT the terminal thats painful], its the fact that i have to type on a 4.95 inch screen14:49
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> so i just ssh or adb shell into it to do it14:49
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> its not a "ohhh ut is so painful" thing14:49
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> uh yeah i know what you mean don't worry, i'm readwrite rootfs guy i done some things on my device14:49
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> and yes as a rw'er i'm behind the idea of a readonly rootfs14:50
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> [Edit] and yes as a rw'er i'm all for the idea of a readonly rootfs14:50
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [so i just ssh or adb shell into it to do it], i do the same tbf14:51
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [and yes as a rw'er i'm all for the idea of a readonly rootfs], its a double edged sword really14:51
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> its really good for security and endusers14:51
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> BUUUT its linux so you expect it to be a writeable file system14:51
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> mmm kinda, there are a few tricks you can do14:51
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> for example did you know that while the rootfs is readonly that doesn't mean the entirety of `/` is readonly14:52
ubptgbot<jonny> @bingusfunny [BUUUT its linux so you expect it to be a writeable file system], embedded linux systems typically don't have a writable rootfs.14:52
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @jonny [embedded linux systems typically don't have a writable rootfs.], yeah but arent embedded linux systems used more in places like servers? i don't know much about those14:53
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> and to me it comes down to one question: why does it need to be writable to install a couple of applications?14:53
ubptgbot<dohbee> No. IoT, cars, phones, etc14:53
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> for context; its about getting around the issues libertine seems to have in this case for those coming in the convo14:55
ubptgbot<dohbee> It's just a small group of nerds that see "Linux" and think it must be the same as a PC running a Linux distro14:55
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> [Edit] for contextfor those just coming in the convo; its about getting around the issues libertine seems to have in this case14:56
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [It's just a small group of nerds that see "Linux" and think it must be the same …], but like, at that point isnt it just dangling around the "Android with a different display server, apt and less apps" territory lmao14:56
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [but like, at that point isnt it just dangling around the "Android with a differe …], no not really, there are plenty of difference with android14:56
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [no not really, there are plenty of difference with android], yeah i know14:57
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i definitely like ut more than android14:57
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> thats for sure14:57
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [but like, at that point isnt it just dangling around the "Android with a differe …], No14:57
ubptgbot<dohbee> Android is already linux14:57
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [Android is already linux], eh14:58
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> honestly i do believe there's a way to install applications via the command line but it needs to be uh optimized so to say14:58
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> only kernel wise basically14:58
ubptgbot<dohbee> Linux is only a kernel14:58
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [honestly i do believe there's a way to install applications via the command line …], apt works, but the display server basically blocks anything that isnt mir-optimized14:58
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> do you know your device architecture @bingusfunny ?14:58
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [do you know your device architecture @bingusfunny ?], armhf14:58
ubptgbot<dohbee> No, apt is not supported14:58
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [No, apt is not supported], im aware thanks14:59
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i'm not talking about apt rodney, thanks14:59
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [armhf], hmmm yeah that needs even more optimzation14:59
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [hmmm yeah that needs even more optimzation], yeah14:59
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [apt works, but the display server basically blocks anything that isnt mir-optimi …], Also, those things get run with xmir14:59
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [Also, those things get run with xmir], they dont, really15:00
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [i'm not talking about apt rodney, thanks], And I wasn't talking to you, thanks15:00
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> try running Nautilus and let me know15:00
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [And I wasn't talking to you, thanks], none of us were talking to you but go on15:00
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [they dont, really], yes they do you just set the flags15:00
ubptgbot<jonny> @bingusfunny [but like, at that point isnt it just dangling around the "Android with a differe …], The problem about android is not android itself, but the Google dependent ecosystem. And that one is completely different between Android and UT.15:00
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [And I wasn't talking to you, thanks], now that makes more sense xD15:00
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [yes they do you just set the flags], oh alright15:00
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [yes they do you just set the flags], in the desktop files? or while launching15:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [yes they do you just set the flags], Shouldn't need to15:01
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> there's a flag you can set in the desktop file or you can do it while launching15:01
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [there's a flag you can set in the desktop file or you can do it while launching], hmm15:01
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i'll try it15:01
ubptgbot<dohbee> But you can't just run any app fr CLI like on x11 either15:01
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [Shouldn't need to], it does appear to be the case outside of libertine15:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [it does appear to be the case outside of libertine], yeah exactly15:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> ok one last question before mess around with ut more15:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> is it possible to switch to xorg lmao15:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [it does appear to be the case outside of libertine], Then there's a bug somewhere15:02
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @bingusfunny [is it possible to switch to xorg lmao], im willing to reinstall15:02
ubptgbot<dohbee> @bingusfunny [is it possible to switch to xorg lmao], No15:02
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @bingusfunny [is it possible to switch to xorg lmao], lomiri depends on qtmir which depends on mir which is a wayland compositor15:03
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [lomiri depends on qtmir which depends on mir which is a wayland compositor], hmmm15:03
ubptgbot<dohbee> UT is not a traditional PC Linux distro15:03
ubptgbot<jonny> @bingusfunny [is it possible to switch to xorg lmao], No, it is not.15:04
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @dohbee [UT is not a traditional PC Linux distro], i know rodney15:04
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> thanks15:04
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i really suggesting diving a bit deeper into how ut works @bingusfunny its really interesting how they things actually works15:04
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> @Fuseteam [i really suggesting diving a bit deeper into how ut works @bingusfunny its reall …], yeah it really is15:04
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> i love it, im just to used to messing around with and breaking linux so i try to do that on anything with a linux kernel that i get my hands on15:04
ubptgbot<bingusfunny> [Edit] i love it, im just too used to messing around with and breaking linux so i try to do that on anything with a linux kernel that i get my hands on15:05
ubptgbot<kriskuthu> @TuxInside18 [I'm doing that with @hacker1024], If you want to test a build ,I will gladly help with that15:05
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> if you want to try and break things, try editing some qml files and reloading the program xD15:05
ubptgbot<TuxInside18> @kriskuthu [If you want to test a build ,I will gladly help with that], Thz15:05
ubptgbot<TuxInside18> @kriskuthu [If you want to test a build ,I will gladly help with that], [Edit] Thx15:05
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> i broke the keyboard like that a couple of times hehehehe15:06
ubptgbot<dohbee> Breaking things is easy15:06
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> fixing things is the real challenge15:06

