[qubes-users] mouse lagging with sys-usb in Qubes 3.2
Since I created a sys-usb device and connected the mouse with passthrough to dom0 (I answered yes the first time) the mouse is lagging significantly. I even changed the attributes from mouse properties from the GUI menu but nothing happens. It's a laptop so touchpad is working perfectly. Why does it lag so much? Output of qubes.InputMouse: sys-usb dom0 allow,user=root $anyvm $anyvm deny -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Ledger Nano S on QubesOS 3.2 not working
I am following instructions from other posts I read. I do a usb passthrough and attach the ledger to the VM. In the VM's template I ran the udev rules from ledger website and add OWNER="user". Then the AppVM should boot with these udev rules too. But when I open Chrome it doesn't work. Is there any command I can verify at least in the AppVM that it is visible? I am using the updated Debian9 image. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] HVM resolution not working by changing xorg.conf
I installed an HVM of Linux Mint 18 on a laptop. I followed everything that is in the HVM tips and changed the driver to vesa, the horiz sync to 30-60 the vert refresh to 40-80 (and tried without it). I tried hardcoding resolutions and not hardcoding them. I get a sync problem as long as I log in (the login screen is huge but ok). Then it's all totally fuzzy. What else can I try?

Hi thanks I will try that. I am using Ubuntu because Debian 8 is such a pain when installing new software. You need to enable testing and unstable repos and then you end up with a mixed system then things break down etc. Ubuntu 16 is for sure compatible with most software oob for the next 2 years. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Trying to install Ubuntu as HVM can't restart
I feel like a total idiot here but here is what I am doing: 1) I make an HVM (tried both normal and template) and then assign more disk space to it. 2) I download the ubuntu iso file for desktop. 3) I run qvm-start ubuntu --cdrom=vmpath:/home/user/downloads/xxx.iso 4) I run the installation that surprisingly finishes ultra fast. There are two disks one is xvda and xvdb. The first has the space that VM has for "personal usage" and the second for "system". I tried installing on both with same result. 5) As the installation finishes when I shutdown the machine it doesn't shutdown. A black window keeps on. Then I kill it with Qubes-manager. 6) after that it doesn't start. It says booting from hard drive but nothing happens. I tried many times. What am I doing wrong? thanks in advance -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
