I would suggest, as advice I followed from qubes docs, is to just try to find a board that has a manual describing iommu/vt-d options as available. Preferably manual stating its on by default. The best of all scenarios being a manual that shows a picture of the option with it enabled. I would also suggest something with a ps/2 port for your keyboard, and using a usb to ps/2 adapter for better security. integrated gpu is all you need. I would suggest 16-32gb of ram. best of luck. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
