    @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.

    Better install TWRP recovery, this should work in 90% of the cases.

    @ingo Yup, the dependencies are still not in the images unfortunately so it may not survive OTA updates for some. But for me the browser still works and I only had to install the packages once :).

    This is just a reminder (pun intended) that we should use the issues tracker too, and not only talk about an issue on this forum, or on Telegram groups or wherever. For example the issues tracker for Notes is https://github.com/ubports/notes-app/issues That's the only way to have a proper record.

    @3arn0wl "To improve privacy, I'd like the option of using the Tor network." Running Tor on Ubuntu Touch devices would be a great feature for sure! On all of my desktop computers I'm using Tor as my standard browser since three or four years now. Nowadays and in times of unlimited tracking run by companies like Facebook, Google, Microsoft etc. there is not any reason anymore to not use Tor as a daily driver.

    Sorry for the delayed reply. Through command prompt before I installed Android Studio with just the universal package it didn't see the phone. Not sure why but it just stayed at waiting on device.

    @nataliagk The power button is stuck probably. You need to disassemble the phone and possibly replace the button cable. Have a look here how to dissassemble the phone.

    I use PIA and I have found this link while searching though about setting up Ubuntu Linx and it is a shame that the vpn set-up on my M10 is not as easy as this, https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/client-support/ubuntu10.10-pptp However, in the Advanced Open VPN section i have Ino idea which file to downloead and use. I would assume that i need the tcp/strong file but with vpns i do not want to get it wrong.

    @mawil1013 My OPO also charges rather slowly I think. Seems to depend somewhat on how many mA you feed it, but still slow. The battery performance has also deteriorated lately. Can't get through a day with bluetooth and wifi off, even with light use.
