Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 call for testing

klh

@messayisto Use the installer, make sure none of the checkboxes are selected and install 24.04-1.x

@klh thanks!

Okay, I am going to run 1.x RC on my OnePlus N10, run the gsettings command as above, and wait for notification that 2.x is available.

Unfortunately I cannot really test now because my testing device is Oneplus Nord N10 5G, and I can't risk my daily driver at the moment.

My concern is about XWayland apps, is there still the problem of OSK not showing up on these apps ? (uWolf, uFirefox, Chromium for UT, Signal UT, Whatsnew, Min Browser, Rocket.chat)? I say that because I could test previous revisions of 24.04-2.x on my device and those app could not access the OSK anymore. Other people reported the same.

Can any one report the current status of these apps? Has it improved or is it still the same?

( I feel it would be a shame to loose usage of these apps with upgrade to 24.04-2.x, they are currently indispensable to my personal daily usage on my volaphone 22 ).

Thank you!

@pparent have you reported the issue anywhere? Not sure if anyone worked on that. Did this testing result in any logs or anything that could point us to a cause? Are these apps still using my immodules.cache hack from back in xenial?

@pparent On my xperia X neither Min Browser nor uWolf are working. Min Broeser is crashing after it st
arted, Uwolf has no keyboard. I am a bit surprised that this beta came out today, because Morph itsself is not working, too. Well, its a beta...

This is normal I will realease very soon (possibly tomorow) a new version that will not crash with 24.04-2.x, this is another bug that I can and will fix easily, that should currently only impact Min and Rocket.Chat .

The real problem is the OSK, I guess if it does not work with uWolf, it is the same with Signal UT or Whatsnew

Thank's

I did not open an issue, because I did not have the time to really dig. But some users did report me the issue about my apps.

But I remember we discussed with @gpatel-fr about this issue on this forum, and I think he had an hypothesis about a commit that might have provoked it, but I did not have the time to dig. I will try to find again this topic!

Possibly yes. My apps are indeed using a immodules.cache file in GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE to point to the maliit-inputcontext-gtk library path form the app. Its probable that the other apps from other authors do the same.

if it is, you may find warnings such as 'Application attempted to activate itself without focus' in the journal.

I also get no keyboard on Signal. The log says:

[4821:0616/124406.699401:ERROR:content/browser/browsermainloop.cc:290] GLib-GObject: gobjectgetqdata: assertion 'GIS_OBJECT (object)' failed

The proton-mail app crash when i switch between other apps.

Web browser is a huge upgrade. The only downside is that it's slow/stuttering when switching between web tabs.

Tested on fp5

@Equareo

Do you have more detailed logs? Could you post your

journalctl -r

after trying to open the keyboard in Signal UT?

Thank you!

EDIT: Here is a way to get more log with Signal UT, if someone can post the logs coming from those adb commands, it could be useful. ( It will start Signal and you can try to open the keyboard )

cd /opt/click.ubuntu.com/signalut.pparent/current/
export DISPLAY=:0
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/
export MALIIT_DEBUG=1 
export G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all 
./launcher.sh
