sys-usb is a NetVM itself to ease usage of USB network devices (wifi dongles, bluetooth connection through a phone etc). Which indeed makes it impossible to assign other NetVM to it. Maybe it would be better to have sys-usb as a ProxyVM... That would work, but would be somehow confusing. Anyway, there are two options what to do now (to have access to both network and USB): 1. Have one VM for both network and USB devices 2. Have separate USB VM, but with different type than "NetVM" The first one should be easy, as there is already configuration for this: qubesctl top.enable qvm.sys-net-with-usb qubesctl top.disable qvm.sys-usb qvm-remove sys-usb qubesctl state.highstate (Yes, this include removing sys-usb, as it would be useless now) The second option requires either creating new USB VM manually, or modifying mgmt configuration to change its type: /srv/formulas/dom0/virtual-machines-formula/qvm/sys-usb.sls - remove "flags: \n -net" (for ApPVM), or change "net" to "proxy" (for ProxyVM) In both cases, you'll need to remove sys-net, and then either create manually, or call management stack again (qubesctl state.highstate). - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
