You may want to take a look at Fedora's Silverblue immutable desktop operating system. I had problems installing the latest version but conceptually the OS in time will be a good alternative to Qubes which I use as my daily driver. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Fedora-29 Template Updates Kernel Question
Hi All, I updated my Fedora-29 template today and I noticed that it installed vmlinux-4.20.5-200.fc29.x86_64. After a reboot, the fedora-29 template says 4.14.74-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64 which is the same as dom0. I am new to Qubes so I do not understand why the fedora-29 updated the kernel to 4.20 but did not boot to that kernel but instead stayed at 4.14 like dom0. tia -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

In the untangle-firewall HVM, I added sys-net in the Networking field. I have a disposable qube which has the untangle-firewall in the Networking field. When I start the disposable qube, I do see that the untangle-firewall qube added a vif interface but it has no ip address and is down and the untangle firewall does not recognize the vif interface in its configuration gui. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
