Well, my LineageOS phone just died (in essence, my Android phone just died). So I'm now using my Pinephone Pro Linux phone. It's running postmarketOS plasma. So far, it automatically set up the SIM card fine. So, I'm getting texts from friends (via the app "Spacebar"). I'm even getting the group texts, which is good. However, even though I'm getting these, it says:"No MMSC configured".Anyone have any idea what this means? And what I should do about it?#PinephonePro #postmarketOS

So, I went to settings in Spacebar (the text app of Plasma) and set up MMSC in accordance with my provider (see link).https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/on/get-help/articles/set-up-data-on-an-android-phoneThis caused me to no longer get the group messages. Instead, I'd receive everything individually, but I'd be unable to read them. And I don't think the group got my message that I sent. So, I've switched to trying out Mobian (Phosh) and its program "Chats". That seems to be working, though I don't know if they got the text I just sent.#Mobian

@markgrieveson Rather than just giving up and switching to a different environment it would be great if you could report the bug through the correct channels and help figure out a solution.In this case that channel would be https://bugs.kde.org. If everybody just mentions it in a toot somewhere but never actually reports issues nothing would ever get fixed 😢

To continue, I have Mobian on an SD card, and postmarketOS (plasma) on the main drive. So, on POS, I'm now getting a notification that "Your Home folder is running out of disk space, you have 198 MiB remaining (7%)."Given that I just installed it and have downloaded nothing, I have no idea where this is coming from. While I prefer how Plasma looks, I think it just has too many issues. I think I'll just switch to Mobian (phosh). And I'm more familiar with Debian.#PinephonePro #Linux

Regarding the size of the drive, I found this here:https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/2299Apparently there's some command that might fix the drive space issue, but, well, then there's the messaging issues as well.I note this is the case in postmarketOS with both plasma and phosh. Well, I'm now going to install Mobian stable on the main drive, and keep Mobian unstable on the SD card.#PinephonePro #Linux #Mobian

@bart The thing is, it's important for me to get texting at least half working (at least until I get a replacement LineageOS phone), just so I don't miss notifications of shifts (happens a lot given the precarious nature of my job).Anyway, I did go back to postmarketOS, since Mobian was being unruly with me. I now have the stable version installed. And I have joined the Matrix channel (via element) to get help. And I'll be sure to submit bugs on their issues page.https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues
