Hi,

when trying to install the new browser I ran into a problem with not having enough space in /var/cache/apt/archives

I thought this might have been because I did something foolish with my device (BQ M10 FHD - freiza) but I can see other people having the same problem.

Looking around the forum I can see that people recommend a couple of things:

1. sudo apt autoremove or sudo apt-get clean
2. Resizing the root partition

The solutions in 1. don't free up enough space.

For resizing I can see this script being mentioned - https://github.com/timsueberkrueb/plasma-phone-dev-setup/blob/master/usr/bin/resize-root-partition

Has anyone successfully used it? Is there an alternative?

Is there a recommended size to change to?

Hi folks,

Just wondering what people typically install from Libertine, and how useful they find the applications.

I am especially interested in what works well on the M10 tablets outside Desktop mode.

I have used Transmission, mComix and AbiWord. Transmission works pretty well. mComix is fine for opening and reading if you start by tapping on the file - opening the app first and trying to open files from there is awkward - the menus are unusable and / or appear to be off screen. I found AbiWord to similarly be more or less not worth using.

Has anyone had a positive experience with these or other applications?

@tomoqv Thanks for that, it worked for me just this morning.

I installed fdroid which was exciting, unfortunately I can't seem to bring up the keyboard in any anbox app so far however.

"MV asked if we can have Firefox sync integration?"

I think this should be possible. A while ago I opened a github issue on adding Firefox Sync support to Morph, though I guess it could also just be a standalone application.

I don't have the skills to implement any of this but I did research and include links for how Epiphany added Firefox Sync support.

(Note the issue is almost 2 years old so the documentation may no longer be valid).

@mardy I opened an issue for that on the address-book-app but wasn't sure if it should correctly be done in debian/control or debian/control.in

Debian/control includes this line:

#Modifications should be made to debian/control.in instead.

but it looks like that might be an artifact fro Canonical days. Is that the case?

anyone successfully get frieza working? I tried but am told that

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ anbox-tool install
Anbox kernel is not installed! Please flash this first!

Pretty sure I went through the procedures correctly but maybe I missed something. If I don't hear back from anyone I'll try again in a couple of days and open an issue if it still doesn't work.

I was wondering what was going on here:

apt -o Dir::Cache::Archives=/home/phablet/anbox install anbox-ubuntu-touch

On Telegram zubozrout explained that :

"Well all it does if I parse it right is that it downloads the packages to a specified folder instead of the cache folder on the root filesystem (if you pick a folder in your home for instance) and then installs it from there. So it may not help if the rootfs is too full since the installed files end up where they should anyway but it saves a small part needed for the actual download which may allow you to install it."
