LordeKumamon[m] | I acidentally removed the desktop icon from one app | 00:24 |
---|---|---|
LordeKumamon[m] | if you try to move the icon and misplace it, it'll vanish and you'll have no way to open the app again even thou it is still installed | 00:24 |
mal | you should be able to force reinstall the app from commandline | 00:27 |
LordeKumamon[m] | and then I'll lose login data (which in case of Riot.im means losing your encryption keys) | 00:28 |
LordeKumamon[m] | it's also possible to misplace the terminal icon and lose it too | 00:29 |
mal | LordeKumamon[m]: what? some app removes data when it's updated? | 00:42 |
mal | LordeKumamon[m]: maybe you misunderstood what I meant | 00:43 |
LordeKumamon[m] | reinstall = uninstall + install which I assume will remove all app data | 00:44 |
LordeKumamon[m] | maybe I misunderstood you. can you elaborate? | 00:44 |
mal | I meant install over the existing i.e. basically updating it using the same versio | 00:45 |
LordeKumamon[m] | how can I do that? | 00:46 |
LordeKumamon[m] | btw, thanks for offering a hand here | 00:47 |
mal | maybe figure out the package name (pkcon search name something_related) and the pkcon install --allow-reinstall package_name | 00:49 |
LordeKumamon[m] | this app I lost was an Android app | 00:51 |
mal | oh | 00:51 |
LordeKumamon[m] | it didn't show up in pkcon | 00:51 |
mal | well that information would have been nice to know | 00:51 |
LordeKumamon[m] | changing screen orientation doesn't make the icons appear again (as if they've been lost and could be refound), so I guess the icons were deleted | 00:56 |
LordeKumamon[m] | oops! I found them. they were dropped in folders! | 00:57 |
mal | what did you do to remove the icons? | 01:00 |
mal | ah | 01:00 |
mal | so everything is fine now? | 01:00 |
LordeKumamon[m] | yep. my eyes tricked me. the apps were actually moved into new folders (grouped with previous apps). | 01:02 |
mal | good that it was solved | 01:04 |
LordeKumamon[m] | thanks for the help | 01:06 |

vinipsmaker | does sailfish has a full-backup mode so if my phone is stolen I don't need to reconfigure everything? | 12:44 |
rinigus | vinipsmaker: I usually use rsync for backup of the home dir. while you will need to reinstall apps in this case, apps data will be there | 13:07 |
vinipsmaker | interesting | 13:08 |

attah | r0kk3rz: opus, supported? how? | 18:48 |
r0kk3rz | theres a library and a gstreamer plugin | 18:51 |
attah | but not by default? | 18:51 |
attah | ...or is it just the mimetype isn't registered? | 18:51 |
r0kk3rz | mimetype could be missing i guess | 18:53 |
r0kk3rz | the gstreamer plugin is there by default | 18:53 |
attah | opening it from downloads just gives a warning to suggest that | 18:54 |
attah | invoking jolla-mediaplayer with it as an argument does nothing :( | 18:54 |
r0kk3rz | where did ypu get the file? | 18:54 |
attah | https://media.ccc.de/v/35c3-10005-how_does_the_internet_work | 18:55 |
Dakon | playing alternativlos podcast from opus works | 18:55 |
r0kk3rz | attah: ok so i got the file to play, but it does look like the mediaplayer and tracker ignores the file | 19:19 |
attah | Okay... what did you get it to play with? | 19:19 |
r0kk3rz | my music player, sirensong | 19:20 |
r0kk3rz | because it supports launch args | 19:20 |
r0kk3rz | any other player also should work, so long as you can tell it to play the file | 19:21 |
attah | oh, my bad.. i was sure i had used the built-in media player like that before, but it does indeed not work | 19:22 |
r0kk3rz | ok, once i told tracker to index the file it showed up in jolla-mediaplayer | 19:25 |
r0kk3rz | which also plays | 19:26 |
attah | so basically Jolla could/should put that in the next update? jaaay, free functionality | 19:27 |
mal | r0kk3rz: should be quite simple to add new filetypes to supported ones if codecs are available | 19:28 |
mal | and already included in sailfish | 19:29 |
r0kk3rz | yeah, pretty sure thats just defined in the .desktop file | 19:29 |
r0kk3rz | not sure if theres an issue with the tracker miners or not | 19:30 |
attah | i tried adding it... but haven't figured out how to reload... | 19:30 |
r0kk3rz | i think you can also poke around with xdg-mime | 19:30 |
attah | yeah.. that's a clusterfudge | 19:31 |
r0kk3rz | but i just did tracker index --file [filename] | 19:31 |
attah | xdg-open on the .opus file invokes the browser | 19:31 |
mal | r0kk3rz: I'm trying to remember where new filetypes are added, I remember seeing something related to that in some changelog | 19:33 |
attah | ugh... and after a reboot the only thing that has changed is that the browser now succeeds in playing the file | 19:33 |
r0kk3rz | mal: theres a big ignorelist, but a whitelist im not sure | 19:33 |
mal | r0kk3rz: what is the mime type reported for opus | 19:36 |
r0kk3rz | audio/x-opus+ogg | 19:39 |
