IngvixI wonder if there's any reason it wouldn't work to connect a generic usb headset to Xperia 10 with a USB-A to -C adapter and use it for calls?09:52
attahShould work fine09:53
attahIf it is detected as the proper class of device routing should "just work"09:54
Ingvixgood, then I might just spend some moneys on the adapter09:55
Ingvixit just works on desktop linux systems at least09:56
attahSound devices, even most exotic ones, are very generic when it comes to drivers09:57
mahairodHi, anybody knows if i586 target is available for SF4 on OBS10:57
mahairodsf latest works fine for arm8el10:59
malmahairod: it should be available, if you mean this project https://build.sailfishos.org/project/show/home:mahairod:branches:home:coderus:sailfish the error is that it sees two possible packages providing same library so you need to define in project config which one to use11:23
malmahairod: so probably add "Prefer: cryptsetup-libs" to https://build.sailfishos.org/project/prjconf/home:mahairod:branches:home:coderus:sailfish11:26
mahairodokay I'll try it with some other pkg. Currentl work well enough on native fw.11:32
malthe fix I mentioned is quite simple11:34
mahairodbut actually not enough for production, image quality and speed don't allow interactive screencast. So probably there's something with real video encoding like screencast from suse OBS?11:37
malI haven't looked into that kind of apps11:39
mahairodmaybe there's smth like xwayland?11:55
attahFrom a quick glance at that code, there is some performance left on the table... like extra copies, and transforms that could perhaps be delegated or accelerated11:57
attahMe and a colleague managed to hack together a remote desktop thingy for Android ADB, that literally takes single screenshots and feeds over to a python script... sure, we only got like 5 FPS, but it was surprisingly usable11:59
attahSurely one could beat that with some time and elbow-grease11:59
Mister_Magisterthe hell is wrong with bash on 4.115:39
Mister_Magistergot one guy with it15:39
Mister_Magister--version shows nothing, shopt is missing15:39
Mister_Magisterwhat did u do again jolla…15:40
Nico[m]Maybe it is not bash but ash?16:04
olMister_Magister (IRC): This is because this is busybox, not bash. If you need real bash, run "zypper in gnu-bash" as root. Then choose option 1 (remove conflicting busybox-symlinks-bash package).16:06
Mister_Magisterol: thanks!16:06
Mister_Magisterol: it wasn't like that previously16:06
Mister_Magisteror it was but i had ports16:06
IngvixI don't understand why is the task switcher locked to portrait mode without even an option to allow landscape mode. I find it very impractical16:07
olMister_Magister (IRC): It started with 4.0. Some other utilities were already replaced by default with busybox, but bash was replaced in 4.0.16:07
IngvixI mean, I know I can change with a simple change in the qml file but it's just weird for default behavior16:08
Mister_Magisterol: thanks16:09
olI think, the reason is that the last version of bash available under GPLv2 license was very old. And it seems to be a policy that there should be no GPLv3 installed by default in Sailfish OS. So, in order to upgrade to more modern bash, it should have been replaced by busybox by default.16:10
Mister_Magisterol: ye 3.3 bash is 3.x16:10
Mister_Magisterwhile my rolling release distro has 516:11
Ingvixwhat's the problem with GPLv3?16:11
Nico[m]Companies are scared of the GPLv316:12
olEspecially, it's anti-tivoisation clause.16:13
Nico[m]Even if it doesn't apply to them16:13
Mister_Magisteras they should be16:13
olThey all think that tivoisation will make them earn more money by locking in customers.16:14
Ingvixbakas16:14
Nico[m]ol: It is not even that. They want to prevent their employees from modifying the software on their devices. Which is totally in their right to do, even with the GPLv3, since it is a company devie16:27
riniguspiggz: I wonder whether we should ask to have a separate statement in SFOS update notes that the apps using ICU (such as Amazfish and OSM Scout Server) will be unavailable until they are recompiled for new release. And that one could be delayed17:41
rinigus... as they have these statements like "uninstall this and that"17:42
piggzrinigus: not a terrible idea ... im already being grumbled at! ...17:43
piggzatleast the sdk is availableable17:43
piggzso, its all on me!17:43
rinigussame here - every release. alternative is to blow up package size and just incorporate icu. have done that in jolla store days, later dropped it17:44
piggzrinigus: i find that causes crashes lately ... with some libs using system icu etc17:47
piggzwhy i stopped shipping icu17:48
riniguspiggz: thanks - good to know. then I will keep it as it is18:12
piggzrinigus: it used to work with some older icu versions, but stopped working, and to this day, i still have people reporting crashes becuase they have an old icu52 installed that I shipped :)18:13
rinigus:)18:13
