    @freddo I see that files on system-image.ubports.com are stored with digital signatures, so, the situation is better here, but still requires implementing mechanism of choosing mirrors in installer software. I'll take a look at that soon. Thanks

    TEXStudio is working in Libertine! The generation of sample documents went well. Tested on channel 24.04/daily on Fairphone 4. RAM usage topped at 2.7GB (free -h). Other working things that are often used together with TEXStudio in the same libertine container: inkscape (vector graphics) atril (pdf viewer) thunar (file manager) Other; mousepad (text editor) parole (music) Not working as well out of the box: emacs gedit leafpad (usable, complaining about wayland) Observations xfce software tends to work with libertine. Some windows get a window title bar that I didn't figure out how to get rid of. Some apps in libertine are in bright mode. Maybe there is a way to add dark mode theme to a libertine container. A libertine container can say you need to run dpkg --configure -a as root to fix an installation gone wrong. How to become root in a libertine container is not straight forward. su - not working. su phablet not working. libertine-container-manager exec -i noble -c "/bin/bash" and then fakeroot seems to work.

    @ma Thanks for your suggestion. Things are working now since downgrading to 24.04.1.x RC. I think the 24.04.2.x version had several things in read-only mode (only guessing from reading the logs that were generated). Even when trying commands as sudo, received similar errors "need root access, read access, etc". Appreciate your input.

    To enter Fastboot, one has to pus Volume UP and hold it, then power on the device while pressing volume up until the bootmenu appears. UBports is buggy at this step IMO, but once you enter fastboot manually the flashing begins. Only after the tablet is in fastboot does UBports tell you how to activate it. So for anyone reading this in the future, download UBports, enable Developer mode on the tablet (Ubuntu Touch doesn't have OEM locking), connect, then when the tablet shuts down, boot into fastboot and it should continue.

    @messayisto my phone has an IPv4 address and can access the store just fine - if the store was not compatible with IPv4 they would have heard of it as open-store.io does not even have an IPv6 address. Maybe it's a problem with your phone provider, configuration of a CGN or network routing, the full path to the destination will usually not be controlled by them, these problems can't be checked locally. If you can't connect at all with a browser, maybe they'd be interested enough to investigate; use Firefox since Morph will not be known to them.

    Finally found the issue, for some reason the tls key was wrong (dont even ask, have no idea how that happened)........ @Luksus Didnt rebbot after turning volte off but doesnt seem to effect the vpn. /edit Well ping doesnt go through the tunnel but normal web traffic does, openvpn could really have a bit more clearer error messages. Like "Invalid tls key" or something instead of and obtuse " Insufficient key material or header text not found in file '[[INLINE]]' ".....

    @RJDan Not while using encryption, because all the info needed for the functions you care about are inaccessible until after your home folder is decrypted.

    @gpatel-fr said in Newbee trying hard, got a no space issue: while your phone is a 'reference device', it don't have a lot of recent issues and that could mean that it's not widely used anymore. With 3 circles in community strength, it means Pixel 3A is currently one of the most used devices (with Fairphone 4).

    said in Orange screen crash on Vollaphone 22 / Noble 24.04: Seems to stop happening when I disable emergency notifications. Actually it happened again. It seems to happen when I'm in a specific place, and connected to a specific Wifi network. I will avoid connecting to that network to see if it's better.
