Hey Taiidan,

Thanks for the information. I appreciate it because, to be honest, I really
wasn't well read on the subject and I admittedly just ordered what I saw on
google. I see now that this may not have been a good buy. This Novena
Laptop looks GREAT though and I'm going to look into getting one of these
instead.

Thank you,
Jason

Yeah man hit me up with questions anytime you got one.

Please note that the novena isn't a speed demon, let me know what your 
needs are and I can advise you on whats best.

Even if you're able to install it, it doesn't work. I tried restoring a backup
of a Win7 VM that I had been using in Qubes 3.2, and while it starts correctly
the VM crashes within seconds.

I'm suspecting it happens when the Windows VM attempts to communicate over the
network. But I have nothing more than circumstantial evidence to that fact.

Thanks for the detailed write-up. Based on the steps you've provided, it 
appears that the TPM is present in /sys/class/devices/tpm, but no PCRs are 
present and it's not possible to take ownership of the TPM with 
tpm_takeownership. Did you get further on this, e.g. to setup anti-evil-maid?

2017-12-04 Thread taii...@gmx.com

https://blog.invisiblethings.org/2016/09/03/thoughts-about-orwl.html
I am curious as to what made you purchase this faux open source computer 
(please reply with detailed info)


The "ORWL" is a fraud - 100% marketing 0% real security/privacy, if I 
was you I would send it back and buy a KCMA-D8 or a TALOS 2 depending on 
how much performance you need and how much you are willing to spend. (D8 
is FSF RYF and FSF RYF is pending for the T2, both have real open source 
firmware)


The firmware and hardware is entirely closed source and their marketing 
method of "reading it out to prove it hasn't been modified" relies in 
the cooperation of the firmware itself thus a modified firmware could 
simply send you a "clean" version as you aren't reading directly from a 
flash chip.


What "ORWL" mean by "open source hardware" is that they publish the 
layout files of the motherboard - thats it - there is nothing open 
source about the standard intel hardware they use.


It bothers me that people waste money on these slickly marketed frauds 
rather than spend on real libre hardware, some people even whine about 
the "overpriced" actual libre hardware but think nothing of spending 2K 
on a not really libre purism or what not - truly an example of the power 
of a slick marketing campaign.


My lord for the price of an "commercial grade ORWL" using crap standard 
(not even xeon) closed source intel hardware one could buy a TALOS 2, 
much much faster and for once actually open source hardware (one even 
has documentation on the POWER9 CPU and can modify the microcode as they 
please, thus entirely owner controlled) - another advantage of it being 
that one can use POWER-KVM and POWER-IOMMU virtualization technoogy to 
have many separate people using the same server with separate graphics 
cards, keyboards, mice, screens etc making the price palatable even for 
business desktop use.


(I only include recent hardware in this list, no one wants a X200)
Real open source hardware:
TALOS 2 (FYI this is fairly priced for server hardware in its 
performance class, it isn't meant for people who simply want an open 
source motherboard, of which a D8/D16 is better suited - it is meant for 
those who need extreme levels of performance and security) RYF cert 
pending on release

Novena laptop

Real open source firmware motherboards:
(No PSP/ME - can use coreboot with open source silicon init, vs purisms 
closed source silicon init coreboot)

KGPE-D16 - FSF RYF
KCMA-D8 - FSF RYF (this is what I use, $250 for mobo $40 for CPU and I 
play the latest games in a VM)

Lenovo G505S

If you don't have the cash for a T2 the D8/D16 have a quality 
feature-set including OpenBMC for open source remote management, one can 
also use them to play games in a VM as they have an IOMMU.

[qubes-users] Recover Windows after installing Q4.0

2017-12-04 Thread Shashank
Hi All, 

I installed qubes in legacy mode the installation went perfect

After I change back my boot settings to UEFI, I get an error saying bootable 
device not found

As suggested previously by one of the members I ran the command sudo cfdisk 
which does seem to show info about windows. 

Is there any way I can boot back into windows. I desperately need help with 
this. 