ubptgbot<Aki Siika-aho> Is there a way to disable images on Morph or when making an webapp with webber?15:31
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Aki Siika-aho [Is there a way to disable images on Morph or when making an webapp with webber?], Do you mean a 'using data' setting?15:40
ubptgbot<Aki Siika-aho> Yes :)15:41
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Aki Siika-aho [Yes :)], I am guessing that would need a system level implementation, rather than browser level. A very interesting question, good to go in the forum for discussion at the next Q&A15:43
ubptgbot<Stereofont> Wait for the next Q&A thread to open, maybe 5 Janyary?15:46
ubptgbot<Stereofont> [Edit] Wait for the next Q&A thread to open, maybe 5 January?15:46
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> or file a feature request at https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch15:46
ubptgbot<Aki Siika-aho> Thanks, I will throw my question to next Q&A15:53

ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Aki Siika-aho [Thanks, I will throw my question to next Q&A], There is a data monitoring app now. That might offer some control opportunities?16:01
ubptgbot<Javacookies> if qtwebengine already has this feature then it'll be easy to implement16:01
ubptgbot<Stereofont> @Javacookies [if qtwebengine already has this feature then it'll be easy to implement], Indeed. So a good topic to chew on16:03
ubptgbot<Javacookies> I'll probably check on it when I get the time which os quite frequent during thos holidays 😄16:04
ubptgbot<malditobastardo> @Javacookies hey bro, do you know what's the actual status of the halium port for the N5? I am ready to give it a try now16:56
ubptgbot<Javacookies> Not really, I've only tried it once a few months ago. I think it's good now but I don't know what's still keeping it from being released16:58
ubptgbot<Gianluca Naseem> @Steve Kueffer [<reply to media>], I have same issue on volla … If I double click the circle side bar gets trigged  … Never seen the infogtaphic petals aether  … Might be bug17:13
ubptgbot<Javacookies> @Aki Siika-aho [Is there a way to disable images on Morph or when making an webapp with webber?], there seems to be an easy way to support automatic loading of images in Morph, you may log a feature request in github so that it won't be forgotten 😉17:23
ubptgbot<Steve Kueffer> @Gianluca Naseem [I have same issue on volla … If I double click the circle side bar gets trigged  … N …], Thank you for your confirmation! 😉 I will open an issue in Github.17:27

ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @mateosalta [Anything is possible with enough work], i mean you'd be building a different distro at that stage20:18
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> in my experience xorg isn't made for touchscreens20:18

ubptgbot<Fuseteam> you really like that zombo meme huh 😂20:42
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [in my experience xorg isn't made for touchscreens], mm, i don't think that's true. x11 is usable on all kinds of things, including touchscreens. the main issue is that most things made to run on traditional linux systems, aren't made for touch20:43
ubptgbot<dohbee> @Fuseteam [if it was we would have a lot of local merchants on ubuntu right now, the breaki …], i don't see how you could draw this conclusion20:44
ubptgbot<NotKit> @Fuseteam [in my experience xorg isn't made for touchscreens], try Nokia N9 :)20:44
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @NotKit [try Nokia N9 :)], it was a 23 touch screen monitor on a mini pc20:46
ubptgbot<mateosalta> @dohbee [Anything is possible, with ZomboCom Touch], the only limit is yourself at zombo ;)20:46
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [i don't see how you could draw this conclusion], personal experience, i had a couple of local merchants on ubuntu, but due to touch issues they all went back to windows in the end20:47
ubptgbot<Fuseteam> @dohbee [i don't see how you could draw this conclusion], [Edit] personal experience, in my previous job; i had a couple of local merchants on ubuntu, but due to touch issues they all went back to windows in the end20:48

ubptgbot<bingusfunny> everything else was broken20:49

ubptgbot<NotKit> the main problem with HMD/Nokia devices is not having officially unlockable bootloader21:42
ubptgbot<NotKit> there are some unofficial ways to unlock bootloaders on some models, but this puts developers away from the brand21:42
ubptgbot<J W> @NotKit [the main problem with HMD/Nokia devices is not having officially unlockable boot …], But most brands don't have officially unlockable bootloaders anyways? If there is some that does, who are they?21:51

ubptgbot<J W> @NotKit [Xiaomi, OnePlus, Samsung, Moto, ZTE, Pixel etc do have], Oh ok. I didn't know. Last time I looked at this kind of stuff was 4 or 5 years ago with flashing CyanogenMod and other roms with some Nexus and Samsung devices.21:55
