I was able to use the instructions on that linked page to fix the screen resolution as desired. Much appreciated. > (as well as a pointer regarding Qubes agents) I'm not currently familiar enough with the inner workings or code underlying Qubes Agents to take a casual shot at customising them, but it's good to know for future reference what would need to be tweaked in order to modify mouse pointer behavior. For now I'll just live with the dual pointers in standard Linux HVM's. > I think you (or someone else) would have to put in the coding work in > order to make this work in the desired way.

Meaning if I wanted a Debian HVM, it's just as easy to clone my Debian TemplateVM and treat it as an HVM, instead of creating an actual new HVM the classic way and then installing a Debian ISO? Is there any fundamental intrinsic difference between how a Template behaves if used in this fashion, and how a normal HVM would behave? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