So if I run sudo cfdisk in dom0 it shows

/dev/sda1 EFI system
/dev/sda2 Microsoft System
/dev/sda3 Microsoft basic data
/dev/sda4 Windows recovery environment
/dev/sda5 Bios boot
/dev/sda6 Linux
/dev/sda7 Linux

Thanks

So in windows I created a partition on my harddrive with 80 gb space. Installed 
qubes on that space to dual boot.

Initially with uefi mode I wasn't able to install it, so switched to Legacy.

But falling back to uefi won't boot into windows

Hi, 

So if I run sudo cfdisk in dom0 it shows

/dev/sda1 EFI system
/dev/sda2 Microsoft System
/dev/sda3 Microsoft basic data
/dev/sda4 Windows recovery environment
/dev/sda5 Bios boot

In my boot menu I changed to Legacy in order to try and install qubes which did 
sucessfully.

After the installation I restarted the computer in Bios switched to UEFI back 
again and restarted

I get an error saying no bootable device

In dom0 run 'sudo cfdisk' (assuming you only have one disk - if not ,use
cfdisk /dev/sda, or cfdisk /dev/sdb)
That command will show you the partitions on your disk and you should
be able to see if you still have the Windows partitions.

If you had Windows booting in UEFI mode, and you have switched to legacy
boot, that would explain why you cant now boot Windows. It IS possible
to mix boot modes - first establish exactly what position you are in and
then we may be able to help.

Would love to, but there is only one USB controller on this laptop.  It kinda

If you search this list you will find some proposed solutions -  you
need to stop the kernel from hiding the usb controllers from dom0 and
then stop sys-usb from booting because that will then capture the
devices.

There was a thread on this a couple of months back - "How to recover
Qubes when keyboard / mice is dysfunctional due to USB qubes setup
issues?"
Look at my proposal and see if you can fit it to your case.

Re: [qubes-users] Where is Chrome once installed?

On 12/04/2017 03:00 PM, Ray Joseph wrote:

How to do I get Chrome up?


Take a look under /opt/google/chrome and it should be there, and thus 
visible in all the VM's based on that template you installed it in. You 
should have a google-chrome.desktop file in /usr/share/applications 
which will allow you to use the menu "add More Shortcuts.." entry to add 
it to your selected VM's menus.


If you work from the command line you may have to add this directory to 
your PATH environment variable in your .bashrc file as well. I just add 
a link to my /opt/bin directory and add that one directory to my path. 
Your mileage may vary depending on how you like to do it.





The instructions worked great:
I right clicked on the desktop, highlited 'personal', selected Firefox from the 
context menu.
Firefoxed worked, so I navigated to this forum, found this thread and copied 
the line to install Chromium.

I opened a Fedora25 template, terminal and
input -
sudo dnf install --enablerepo=google-chrome google-chrome-stable

answered 'yes' a couple of times and success.  It was done.

Back to dom0, right click on the desktop, selected applications, right clicked 
on Fedora 25 template and there was no Chromium, which I expected to look just 
like the personal Firefox.

Did I do something wrong?  What might I have missed?

BTW, I am a newbie, I have installed v3.2 for a couple weeks, moved to v4.0 
(experienced unstable USB), and loaded v4.0 rc1, rc2, and now rc3.  USB keeps 
getting more stable.  Sometimes the laptop still boots up without a keyboard or 
mouse.

If by "factory install" you mean reinstalling Windows, then maybe? I'm
not sure.

As for mounting /boot externally, you can do it with any Linux Live CD
(ex. Ubuntu). In fact, if you're lucky, some of the more modern ones
might even populate the file explorer with the various partitions on
your hard drive and you can use that instead to point and mount the
/boot partition.

Otherwise, you'll need to do it through the command line. There's lots
of examples on Google and YouTube; here's one using CentOS 6:

http://docs.intuitivetechnology.com/article/92-how-to-mount-linux-filesystem-from-a-live-cd-and-copy-a-backup

But it's essentially the same procedure no matter what distro's LiveCD
you use.

Good luck!

What no one who has responded to you has pointed out is that you are
making a basic mistake about the use of Templates. There is absolutely
no reason why you cant configure a Template, as you like.
DVM Templates can be configured, but need not be. They exist so that you
can rapidly spawn DisposableVMs.

