@AppLee Now I see, said the blind man! I could not figure out why I couldn't write to the filesystem as root and sudo didn't work with the phone PIN. It's read-only because the entire filesystem is laid down during the porting process and thus only modified by the developers and then included in the port by the porters.

I'll get back to learning the porting process and waiting for the FP5 to go on sale! LOL. Thank you and I hope I'm not stating the obvious, but this is definitely helping me and hopefully others who get involved and read these forums.

@kugiigi Netflix still gets an error though different if widevine is not oresent. This site works though.

@Keneda I was used to copy links from morph to axolotl: unforrunatly that works anymore.

@kugiigi Sure, the topic is open, so people can do whatever 🙂

@alan_g it sure is. Now that the issue is public though, it makes it even more important to release OTA13 to bring the patch to stable users.

@Aury88 : some news about #371 distribution
Starting as usual, terminal display is correct but graphical display is garbage as previously.
I'm connected to a 4k Samsung TV (3840x2160) with a standard HDMI wire.
I've not tested in 1920x1080 but previous tests have shown no difference with a Full HD monitor.
So, after some time and automatic reboot, I've seen the same grey lines on white page screen, with some pixels blinking.
Fortunately, the PrintScreen function has captured a 4k snapshot of the display and it is correct as you can see below (I've reduced the image size for forum convenience). So it is definitely a problem of bad parameters in the frame buffer (correct) to video output (garbage) process (I don't know the code breakdown).
Good evening

@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.

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

@danchapman Thanks for the tip. I removed the .py files and I was using this one import in last version:

import io.thp.pyotherside 1.4

Everything was working, but in the last update of Ubuntu Touch (2018-W40), the python side is not working.

alt text

In the last UT version I have the package libpython3.5:armhf, then I think the error is coming because the libpython3.4 doesn't exist. But... I'm just importing "io.thp.pyotherside 1.4", the crash (IMO) is coming from the pyotherside from the system (?).

I tried import io.thp.pyotherside 1.5, but same result.

Any help please? Thanks in advance!

Just a quick response on the MirAL ABI changes. AFAIK unity-system-compositor and QtMir are the only affected components:

For unity-system-compositor: @WebDrake informs us it is simply a rebuild as the changed APIs are not used..

For QtMir: Gerry has proposed a PR.

The most important thing to me is privacy. Not to be in the hand of Google or apple or windows or anyone else.
It haven't to be mainstream, but it have to respect me.
It is also important to me to use my device as long as I want, secure. And not have to by a new device. (I know this is kind of not realistic because it is in the nature of the things that operating systems need more powered devices when the develloping is going on)

In this context a verry huge thank you to the people of ubports and halium.
