[qubes-users] Re: HCL - cirrus7 nimbini v3 (NUC12WSHv5)

2023-06-06 Thread 'sonnenfinsternis' via qubes-users



After more than a week of intensive use, I haven't noticed any problems so far. 
The "cirrus7 nimbini v3" (or presumably all NUC12WSHv5) seemed to be suitable 
hardware for anyone who wants to use QubesOS as a desktop system. 
Do I still have to submit something to be included in the HCl or do I just need 
some more patience ;-) 
Kind regards from an enthusiastic QubesOS fan :)

Sounds helpful, I'll try it when I get a chance, thanks :) After reading this 
[1], I can now even use my USB mouse directly after booting, without having to 
assign it to dom0 first. So slowly but surely I'm warming up to QubesOS. A 
wonderful system :) Now if I can just find a way to see how much processor load 
and memory is currently being used globally, I'll have all the pressing open 
construction sites taken care of for the time being. Over the weekend I will 
switch to a QubesOS installation as my new device for daily use. I am excited 
and glad that this project exists with this great community :)

[qubes-users] HCL - cirrus7 nimbini v3 (NUC12WSHv5)

2023-05-24 Thread 'sonnenfinsternis' via qubes-users


Here's my review of the cirrus7 nimbini v3, which is largely based on the Intel 
NUC 12 (NUC12WSHv5). QubesOS with the "kernel latest" option runs great. Most 
importantly, it is a dream to work on a fanless computer that still runs 
completely silent under heavy load despite various Qubes running in parallel 
including several standalone machines.

Best regards :-)

2023-05-24 Thread 'sonnenfinsternis' via qubes-users
First of all, thank you Kamil Aronowski for the long answer. There was a lot in 
it that helped me. :)

It might be clearest if I sort my answer by the numbering of my original 
questions:

1) I am still looking for a way to display the real global processor load and 
the real total global RAM usage in Qubes. Unfortunately I haven't found 
anything yet -_-.

2) I'll just stick with the existing ready-made templates for Linux then. If 
there is a clickable solution at some point, I would still be very interested 
in it though!

3) Too bad, but could have been. Then we just stick to opening qvm-template-gui 
via the terminal in dom0. It's not witchcraft, I just thought that maybe I 
missed the link in the GUI.

4) Interesting, thanks!

5) The question about autocomplete in the terminal has been resolved. This was 
indeed not due to QubesOS but to the fact that the bash-completion package is 
not pre-installed by default in Debian. But this can be easily fixed:

[qubes-users] Beginner questions

2023-05-09 Thread 'sonnenfinsternis' via qubes-users
Hi there :)

I've only been using QubesOS for two weeks and so far I'm totally thrilled! 
Thanks to all who contribute to this wonderful project :-) 
But there are a few questions that I have not been able to clarify online or 
with friends, so I would like to try here:

1) Is there somewhere in the GUI an overview of the real processor load of the 
device? I think the percentage display in the upper right corner of the Qube 
overview shows this relative to the allocated cores. The task manager in dom9, 
however, only shows the load of dom0. Or have I misunderstood this?

2) I have a Windows Qube as a standalone VM. The integration works fine thanks 
to qubes-windows-tools. But is there something similar for standalone Linux 
VMs? Assuming there is a LinuxMint in a standalone qube: What is the best way 
to exchange files or pass the clipboard to other "normal" Qubes? Via a USB 
stick? Surely there is a software solution :)

3) How do I know that there is a new template, e.g. Fedora 38? Do I have to 
check this myself regularly under qvm-template-gui? And while we are at it: Do 
I reach qvm-template-gui also somehow with the mouse over the gui?

4) I got to thinking when I saw that there is his fedora-37-xfce template. Is 
it possible to start the desktop in an app VM based on it? Does this actually 
work in general in a qube that is not a standalone installation? Or can I 
always start only individual programs?

5) And why does the tab completion in the terminal often not work in the Debian 
templates? Especially when installing software with "sudo apt install xyz" I 
have problems, because I have to know exactly what the packages are called.

I hope that I have not outed myself as a complete idiot with these questions. 
But I honestly haven't been able to figure them out for myself so far, so I 
wanted to put them up for debate here. Maybe there are other newbies like me 
with similar questions.

Regards and thanks for reading :)
