Hi,

I thought it might be good to have the launcher on the bottom edge, and did some searching and found:
gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Launcher launcher-position Bottom

It seems to accept the setting and when I read back the value it's changed, but nothing changes in the UI. Does anybody know if this should be possible?

Thanks

Sorted - thanks very much

Hi,

I've followed:
http://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/ssh.html

When I try and ssh from Git bash (or Putty), I get permission denied. I've even tried the -i option to specify the my key file.

Windows@Windows-PC MINGW64 ~/.ssh
$ pwd
/c/Users/Windows/.ssh

Windows@Windows-PC MINGW64 ~/.ssh
$ ls
id_rsa id_rsa.pub

Windows@Windows-PC MINGW64 ~/.ssh
$ ssh -i ./id_rsa.pub phablet@192.168.0.13
The authenticity of host '192.168.0.13 (192.168.0.13)' can't be established.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.0.13' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

Any ideas most gratefully received.

Hi,

I've just got a Nexus 5 to try ubports. The installation was amazingly easy (once I had adb tools in my path), and I really like it so far. But the one thing that totally confuses me is the 'desktop' and 'shortcuts'...

When I do a right edge swipe I see all my open apps in a stack, but for each one, I also seem to get a corresponding shortcut on the desktop? When I close any of these apps, it disappears from the stack and the shortcut disappears too. If I close them all, I'm just left with the app drawer and the corresponding 'scopes' shortcut, which I can't close.

So my questions are:

1. Is the desktop area something I can use myself, and place my own shortcuts, files etc., onto. Or is it purely for the purpose of displaying, selecting and closing open apps?
2. The shortcuts that appear just seem to be a duplication of the list of open apps in the stack, so I don't really get their purpose?

Sorry if I'm using strange terminology, but I'm completely new to UT. I'm using 16.04/stable btw.
Many thanks for any advice...
