Starting a phone call from the terminal on a #librem5 Birch. This call is to the good old "Fröken ur" speaking-clock service telling us the current time in Swedish. Fröken ur apparently existed since 1934 but it was not until 2020 that I learned how to call her from the terminal. 😃 Thanks @dos for the tip that xdg-open could be used in this way. @purism #calls #mobile #gnu #linux #freesoftware
... and here's the same from yesterday but on a #librem5.
For some reason #plymouth chokes a little compared to the devkit. Patches are all out there now so everyone can build their own encrypted #PureOS images.
#osk-sdl changes are already merged upstream, thanks @craftyguy
Based on @craftyguy 's #osk-sdl work i added cryptsetup-initramfs support to the #librem5's image-builder so one can build #luks encrypted images too. There's more work needed for this to hit the factory floor but at least one can build own images with encryption once all is merged. The video shows the devkit since this a bit simpler to debug over serial:
#phosh 0.6.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.6.0
Besides more fixes for docked mode, the most visible change is @exalm@floss.social 's work to close apps by swiping up. This needs #libhandy 1.0.2.

Librem 5 Laptop Mode
"The Librem 5 can now change from factors easily. Connect it to a powered USB-C dock to enable desktop mode. Or connect it to a laptop dock to turn your phone into a fully working laptop."

#phosh 0.5.1 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.5.1
This is mostly bugfixes over 0.5.1 plus translations updates but also enables docked mode for tablets thanks (thanks to Arnaud)
Getting #convergence on the #librem5 to work is all over the stack (#phosh, #phoc, #wlroots, #mesa, #linux kernel, ...). Every piece wants a bit of attention somewhat like https://twitter.com/i/status/1231344659634540550

#phosh 0.5.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.5.0
This adds more keybindings, "docked mode" (for usage with external screen/mouse/keyboard) and more fixes with multiple screens.
You need recent #phoc 0.4.4, #squeekboard 1.10.0 and #wlroots git master (or backported fixes) for this to work.