The simplest way to get what you want is to fire up a Template (perhaps
cloned from a base template), open Firefox in the template and configure
it as you wish - install add-ins, change search engines etc.(To do this
or at least some of it you will of course have to open the firewall.)
Then qvm-create new appVMs based on that template - each will inherit the
base settings and each can be separately configured with new add-ins.
Bookmarks will be saved on a per appVM basis.

Be aware of course that each appVM will be linked by virtue of the
common template. If you are particularly keen to keep some qubes
separate, then I would suggest using different templates with different
browsers. Just a thought.

Edit:  Sorry, I meant vmlinuz files, not initramfs img files. Then
again, my systems use Legacy Boot rather than EFI; I'm not sure if they
get properly deleted automatically on a proper EFI system.

Assuming you're replying to my suggestion to recover all drive space, then
yes, that would wipe Windows 10 as well.

I finally had time to play around with this and I hit the same issue in
my FC 26 build template (dkms status u2mfn yields an empty string). I
don't know how my machine got into this state in the first place (I
suspect it was an issue upgrading from FC25 to FC26), but it's easily
fixable.

Two things to do:

First, verify the version of u2mfn in /usr/src of your build template by
running:

ls /usr/src

There *should* be only one version, but in my case I had two (if anyone
else out there is in the same boat, read on).

Second, we need to tell dkms of u2mfn's existence. 3.2.5 is the latest
version of u2mfn, so I'm going to assume this is the one we're going to
be working with. To fix the empty string issue, simply re-register the
module with dkms by running:

sudo dkms add -m u2mfn -v 3.2.5

And that should fix it. You can verify it by running:

dkms status u2mfn

and it should no longer return an empty string.

Now, if you have an older version of u2mfn in there (in my case, it was
3.2.4 which was the FC25 version), you'll need to remove it.

Run:

sudo rpm -e qubes-kernel-vm-support

and it'll spit out the full package names of the two versions of the
package on your system.

To remove the older one (I'll assume it's 3.2.4), you would run rpm -e
with the full package name (ex. sudo rpm -e
qubes-kernel-vm-support-3.2.4-1.fc25 or something like that).

BUT it will probably not work because that version of the module isn't
registered with dkms either. So you'll need to do the same thing as with
3.2.5 above:

sudo dkms add -m u2mfn -v 3.2.4

And then you can re-run the rpm -e command again and this time, it
should work and your system should be back to its expected state.

Note that for anyone on R3.2, you *won't* be able to compile kernel 4.14
on an FC26 template because it will link to FC26's openssl-1.1.0 and
FC23 only has openssl-1.0.2 and thus it won't install in dom0. You'll
either need to compile that kernel on an FC25 template or older (which
sucks, since FC25 is EOL on Dec. 12), *or* figure out how to upgrade
openssl in R3.2 dom0 to version 1.1.0 (possible, but not trivial).

Re: [qubes-users] Where is Chrome once installed?

2017-12-04 Thread Ray Joseph
How to do I get Chrome up?

The instructions worked great:
I right clicked on the desktop, highlited 'personal', selected Firefox from the 
context menu.
Firefoxed worked, so I navigated to this forum, found this thread and copied 
the line to install Chromium.

I opened a Fedora25 template, terminal and
input -
sudo dnf install --enablerepo=google-chrome google-chrome-stable 

answered 'yes' a couple of times and success.  It was done.

Back to dom0, right click on the desktop, selected applications, right clicked 
on Fedora 25 template and there was no Chromium, which I expected to look just 
like the personal Firefox.

Did I do something wrong?  What might I have missed?  

BTW, I am a newbie, I have installed v3.2 for a couple weeks, moved to v4.0 
(experienced unstable USB), and loaded v4.0 rc1, rc2, and now rc3.  USB keeps 
getting more stable.  Sometimes the laptop still boots up without a keyboard or 
mouse.

Here is what i have done, not perfect but might help:
i have started a vm as soon as i have installed Qubes (at this point
every vm has equal level of trust, in your case use a trusted one).
set up all the firefox settings: instal addons, clear bookmarks, change
settings...
After i copied the whole firefox profile in each vm so that in each vm
that need firefox you have a good base settings.
In the end i have fixed minor things like installing flash only in
untrasted domain. adding the bookmark of bank in banking.

