[qubes-users] Network hardware not recognized in Debian-based NetVM
Hello, Although the default NetVM in Qubes is based on Fedora, I wanted to be able to use NetworkManager 1.4.2 to automatically spoof my MAC address when connecting to networks. In order to do this, I followed the instructions here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/anonymizing-your-mac-address/ I created a new template for Debian 9 as instructed, then created a new NetVM from that template and added the Network Connections app to it, as well as my WiFi adapter (under the Devices tab). However, the Debian-based NetVM will not see the hardware. The Fedora-based NetVM can see it fine, but when I power that down and power up the Debian-based VM, no such luck. I am running Qubes 3.2 with all the latest updates applied. This email was sent from a Firefox session inside a disposable VM, so I know using the Fedora-based NetVM works. I also created additonal NetVMs based on Fedora, Debian 8, and Debian 9. The Debian-based NetVMs do not see my WiFi card. The Fedora-based NetVM does. Any advice would be very appreciated.

[qubes-users] backup
Hi fellows, I started using qubes a while ago and I have a question concerning backups. What I want is a complete backup to a dedicated external USB HDD. I understand to achieve this all the VMs must be shut down. Therefore when I plugged in the HDD I mounted it in dom0 under /mnt. Questions: 1. When I ran Qubes VM Manager -> Backup VMs, I received an error message stating no place on device and a zero byte backup file. Permissions are OK, there's more than enough space on the HDD. Any reasons why the backup did not succeed? 2. I tried running qvm-backup from the command line, which ran fine, no permission problems on the same HDD. However, the template VMs are not included by default and I saw no command-line option to automatically achieve this. Am I missing something here? 3. I know I can manually list all the VMs on the command line to be backed up, but I find that a bit awkward, so I tried this: qvm-ls --raw-list | xargs qvm-backup /mnt/test/ but this threw a Python exception... For now I resorted to typing all the VMs by hand ... not elegant. Any help is appreciated.
