@arubislander yeah I was hoping there was a app I missed on the open store

@ckrnkfrnchmn You can at least follow the progress regarding the current OTA here https://gitlab.com/groups/ubports/development/core/-/milestones?state=opened

@LemmyMemy Development on Anbox has ceased. Waydroid is the solution that is available for limited Android app compatibility.

@LemmyMemy Give the instructions by @potet here a try. @FakeShell has an extensive thread of confirmed apps here.

Please see https://forums.ubports.com/topic/8858/ota-25-hotfix/10 A new RC as roll out that should fix the boot issue. Also for device that have fingerprint, please check if no regression.

@Opolork Yes as far as we can tell. Forward it to me nigel@ubports.com if you want.

@garymc I'm not pushing you away but if the terminal is the reason you use UT then you're using it for the wrong reason. You might be better off using other distros like Droidian or postmarketOS.

@ukphil hI uk Phil: I saw your comments about PIA VPN set up that uou posted 6 years ago. I got my Aquaris M10 FHD updated to Ubuntu 16.04 this week and wondered if you have made progress in getting PIA installed on 16.04. There is a good web page on how to install PIA for a Raspberry Pi: https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2020/06/raspberry-pi-vpn-setup-guide/ It has worked well for my on my pi computers.... but I don't know if it will work for the Ubports Ubuntu Tablet. It seems that it might work, if the operating system (16.04) is really Ubuntu linux. Could you please comment so that I could think and learn more, please? Thanks, Daryl

@mariogrip said in Move from Github to Gitlab?: Hello everyone! So, with the resent news about Microsoft buying Github https://www.theverge.com/2018/6/3/17422752/microsoft-github-acquisition-rumors the question have been raised to me if we should move to Gitlab. We will for sure talk about this in our Developer meeting today, so I decided to post this to see what the community things before making a decision. This has to be an Developer decision, but at the same time we do bug reporting on Github too so community input is extremely important. So please give your input on if we should move or not. To move to Gitlab will have no major drawbacks, we will only gain extra functions like direct CI on Gitlab. Gitlab has all the existing functions we use on Github. Gitlab is even opensource which is a big plus! (github is not opensource) Importing will also be no extra job, Gitlab has already automated tools to import everything from Github (issues, pr, wiki, repos etc). And for infrastructure using Gitlab is no problem plugins etc for Gitlab already exists (https://jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/gitlab-plugin/) So from my side there is no reason to not use Gitlab. vote here: http://www.strawpoll.me/15829621 I myself strongly dislike this, and do not trust Microsoft, so I have moved all my personal things to gitlab! Also the irony asking someone to create a bug report for our project on a Microsoft platform is weird. What I still don't understand today is why they didn't make a real switch to open-sources. The fact that they changed to the e.v. club https://codeberg.org in this form

@prophanetes Leave it with me for a while, will be in touch.

@arubislander Yes, i know, but there already IS a working port for the pro, that's all i said (did not say perfect).

@jaag It was not planned, but UT did the detox thing for me. I don't have fb and the sorts anymore and I can only vouch for what @Moem said: it's a calmer experience indeed. Notifications are usually far and between and i consume much less videos / games / social and much more books, forums, and interactive novels, thanks mostly to @cybersheep job

@arubislander That sucks, but understandable. Hopefully in the future that it gets better.

@b4t54ndw1ch Update: I finally cracked my Windows 7 computer and got my admin privileges back. Now I have a phone rooting computer. The basic problem was that I had forgotten my admin password and couldn't do anything as root. Also, I don't have the install CD. I had to find the image online buried in a repo somewhere. Then I had to DL a program called 'Rufus' to make a stick that would boot a Windows OS...something special that Rufus (and a few other programs) does that makes something say 'this is a Windows install'. I had to take all this stuff over to my mom's computer and make the bootable USB sticks there because I cannot run Rufus without an admin password. Also, Rufus is a .exe and will not run on Linux. The boot stick was successful and I was able to use the product key on the bottom of the laptop to reinstall a fresh copy and set a new password. Now to get back to running some rooting software tests...

@audrew It would help those that know if this is possible what you are trying to achieve. Please remember UT is designed as a mobile OS not a pc. That said you can also ask here the main Telegram group http://t.me/ubports or https://t.me/breakyourut for more odd stuff.
