Ubuntu-ie Digest, Vol 74, Issue 3

Sun Jan 5 19:02:33 UTC 2014

Hi Aaron,
thanks for the uluas app, and your explanation below regarding stop times not being displayed. I installed the app onto my Ubuntu Touchified Nexus 4 yesterday and all seemed ok apart from the terminal times, and the odd time when it wouldn't display details for a particular stop (a click away to another station followed by a click back to the station you want generally resolves it). I was going to get onto you about it but you seemed to have answered my queries below, assuming the RTPI systems are at fault as explained.
Thanks and Regards.
Mark.