As far as i know the only way is to set up every vm manually, but as i
said you can start from a good level of personalization and tweek only
minor settings.

you can have bookmarks and custom settings also in dispvm (at least in
3.2, i haven't installed 4 yet)

Re: [qubes-users] What's the best way to share Firefox add-ons among VMs and have separate bookmarks and settings per VM?

2017-12-04 Thread Steve Coleman
If I understand your needs correctly, you can setup each VM/firefox to 
use the Firefox sync using the same firefox account, and then adjust the 
firefox account configuration to only sync the add-on's. Most people 
want bookmarks sync'ed, but then that is easily turned off in that 
account configuration. The bookmarks won't change but you will bet 
add-on updates in each VM.

I am new to Qubes OS.

My understanding is that TemplateVMs are for installing software, DVM

AppVMs are based on TemplateVMs.
DispVMs are based on DVM Templates.

I have a standard set of Firefox add-ons that I like to install 
(particularly privacy-based ones). I'd ideally like all my Firefox 
instances to have these add-ons. I assume I can do that by creating a 
DVM Template, installing Firefox add-ons there, and then using DispVMs.


The problem is that I also want to have different sets of bookmarks and

Since I want persistent bookmarks and settings, I assume I need to use 
an AppVM (one per domain) instead of a DispVM, but then I can't get a 
shared set of add-ons, since it's not recommended to configure anything 
in a TemplateVM (what AppVMs are based on).


What are my options for my use case (Firefox add-ons shared among VMs 
and separate bookmarks and settings per domain)?


I'm guessing the safest option would be to just set up Firefox from 
scratch in a bunch of AppVMs. I'm hoping there's a more convenient 
solution, but maybe this is a case where one has to sacrifice 
convenience for security.


Thanks!

If you can generalize the Firefox settings you could store a list of your
bookmarks in your Archive VM and copy and paste them out as needed. That
would let you use disposable templates. I think 4.0 also lets you have
multiple disposable VM templates. You could have three templates with
high, medium, low security settings for example and launch disposable VMs
from those, then copy and paste your shortcuts to those.

Just some thoughts!

Boot from a USB or CD live image on the same machine, mount the internal

You might also want to try switching from UEFI boot to legacy in the BIOS

See the first paragraph in https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/usb/ and the link
there.

If you want to try again once you get keyboard and mouse back, you can
manually create a sys-usb qube by carefully following the documentation on
that page under "Alternatively, you can create a USB qube manually as
follows:". It's for 3.2 but at first glance should work for 4.0 too.
Figure out which USB controller handles your keyboard and mouse and DO NOT
assign that one to sys-usb, but assign all the rest.

Blacklisting the controllers is an optional next step.

[qubes-users] Q4.0 rc-3 Installation

2017-12-04 Thread Shashank
Hello ,
I tried installing Qubes4.0 rc-3, and installation went through halfway and 
caused error. The error said it was caused by anaconda installer. Second time 
the installation fails in the beginning after about a min.

Error description says:
At least 3MB more required for /boot/efi

Any suggestions on what can be done? I tried installing it on a machine which 
had Qubes3.2 before.

Thank you

Shashank.

[qubes-users] Qubes R4: DispVM Template vs DispVM initial startup vs startup usability bug?

2017-12-04 Thread Patrick Schleizer
When trying to start a DispVM for the first time, it actually starts the
DispVM template such as whonix-ws-dvm. After shut down, using the very
same shortcut to start the DispVM, it starts an actual DispVM starting
Disp[...]. The user may be confusing the DispVM template for the actual
DispVM since there is no graphical explanation what is happening. Is
that right? If so, shall we open a usability bug?

Cheers,
Patrick

[qubes-users] Qubes R4: How to start the DispVM Template another time for reconfiguration?

2017-12-04 Thread Patrick Schleizer
How to start the DispVM Template (such as whonix-ws-dvm) for a second or
subsequent time?

When I start it the second time, it actually starts a DispVM named
Disp[...].

Cheers,
Patrick

[qubes-users] What's the best way to share Firefox add-ons among VMs and have separate bookmarks and settings per VM?

2017-12-04 Thread Rory
Pretty much security for convenience. Make a throw away firefox account with 
what you need and sync it. Then remove account but keep plugins and all on it.
