    @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.

    @Sentinel Hi All, I'm just now running the install from within the waydroid helper app. Back on the stable OS it shows me that the dowload speed is around 200KB/s, the is about 900MB to download. So yes, a verry slow connection for this app... EJ

    Same issue. Maybe it was a mistake to say "unpack them"? Could it be that we should just flash the downloaded zip file as is?

    @hengyedev The touch one. Sounds like a project. Which will lead to my next mindless post. Thanks!

    @domubpkm Wipe system partition will probably delete all your data. I suggest starting with a reinstall of UT without "wipe" in the Installer.

    At least another user did report the same problem, so I did open issue #85 on Github: https://github.com/HelloVolla/ubuntu-touch-beta-tests/issues/85

    @cliffcoggin You're welcome. I didn't notice any problem with the sleep mode timing. Perhaps a reboot could fix this?

    @kugiigi Thanks. Making do with what I have to, and will upgrade to a Nexus 5 soon. Just found myself without a computer, so a slimport and mouse/keyboard duo will be useful together.

    I am having a problem that looks suspiciously like that of @shabreen ... How do you reboot to recovery? The power button either switches it on or switches it off.... Power button plus volume up sets it in Fastboot mode. Power button plus volume down gives a menu....

    @thepossessor With PMOS on sdcard and Manjaro on the emmc I tried many times to follow the pine64 hints to flash ANX but got no out put or responses to indicate anything was happening (turns out that's normal) so also followed the prompt to dmesg. And redirect to a file 'cos too difficult/laborious to look at on device. It wasn't working in that set up, so followed another guy's post to use mobian/phosh on on sdcard. No terminal output, but after a while dmesg output showed no errors or comments in the process right up to 'power down' or something. So it looked complete. I don't understand the tech stuff here but my main motivation in this is thinking that it will make usb connection possible to file manager on pc. Anyhow , after that I re-plugged the phone whilst still in mobian and and got connected to pc. Next: Flashed UT to emmc to see if if it would work there also, but no. Flashed mobian to emmc. usb connection to ubuntu on pc straightforward and easy. Just right for me! I'm not sure it was the ANX flashing that did it...but it's the first time after lots of mucking about that I can just connect to pc with usb and copy files , so ...

    At this point, the real concern is not Tor but having a simple internet connection on the UT volla, this lack of internet is my case, even in OTA-14, others only on dev and rc channels. Already getting the basics right, i.e. normalizing cellular data problems. The positive point is that I flashed (without solving my problem) several times the volla with the last installer and it works great!
