    @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

    @Fizz That is an interesting way of going about it. But I guess it works. In general though, changing ownership / permissions of system files is not recommended, so be sure to change them back to what they were when you are done editing them.

    @ferarilalon Sorry: you don't. There is no port for that device, so there is nothing to install. You can find the supported devices here: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

    @lduboeuf Thanks for your new project. Well personally, in normal use, I generally completely turn off cellular data and activate it when necessary. I don't know how difficult it can be to develop, but I imagine an option that automatically turns on cellular data in case of one or more open apps or web-apps using it, and automatically turns off cellular data when apps or web-apps that used cellular data are all closed...

    @messayisto You are welcome. I forked off our thread from the main one to make it easier for the hosts to find the questions they might want to answer. I hope you don't mind. But concerning your original question, the missing Notes app for Focal in the Open Store is a bug that is being looked into as I write this.

    @arubislander Yes, I sort of meant the service of a whole, having everything in one app. But to the look of it,the hostility from all made it imposible. however. I still hope for a whatsapp update. its just the UI that got messed up resently. A pretty good separate app, but only for xenial still.

    @Lakotaubp @Moem Hey, thanks for the answer. And for Moem, I was just hoping you had the answer I am running 20.04. And libertine installs a looot of things you dont want sometimes. But thats when you are a bit experimental. For example, If you want Falkon to run, and get the installation completed. You need to install kde window manager first. (I am sure there is a smarter way, but I dont know one) And when you install KDE window manager. You get a bunch of system apps like network manager and stuff. So, no terror. But it would be nice to be able to clean it up. All other apps are just in .local as .desktop. but not libertine stuff.

    @uwahl Glad you figured out a way to do what you wanted to achieve, all be it partially. This is what I meant when I said UT is a lot like 'regular' Ubuntu when viewed from the command line. Unless you want to be running services and such, more often than not, there is a way to get what you need, done.

    I know why this call error happens to a lot of users. To cut a long story short, install the standard Miui version again. Please note that it is very important to turn off all switches for Google services, location services and updates during installation. You will be asked to do this during setup, then start the device and switch on developer mode. Start the device in fastboot mode and install Ubuntu.

    You can only download Ubuntu Touch "images" inside UBports installer. And only actual versions, not previous ones.
