audit=0 in /proc/cmdline did it that is, for me, sudo vim /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/xen.cfg and add it at the end of lines like: kernel=vmlinuz-4.19.12-3.pvops.qubes.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/qubes_dom0-root rd.luks.uuid=luks-9ed952b5-2aa8-4564-b700-fb23f5c9e94b rd.lvm.lv=qubes_dom0/root i915.alpha_support=1 rd.luks.options=discard root_trim=yes rd.luks.allow-discards ipv6.disable=1 loglevel=15 log_buf_len=16M printk.always_kmsg_dump=y printk.time=y printk.devkmsg=on mminit_loglevel=0 memory_corruption_check=1 fbcon=scrollback:4096k fbcon=font:ProFont6x11 net.ifnames=1 pax_sanitize_slab=full console=tty1 earlyprintk=vga systemd.log_target=kmsg systemd.journald.forward_to_console=1 udev.children-max=1256 rd.udev.children-max=1256 rhgb sysrq_always_enabled random.trust_cpu=off audit=0 however now I've: [11487.420448] userhelper[9870]: running '/usr/sbin/hddtemp -n -q /dev/sda' with root privileges on behalf of 'ctor' as a spam, every second. I've noticed that /usr/sbin/hddtemp wasn't already suid root, so I've set it now via: sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp the spam still happens, but maybe a reboot is in order, unless xfce4-sensors-plugin is calling userhelper itself? [ctor@dom0 ~]$ rpm -qf `which userhelper` usermode-1.111-8.fc24.x86_64 I'll go reboot, if it works I won't post again, otherwise I'll keep trying to find a way to get rid of this spam. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
