        On Ubports-Nexus 4 it runs. Why not on M10 and E5?

          Now adb shell runs... (?)

          But Libre Office crashes on M10.

            If it can help, Libre Office worked as soon as I installed Inkscape as I wrote above...

              Also with inkscape installed Libre Office crashes. How do you get Libre Office fully operational?

                  Now Libre Office runs also without inkscape (sorry, I don't need Inkscape...)

                  With the command line "libertine-container-manager install-package -p libreoffice -i ubuntu" it works! (First I took the apt install command...) Language-Package and Help-Package runs also!

                    @1896er But I guess you cant access your sdcard? Do anyone know if theres any plan to get Librecontainer to have some limited access to certain HW that you could set when creating the container?

                    Br,

                    Lars

                      Yes, no access to sdcard and also no access to usb-drive on M10 FHD. I have no solution...

                        Hello, I've created container, and installed libreoffice, firefox, qtdesigner with command : libertine-container-manage install-package -i container-identifier -p package-name

                        Those apps are shown in scope, but when I try to open them:
                        Icon with app name shows in middle of the screen
                        Then black screen for less than second
                        And then apps shut down without any other output and get back to desktop apps scope.

                        I am doing something wrong ? Or desktop apps don't work right now for anybody?

                          @tager18 do you see any useful logs in .cache/upstart/ ? (I think that's the path)

                              @doniks Thank you for your reply. In every log for desktop application (like application-legacy-container-identifier_firefox_0.0-.log) I have got this:
                              EE)
                              Fatal server error:
                              (EE) Failed to connect to Mir: Failed to connect: not accepted by server

                                @tager18 ok. Sounds to me like you should create a bug report. I don't have any other advice. Good luck, keep us posted.

                                  @tager18 Have exact same issue on my nexus 5. Created container with no issues and installed apps also no issues. Will check logs as suggested later.

                                    Just tried to get libertine on my M 10 and get device unauthorized message. adb shell and sudo adb shell don't work. Dev mode is on. All I can think off is that I need check to unlock the device by OEM unlock.
                                    Is this done via laptop with terminal and device in recovery. Sorry cant recall how just now. Thanks

                                      What exactly did you try and what exactly was the error?

                                      I am quite certain that oem lock does not relate to adb. Is the M10 unlocked, I mean the Ubuntu Touch lock screen with password or pin? Does the usb cable work to access folders on the phone? Did you try with another cable, usb port, phone, laptop, to rule out other problems. Does adb work when you are in recovery? Does adb device say anything? What happens in the output of dmesg when you plug in the device? Does the output of lsusb differ between the device plugged in / not plugged in?

                                        Yes lock screen off.
                                        Yes cable allows access to folders
                                        Yes tried different ports and cable
                                        Yes other phone used. Nexus 5 to create libertine container and install apps (succeeded).
                                        Yet too try recovery
                                        adb nothing, or on device screen.
                                        The next two I need to look up how to do.
                                        The M 10 is running the latest ubports r2 stable.
                                        adb message device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device. No message on device.
                                        Also don't have another laptop. Mine is running Ubuntu 17 32 bit.

                                          ok, that's all good.

                                          Yes other phone used. Nexus 5 to create libertine container and install apps (succeeded).

                                          ok. I assume you mean you did create the libertine container via adb,
                                          right? In that case you know the usb cable and port are ok.

                                          Yet too try recovery

                                          ok. try the adb_usb.ini tip below first

                                          Does adb device say anything? What happens in the output of dmesg when you plug in the device? Does the output of lsusb differ between the device plugged in / not plugged in?

                                          Ok, I wasn't clear enough. Sometimes there is a problem with adb:
                                          https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/adb.html#add-hardware-ids

                                          Follow steps 1, 4, 6, 7 here:
                                          https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/888

                                          The M 10 is running the latest ubports r2 stable.

                                          ok

                                          adb message device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device. No message on device.

                                          I don't understand what you are saying here. Is that the output of a command?!

                                          Also don't have another laptop. Mine is running Ubuntu 17 32 bit.

                                          No need anymore, it seems clear that cable and port are ok.

                                          Oh and phablet- shell did nothing at all.

                                          I think phablet-shell relies on adb, so if adb ain't working phablet-shell won't either.

                                          Thanks

                                            @doniks Thanks will read through the link info later. Sorry about the other bit, when using adb the message “device unauthorized etc...” comes up in the terminal and theres no confirmation dialog on the device.

                                              Just for info tried my Bq 5. Same problem when running adb shell. deamon starts running on port 5037. Then error: device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device.
                                              Legacy device issue? Just going to have a look at info above will see what happens.
