  @ukphil Well, not about Tor Browser as in the title, but VPN problems as mentioned here. The UBPorts/Ubuntu Touch NetworkManager password bug could cost you many, many hours and nerves. So have a look at https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/46 (mentioned in another post, if you're searching for 'VPN' here, as well). Read the first 4 lines of the first post – from member NeoTheThird – and the last 9. ;) Do the job as described there, perhaps you need to study https://ubports.com/de_DE/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/terminal-chapter-1-113 as well: "To login as superuser, type: $ sudo - i and your password To COPY or PASTE: hold your finger on the screen until the contextual menu appears To SCROLL the window UP or DOWN: use two fingers and swipe To select a layout, press and hold the square icon on the bottom left side. You'll see the options. Slide the finger to the desired one. [Nano] Gnu Nano: shortcuts keys for, in this order, help, save, read, previous page, cut text, position, exit, indentation, search, next page, paste text, spellcheck: CTRL+G, CTRL+O, CTRL+R, CTRL+Y, CTRL+K, CTRL+C, CTRL+X, CTRL+J, CTRL+W, CTRL+V, CTRL+U, CTRL+T"

  I sustain the edge channel @alan_g for a variety of reasons: We are a small team, we cannot guarantee that things being pushed will not break the entire image. We lack auto and manual testing a lot, we cannot work with silos etc. For some scenarios its very cumbersome to having install various packages from various branches at the same time to the phone devel has become actually quite a "stable devel" and we want to keep it as described for the changes where we are sure that they will not break the whole image. People should not expect having to reflash their phones after a devel channel update going wrong. This channel will not be on the phone for people to "just switch" to it. I do not see much issues with yet another channel coming for devs, the low-level devs will use it, but middleware/Ui etc can stay on devel probably. BR

  Does "klang" has another meaning in english/spanish? :D @krille no, "klang" is just an onomatopoeia in Spanish, a loud metallic sound. And in English, "clang" literally means "metallic sound" :) @all so I would open an issue now at github Sounds good to me

  @zzarr said in Gemini PDA: Hello everyone again! Is it possible to patch the kernel to be able to run libertine on Gemini yet? I doubt there is a kernel patch needed for libertine. If it runs UT it runs libertine I would say.

  @gizmochicken said in 18.04 desktop - getting it working again: Note that, in addition to posting results for Mir 0.32.1 RC4 (installed from ppa:mir-team/rc), I also posted results for Mir 0.32.0 (installed from the UBports repo). Hope that helps. Just to follow up on this here: Unity8 is working for me with (or without) the Mir release 0.32.1 from ppa:mir-team/release. However, it isn't working with the gdm greeter, just lightdm. (I've not experimented with further greeters.)

  @ddabrahim While I can understand the reasoning the problem with cheap devices is that we have 90% no way of re-compiling the parts we need to make the hardware work. We need a few basic bits to be available in source code, and then the whole vendor tree as closed source. If you find a cheap Chinese phone with a good LineageOS port (official) then we might try. Everything what is unofficially ported to LineageOS may break or cost us hundreds of hours. This is not really efficient. There is a reason why they are cheap. They are not meant to be modded. BR
