multiple uses - mir snaps (graphical on ubuntu core) can be made so you can export through the hdmi, but there are not many, just some examples: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/mir-snaps/ (I hope to see more cool stuff in the future)
Awesome idea @mateosalta! @Kaybag looks like graphical snaps are possible… though might need to engage KODI to make it happen (or at the very least their community).
Good stuff @mateosalta - I’ll modify the FAQ as this is a nicer way to access the store. In the future, there will be an app to do this automatically, but anybody is welcome to try and build it. We have an app generator and the external sites app is open source and contains the required component to display the iframe
I’m trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong here; I’ve installed snapweb (beta), attempted to visit hostname:4200 and it refuses the connection. I’ve also rebooted just in case that’s the problem.
I’ve not enabled SSL or anything special just yet. Visiting http://hostname brings up NC as expected.
@Tucson_JS - Apparently the SD card gets modified after the first boot and that’s the reason it worked for me (fresh SD card) and not for you (already booted once).
There is now a new FAQ entry with the correct process to follow. Thank you for your patience!
Which channel did you use for snapweb? It could be that edge, per example, is broken.
Try a snap list to see if it’s enabled.
Type journalctl -xe to see if the service did start properly
No, because the .htaccess file is injected inside our Apache config instead of being read at runtime in order to improve performance. Since this is the only use-case I found for making that file read-write, I think the best option is to just enable pretty-urls by default.
I haven’t opened an issue about that yet, so feel free to do it
10.0.1 is being tested right now. There is a snap you can download, but that won’t tell you if the migration is successful. It would be a new instance of NC.
Best thing to do wold be to load a VM with snapd on it, install NC9 from the command line, load some data and then upgrade with that snap.
In the future, it should be easier to test these upgrades by placing a lot of test data in the /media folder.
I’ve tried to run the snap manually, and this is what I see:
ubuntu@ubuntu-standard:~$ sudo snap run snapweb
runtime: this CPU has no floating point hardware, so it cannot run
this GOARM=6 binary. Recompile using GOARM=5.
Aargh… yes. I did completely forget about that. Thanks for the shell output.
Snapd is broken on ARM since last week. I wasted hours trying to figure out why and trying to find a workaround and that’s one reason I didn’t push any new snaps or releases.
Any snap you install will not run.
There is a workaround if you’re interested. It works because we’re not on Ubuntu Core yet.
