Hey everyone, we've just landed a big update for NetworkManager, our central network managing component, and all bits to enable Wireless Display support in Ubuntu Touch. All of these changes will be available in an image build over the weekend and published to rc-proposed.
As we had to get everything in before the string freeze there are some bugs left we will fix over the the next days: * The one major feature that's not reliable with NM 1.2 is hotspot. Debugging has shown that the issues are currently with the code in indicator-network that configures/enables hotspot. We're actively working in this and should have a fix for this soon. * VPN also has not been heavily tested, however we're also planning on uploading a newer version of the openvpn plugin next week which should bring us up to par with xenial. * Also we have a list of remaining bugs for Wireless Display support. In detail these are https://bugs.launchpad.net/aethercast/+bug/1574444 https://bugs.launchpad.net/aethercast/+bug/1566674 https://bugs.launchpad.net/aethercast/+bug/1576613 We're working actively on fixing them and will get them all done for the OTA 11 release. * The documentation at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/DisplayCasting about how to use Wireless Display needs updating now that everything has landed. * NOTE: Even if we have Wireless Display support now in our generic Ubuntu Touch images it will be only enabled on the Meizu MX Pro 5 aka turbo. regards, Simon -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
