[qubes-users] Re: Qubes Bluetooth (mouse)

2016-07-31 Thread Iestyn Best
Hi,

I am using a bluetooth mouse (Mad Catz M.O.U.S 9) via the sys-usb VM where it 
is passing through the functionality via some form of Qubes input passthrough 
to the rest of the system.

This seems to be working fine for me. The general functions of the mouse all 
seem to work fine; ie. movement, left/right/middle clicks, back/forward buttons 
and scrolling.

The one thing I haven't figured out, and haven't really looked into at the 
moment, is that it doesn't auto connect at start up. Each time I boot the 
computer I have to open a console for sys-usb and power on the bluetooth and 
then connect the mouse.

Just thought I would share my experience even though I thought it would be 
something that would cause more trouble.

Something I would like to look into in the future is the possibility of 
bluetooth headset. Could we get this connected to the sys-usb and have the 
audio, and possibly mic, passed through via some form of qubes audio mixer.

Regards,
Iestyn Best

Hi,

I have been interested in an idea like that as I could see it beneficial for 
many organisations but currently I have had no actual driving need for it at 
this time.

I would be interested in hearing of something like this is happening or even 
possible.

Appreciate all the work the Qubes team has been doing.

2016-07-31 Thread Iestyn Best
Hi Ben,

Do the rest of your default VMs install?

If not, you can retry configuration by calling 'sudo qubesctl state.highstate' 
in a console in dom0.

This seems to be coming up as a common problem at the moment with the R3.2 
releases.

Thank you guys, great work.

Just a little side note, yesterday when I updated it seemed to break my window

I have not tried KDE again today, just trying to get use to XFCE now as that is

@Marek please correct me if I am wrong but I believe that all standard 
templates (ie. fedora, debian and whonix) are installed even if you select the 
option "do not configure anything", it just should not create any appVMs.

[qubes-users] Re: Qubes, Windows7 and Domain join

2016-07-14 Thread Iestyn Best
That should work fine as the Qubes Windows Tools work with Win7.

You can create a HVM and install it with windows then install the QWT which 
will help with the network config of the VM. Once done, and as long as you are 
connected to a network with access to the domain, you should be able to join 
that domain.

I have done this in the past.

If you have any problems, just let us know.

Iestyn Best

Hi Drew,

This has been answered previously. The "kscreen" app was missed when they made 
the ISO and they have said that it will be put in the next release candidate.

If you want your screen settings options to be available, you can use the 
following command to install "kscreen".

>From console in Dom0:
sudo qubes-dom0-update kscreen

[qubes-users] SCCM Task Sequence in HVMTemplate

2016-07-07 Thread Iestyn Best
Hi,

I have just reinstalled Qubes using the 3.2-rc1 and I am trying to install my 
company SOE into a VM but I have had no luck so far.

Our company uses SCCM to deploy the image.

So far I have tried:
 * Using PXE boot using iPXE but I am not sure what to chain to
 * Using a boot ISO with the SCCM task sequence but as the VM is in a different 
network, it cannot get DHCP. Also, the static IP options via MDT are bugged and 
I cannot set a static IP.
 * I tried turning off the sys-net vm and assigning the physical nic to the 
HVMTemplate but when I boot the ISO it does not recognise the NIC.
 * Tried creating a bridge with the sys-net vm but had no luck as the details 
are old.

I am looking to see if anyone has any suggestions they could provide to help me 
get the SOE installed via the network deployment capability. If I could PXE 
boot would probable be the best, but I assume just getting the DHCP and network 
access to pass through (possibly via temporary bridge) would achieve what I am 
looking to do.

Regards,
Iestyn Best

Firstly, thank you (and all the Qubes-OS team) for all your great work and

[qubes-users] Re: i2p AppVM

2016-05-25 Thread Iestyn Best
Hi,

I am not sure if many people here have started using that service.

Sounds like you may need to set it up as a ProxyVM similar to the way 
people setup a TorVM (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/torvm/). This would be 
the location in which you would install the I2P software to enable the 
appropriate network access.

You probably then need to setup a separate AppVM that is configured to us 
the proxyVM. This is where your browser or other software would be 
configured to use the ProxyVM to access the I2P network.

This is just my interpretation of what may be required but I have not 
tested.

If you do work something out, it would be good if you can share for people 
in the future to have a starting point that has been tested.

Regards,
Iestyn Best
