    @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

    @linuxfanche Interesting product. Technically it would only work in very limited devices and won't work as intended. So short answer no, long answer, maybe For wireless connection to work, it should be Miracast and currently compatibility is a hit and miss. Never found one that works on any of my devices. If ever it would work, input lag would likely be bad If it works well, I don't think Miracast support external touchscreen so you won't be able to control your UT device using the e-ink. For wired, only a few supports it. Top of my head - Nexus 5, Nexus 7 2013, Shift phone, Fxtec Pro1 (Not Pro1-X), Fairphone 4. Then not sure if those supports external touchscreen. Most likely, Nexus device don't. I can only confirm Fairphone 4. Even with everything working fine, UT uses an external display as an extended screen and there's currently no mirror mode. Also, external touchscreen isn't working well because it is mapped to the device instead of the external display.

    @ygrex said in ADB: long text in bash command line does not wrap: Hi, After adb shell if I type a long command, cursor goes to the left on the same line (overwriting things), then it goes lines up damaging text in a terminal buffer. I did not spend much on the issue but tried some guesses like resizing terminal emulator window somehow, export COLUMNS= LINES= reset, alternative shells (mksh, fizsh), but did not find anything useful yet. What do you use to comfortably type in commands through adb shell? That is something fixed on 20.04

    @jezek said in Can't open MMS.: @opolork said in Can't open MMS.: No idea, sorry. Open terminal, write sqlite3 .local/share/history-service/history.sqlite you should see an sqlite3 prompt, something like this phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sqlite3 .local/share/history-service/history.sqlite SQLite version 3.11.0 2016-02-15 17:29:24 Enter ".help" for usage hints. sqlite> write following command to the prompt select message, messageType, messageStatus from text_events where message like '%"Expire":"2023-01-10T12:52%'; you should get output like this {"Code":"x-ubports-nuntium-mms-error-activate-context","Message":"forced debug error: error-activate-context","Expire":"2023-01-15T18:18:59+01:00","Size":29696,"MobileData":false}|1|2 paste it here, there should be no personal info there, but check for sure before posting. You can exit the sqlite3 prompt with .exit Cheers, jezek. That's good to know for future reference. :thumbs_up:

    @lduboeuf it helped me to know that you succeeded by installing again and again. I just let the installer run again, chose 16.04/stable (as i also tried before) and BINGO! I think i installed for about 20 times now...thank you everybody for spending time on open source. I might be back with further questions...

    @Keneda Its a great phone, I hope UBPorts can pick up official support. Looks like it a basic phone & ssh terminal for now.

    @ktatar156 I seem to remember reading on here somewhere that there is a now a problem adding gmail accounts to dekko2 due to security/authentication changes on the Google side of the fence. There might be a workaround, you will have to do a search for the details I'm afraid. Edit: I think I found the info you need, try this thread:- https://forums.ubports.com/topic/7874/can-t-create-gmail-account-in-dekko?_=1673008816411

    @rogier-oudshoorn : I don't need that Dekko2 checks my email every x minutes. I just need a mail client able to check "on demand" a few e-mail accounts in a safe way. It seems to me that this is what Dekko1 did. Dekko2 should have an option to run without all privileges ! This is the only thing that prevent me from switching definitively from Ubuntu Touch Canonical OTA-15 version (on my daily driver BQ E5) to Ubports OTA-24 (used only for testing on my second BQ E5). So sad ... BR Pulsar33
