@donieck do it in two steps?

@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.)

It occurs to me that this might also help those interested in automated app testing.

@wgarcia you're right: https://code.launchpad.net/unity shows 7.5 as "trunk"

@pglushkov there's also a brand-new project to port UT to Raspberry Pi https://github.com/ubports/raspberry-pi/issues

@pixelr0 you forgot the link https://forums.ubports.com/post/8665

@gizmochicken said in No more "Mir EGL" on 1804LTS (Bionic): At the risk of revealing the I understand less than I purport to understand, I have one more question: I know this calls for speculation, but do you anticipate that the above mentioned problematic Qt based applications will behave reasonably well (as a stopgap) under the XWayland solution that you are currently developing for Mir? That is a reasonable expectation, although don't expect immediate progress! (We've not started coding yet,) But Qt applications are largely usable already (and Qt 5.9.4 was a significant improvement on 5.9.3).

@webdrake said in Organizing Unity8 work: @alan_g I'll reach out to @mariogrip directly w.r.t. all things UBPorts. You've been more than generous with your time, but is it OK to still ping you about Mir(AL)-related issues w.r.t. the USC refactoring? No worries if not. Yes, I'm still happy to receive pings about Mir(AL) related stuff (USC or otherwise).

All fixed!

@alan_g and you're completely right in doing so. I just wanted to link to your post here in case someone came to https://forums.ubports.com/category/36/unity8 looking for the latest news. Thank you for your work!

@unisuperbox That's good to know.

Hi guys! about this topic I didn't read any news about the collaboration between ubport and yunit team and I'm curious to know if it is already reality or a work in progress. For what I understand yunit has successfully ported unity code on debian stable and is backporting to 16.04. will this migration to 16.04 be useful for ubport too? is it still possible to merge all the fixes and update both projects had done on their branch? Also I would like to know if there is some sort of collaboration between ubport (and yunit) with the canonical mir team about the mir support by canonical this is the actual situation Also mate team seems interested in a mir-based wayland compositor/client. is the collaboration between all those project on this common objective possible and already started? I hope in some news in the next Community Update bye guys and thank you!

Ah, that explains why the video was removed

Just for the record: Unity8org just got renamed to https://yunit.io/
