    @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

    Maybe below the head line Install Ubuntu Touch there should be a sub head line Install on Ubuntu Touch devices to separate this better from Install on Android devices Just my 0,02 pesos cubanos (en CUP, not CUC)

    @ubuntoutou No, unconfined apps can read/write to most any location where the user has filesystem level permissions. However, such apps require manual review, and this is not an appropriate way to implement what you are trying to solve. It would also be an incredible annoyance for yourself, if you wanted to try to rebuild every app you install to be unconfined, every time they get updated.

    That certainly sounds exactly like my issue, but I don't know what you mean tagged. Is that a google thing or a UT thing? I did notice that when I logged into my google account that all my contacts are duplicated, so the sync is working. I haven't merged them because I suspect my contacts will disappear off my phone if I do that. BTW, I've been using UT for a week now and I think I'll keep it for a while. I have some issues but no show stoppers.

    I have installed an old version of Firefox (the newest one does not run) and found that it has the same problems with the GeoGebra web application. So I couldn't find a way to run GeoGebra.

    I found the answer to my own question. There is a light on the bottom of N5 that keeps flashing, and the envelope icon on top becomes green.

    @marc_aurel maybe the whole Android SDK is a little bit over the top but it shouldn't be a problem.

    I've just tried transferring files on Manjaro, works fine both ways, so this is Antergos specific. I had similar problems with my printer.

    Tonight, I discovered that the problem with my tablet with ebay was because for some reason it was displaying the mobile site. Previously the M10 had always displayed the classic site which worked fine on the tablet. So I looked for a way to switch it back. I found that if I scrolled right to the bottom of the mobile site page, there was tiny clickable classic site emblem. Clicking that control immediately switched the display back to classic mode and everything worked smoothly without any insecure connection messages. In any case, on the tablet, classic mode is superior as more information is displayed. I hope this information will be helpful for other M10 tablet users.

    @wgarcia said in uNav on N5: @chdslv I'm using unav and another tracking app (Activity Tracker) and in both GPS works as expected in a Nexus 5 16.04. Same for me - no problems on nexus 5 except it still takes some time getting first GPS fix

    @custello said in How to download and install Apps from OpenStore via CLI?: Funny fact: The index.html file has exactly 6.53 MB (what would be the same size as Dekko's .click package). Maybe wget just renamed the downloaded file as index.html? Thanks to @Ingo's knowledge, this is partly true! wget will ignore the response headers, because this is an experimental feature at that time. Therefore wget uses a standard name for the downloaded file, and this one will be a classic index.html. @dobey said in How to download and install Apps from OpenStore via CLI?: The --allow-untrusted is required, because by simply downloading a click directly, you are missing the additional metadata, and are not verifying that what was downloaded, is trusted. Okay, thanks a lot! So the final (working) command should be: wget https://open-store.io/api/v3/apps/dekko2.dekkan/download/xenial/ -O /home/phablet/Downloads/dekko2.dekkan_armhf.click Afterwards: pkcon install-local --allow-untrusted /home/phablet/Downloads/*.click
