Getting my development environment running
-
Rebooted, but same errors.
-
- What distro are you running?
- How did you install clickable?
-
What version of clickable? There was an issue specifically with the desktop mode a few weeks ago. Try updating to the latest version or if the direct deploy to phone mode works.
-
Thanks @arubislander & @poVoq . I'm running Ubuntu 19.10. I installed clickable 6.10.0 from the PPA, which seems to be the latest version.
-
@rival are you logged in to an X session or a Wayland session?
-
@arubislander Just my desktop session, I don't have anything else running, and I'm just running this on my laptop, I've not created a VM or anything that might be headless.
-
@rival What I mean is, that on Ubuntu you can choose what graphical session you will use on the login screen. It is something like "Ubuntu Waylaynd" and "Ubuntu <something else>". (It is a little inconvenient for me to log out at the moment to check)
-
@arubislander Thanks, I've got 'Ubuntu' selected rather than 'Ubuntu on Wayland' (I'd never noticed the option before!).
-
I might be due a full wipe-and-reinstall with 20.04 LTS, so it might be better to wait for that and start with a guaranteed clean machine rather than a laptop I've been using for three years (on 19.10 now)
-
@rival Don't give up yet... I will try the latest clickable on my lappy when I get home (might be a while, I am in CET, and I think I have a meeting this evening). It would be great to get you on board and developing.
What timezone are you in? Maybe we could coordinate some realtime interaction. -
@arubislander thanks, I'm GMT/UCT. In the meantime I think that I'm going to start on my app in QtCreator and see if I can start writing code that I can port to UT later.
-
Do you have an idea for an app, @rival ?
-
@rival OK, that must be doable... Can I PM you on here for further coordination?

@3arn0wl the thing I miss the most on Ubuntu Touch is not having a cloud-based player. I've spent years building my collection* on OneDrive (I know, don't start) and I use an app called CloudPlayer on Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doubleTwist.cloudPlayerPro) I even pay for the premium version. It allows me to sync albums from my OneDrive to the local machine for my commute. I'd like to replicate this on Ubuntu Touch.
@arubislander of course, but I have more free time tomorrow and Friday than I do today
*by 'collection' I mostly mean Doctor Who stories from Big Finish

-
Thanks @AppLee I'll install that and give it a go. I suspect that what I want is more specialised than this, but I'll look into it and see if it can help shape my thinking. I'm happy to build something that syncs with the standard player, my original intention (back in the day) was to do something fancy with the music scope.

@rival Have you checked if your user can run docker? That is,
docker ps
works? I think I hit a similar issue that was resolved when I added my user to the docker group
