I think this may have been addressed in Whonix 14. On Whonix 13 on R3.2 with DispVMs, I worked around the issue by disabling sdwdate (https://phabricator.whonix.org/T695). I'm not sure that's the safest approach or if it will help on a normal suspend. So try Whonix 14 first, then disabling sdwdate if it still isn't working. NTP is disabled in Whonix templates. https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Time_Attacks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
