Problem is: 1) I can't really tell if QWT is or is not installed. From the HVM I wasn't able to copy out to another AppVM but .... Frankly: I don't really follow the protocol To install the QWT, I have it from the --repos in dom0 but then I am supposed to once flag it to install while starting the HVM ? or as the docs say "it may take multiple attempts" , and the way I'm going to know besides trial copying out would be , look at the Win Registry or ? 2) I can't follow how one creates an AppVM from the HVM at all ? I do see an option in the VMManager to create something called HVM Templates, perhaps that fits the bill or is the paradigm for TemplateVM/AppVM somehow different in this win7 scenario ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
