I also have a t460s and encountered many of the problems above. I updated the qubes patches (excluding pvusb) to apply against kernel v4.5.2 and tossed in an out-of-tree patch for Skylake. Bumping to 4.5.5 didn't require any further patch-wrangling (except that the Skylake patch had been merged in the meantime).
I've been running the result for a few days and everything seems to be working well. https://github.com/patientnil/qubes-linux-kernel/tree/devel-4.5 Notes: - The pvusb patch looks the trickiest to port, and the associated tools show that scary experimental warning. I didn't pursue it, it's sitting there commented out. - Sound, trackpoint buttons, wifi, suspend all work (though I haven't tried reenabling TPM yet). - I get occasional screen artifacting (horizontal lines) but I am using the qubes-R3.1 display packages - before a reinstall I had better luck with updates in the unstable repo. - While updating the kernel config, I had some sort of snafu, and I later had to go reenable a bunch of fundamental things like IP_MASQ. The config should be reexamined (I'm planning to pare it down to just the things I need). If this was to be merged to the main tree it should be redone. Presumably there are rules of some sort as to what to include? - I'm not sending a pull request since Marek mentioned the preference for longterm kernels - but perhaps the updated can be useful anyway if the next target is similar enough to 4.5? - If there's interest I could post RPMs and could possibly update this occasionally to keep up with 4.5 (which seems to be the sweet spot for Skylake right now) -tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
