I have installed an old version of Firefox (the newest one does not run) and found that it has the same problems with the GeoGebra web application. So I couldn't find a way to run GeoGebra.

@lakotaubp Thanks again. The tip on the battery settings allowed me to have chromium installed on a different container. But it crashes after a bit without leaving any message. Nearly the same happened with Firefox, what did shock me. Arora runs successfully, but it is giving me problems with forms (when I start writing in the second field, it returns to the first one). And has problems with geogebra web applications.
The tip on deleting packages through the command line failed (it says that chromium-browser is not installed).

@lakotaubp Thanks. That didn't work, probably because the package is half-installed —the installation longed about 24 hours, the latter ones without any log output, so I tried to restart. Now the previous log output is not visible anymore ( in the container's info page —"Operation details"). I cannot reinstall the package until I have removed it. By the way, the package is "chromium-browser"

In 16.04 OTA5, running on a BQ M10 FHD, please...

Hi. 16.04 OTA5 running on a BQ FHD.
I have got the deb file for Chrome. It is in the Downloads folder in the internal memory. It is visible from the Libertine section of the Settings, through the dialog "Choose Debian package to install".

I select it, and then nothing happens. At most, it returns to the previous view of the already installed packages.

When I try the dialog "Enter package name or Debian file" then, again, after introducing the exact name of the file, nothing happens.

I cannot get any further. Any idea?

@juangrodeja I have downloaded the portable version but I cannot run its executable file. Can I incorporate it to a libertine container? Any other way to run it?

Thanks everybody!

@hummlbach said in No pdf viewer does perform text searches?:

@JuanGRodeja i think it depends on how the PDF was created whether its easy to search in them or not. If the PDF is basically only an image it gets difficult. Nonetheless possible for example M$ Onenote, does some OCR to let you search in these... That maybe would be a more advanced feature, but for other PDFs, i guess it shouldn't be that difficult. Please open a feature request issue here: https://github.com/ubports/docviewer-app/issues

Thanks. Done.

Is there a fundamental problem making that difficult? I only know the pdfjs viewer and the Document viewer, neither of which do that task. Does anybody know a web application doing that, by the way?

Thanks. I suppose that means that it will take long to fix the bug...

The well known dynamic geometry application is hardly working in my BQ M10, 16.04 OTA5 with the morph browser. The 3D features never worked because they use WebGL, but now even the 2D parts are uncontrollable. In particular, one may have a headache trying to switch between the several soft-keyboards that geogebra use, only to find that they do not work. Just go to the geogebra web page and try the graphing calculator.
I have tried to try the portable download of geogebra as a Linux application, but right now the download failed... I will try again.

I have just upgraded to OTA 5. Obviously, I have checked the option on the Morph browser settings. I tried too by unchecking it! Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

STARTLS as cipher, and START SESSION as authentication method. ( I'm traslating menus entries and options from Spanish, so I apologize again for any mistake). I think that's all I had to change.

Thanks. Finally the problem was fixed by comparing the outgoing server settings with those in my computer, and changing them accordingly.

BQ M10 FHD running 16.4 stable. I have installed Dekko2 from the OpenStore and configured an Outlook account. When I compose and send a message it does display "message queued". The message appears in Outbox and nothing more happens. I have detected an issue in Settings: under Mail > Accounts > (account name) > Outgoing server > Copies and folders the field named outgoing trail is empty and anything I wrote there have dissapeared when I return to that form.

(I am traslating to english from Spanish the names in the menus. Please forgive any mistake).

@llamasjm 'home' is /home/phablet. You can reach the contents of "/" with the File Manager, opening the menu with the left-upper button, and then using your password to unlock. But you should better use the 'Terminal', so you can use the sudo command to make changes as to delete directories or files. Open Terminal from the Apps scope. Then do cd /, then ls. To change to directory dir use cd dir. To remove a file filename use sudo rm filename and enter your password. To remove a directory and its contents use sudo rm -r dir.

@eupalino You should follow the link posted above by advocatus. First, you should connect to the wi-fi in order to make sure you have a configuration file for it. Then you should edit it following the instructions in that link. You should personalize the example there with your own dns IP addresses and, after 'address1=' with your fixed IP address '/' your netmask ',' your gateway IP address. There is no use in posting a particular example alone.

@lakotaubp Following these last instructions, the problem has been fixed. Thanks!

@lakotaubp Thanks. I succeded in deleting the old container, but Geogebra does not show up no matter how much I pull down and release in the Desktop Applications scope.

@juangrodeja said in Desktop apps scope is always void.:

@lakotaubp Is there a way to access, e.g., libreoffice?
How do you delete a container?
I have tried to create a new container, and a new one, called 'Xenial Xerus' has been created —I didn't choosed the name. Empty. Now I have got to start the installation of geogebra. Let's see what happens...

Now I have geogebra installed, but I have no idea on how to launch it...
