Installing driver-esque packages on ubuntu touch

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

TL;DR:

  1. do I use libertine to install stuff like "pulseaudio-module-bt"?

  2. if not, how do I then install such stuff?

  3. how do I ensure that libertine works as intended?

trying to follow up a recent post regarding a specific pair of bluetooth earbuds, I want to reformulate my problem. Maybe, someone will then be able to help me :)

I was told to not install stuff via the terminal/command-line, but via libertine. Does that count for any kind of packages? Because I hope that installing a specific package - something along the lines of "pulseaudio-module-bt" - should enable me to use my hardware just fine. Yet, when I tried to install said package - which exists in both ubuntu and debian package repositories -, libertine fails me. What I mean by that is that I cannot find the package via search, and when I enter the package name I found in the repositories, it spins the wheels but nothing effectively happens.

Interestingly enough, I had no problems installing emacs (like half a year ago) via libertine, but was unable to install vim. This I tried to ensure that stuff's alright with libertine. While I find the package - unlike "pulseaudio-module-bt", or "pulseaudio" -, it somehow doesnt want to install.

Any help is greatly appreciated :)

Need a suggestion

0 Upvotes

So, I've decided to host a discord self bot on my old android using docker but isn't natively supported on Android so I have a few options:

  1. Edit my Android's kernel and run docker natively (There's a guide on github)

  2. Run docker on Android using Virtual Machine.

  3. Flash Ubuntu touch/PostmarketOS (Linux) on Android and run docker on that.

What is it that you suggest?

Looking at getting new phone for elderly parent. Recently got hit hard with difficult apps to uninstall, getting spammed by marketing, things like gambling, etc.. currently phone is unusable due to pop-ups.

Would Linux phones help with this? I was looking at using Ubuntu on pixel 3.

What setup would you recommend for just Facebook YouTube but still protection from apps getting installed.

Btw I had the same Gmail account logged in on my phone (for monitoring Location), and those apps automatically installed on my phone !!!!!!! 😡😡😡

Need Help Understanding UB Touch Gsi Installation

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone I've been hopping around Roms in my old samsung galaxy A7 and after trying so many Gsi's and non-gsi based ROMs I was searching for something new to try and came across 2 options

  1. Ubuntu Touch

  2. Postmarket OS

But the one I'm interested in is Ubuntu Touch since it's elegant and seems like has better support so how am I supposed to install it Like normally I'd just flash

  1. Kernel (Quantum Kernel in my case)

  2. Rom img (flashing it as system Image)

Then what would be the steps for Ubuntu Touch and Is there something else that I'm missing?

Please Correct me if I'm wrong and I appreciate every little help :)).

Ubuntu touch for daily use

First off: I'm very experienced with Linux and I've got some experience with custom roms and rooting phones.

I wanna get a oneplus 5 and put ub toych on it. Is it worth it to do so? I just wanna be a part of the 0.001% of phone users, and also want something more free than regular android. Can anyone speak to ub ports viability?

How is 4G support going so far? The latest I could find is that it might work. The phone in question would be the pixel 3a but I know 4g isn't supported all around
