Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Idea: consider crowdfunding UBports project
I'm supporting UBPort as a patreon, but I think UBPort should negotiate with Canonical to "sponsor" them : giving them free hosting, some devices, and why not some money ? 2017-04-16 10:33 GMT+02:00 Vincas Dargis : > Hi, > > I am user of BQ Aquaris E5, which is my actually first ever smart phone, > and I am deeply saddened that Canonical had to end Ubuntu Phone project.

I've created them from the ubuntu-sdk-ide GUI. I've tried both architectures, but don't remember which channel.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] basename: missing operand
Hi, I think I'm in the same situation, the emulators just don't start after eating all my CPU for a while. I thought it was because of my limited hardware on vivid, but with your message it seems it's in the emulators themselves. It's really an issue for an app developers, for now I'm testing my developments only against the desktop mode. I've a bq 5, but it's my main phone and I don't want to screw it by testing apps on it. Let's see how it goes. If one can also let us how we can help, that would be great! 2016-06-19 0:23 GMT+02:00 Unix One : > Hello, > > Has no one else encountered this, am I missing something obvious, or > maybe I didn't provide enough details, or maybe this isn't the right > list to ask this question? > > Here are some more details just in case: > - the host is 16.04 fresh install > - hardware: Dell XPS 13 9350 with Intel HD graphics > - I followed SDK installation steps here: > https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/phone/platform/sdk/installing-the-sdk/ > - I followed emulator creation/start instructions in the links I already > provided > - I tried creating emulators for armhf with both development and stable > channels, e.g. sudo ubuntu-emulator create myinstance > - and then try to run it with: ubuntu-emulator run myinstance > > Here's the `ubuntu-emulator list` output, which lists 3 different > instances I tried: > $ ubuntu-emulator list > myinstance ubuntu=20151127,device=20150910,custom=20151127,version=2 > testarm > ubuntu=20160506,device=20160401.1,custom=20160506,tag=OTA-10.1,version=19 > testarm2ubuntu=20151127,device=20150910,custom=20151127,version=2 > > I'd be extremely grateful if someone could help or at least point me in > the right direction. > > Thank you! > > On 06/16/2016 07:40 AM, Unix One wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I'm new to Ubuntu Touch development and setting up the SDK, and I feel a > > bit dumb unable to get the emulator to launch successfully.
