It worked.

And it’s also possible to use the Alt key instead in the key combination
for secure copy and paste. Just write “Alt” instead of one of the other
keys.

Here (https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/5707) I got told by
Andrew David Wong that it is needed to delete the “#” sign on the edited
lines to change their status from a comment to a script that is going to be
executed.

So here are the steps to change the key combination for secure copy and
paste:

   1. Write this in the dom0 terminal (you might have to use root access):
   nano etc/qubes/guid.conf
   2. Change “Ctrl-Shift-c” to for example “Shift-Mod4-c”  (Mod4 is the Win
   key)
   3. Change “Ctrl-Shift-v” to for example “Shift-Mod4-v”
   4. Delete the “#” sign in the beginning of this/these line(s) (to change
   there status to a executive script).
   5. Save the file by pressing Ctrl + X, press Y and then Enter.
   6. Restart the pc to begin using the new key combination for secure copy
   and paste.

According to the following page, it should be possible to change the keys
used for secure copy and paste text between different domains:

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/copy-paste/#shortcut-configuration

But now I have tried to change the keys for secure copy and paste to
“Shift-Mod4-C” and “Shift-Mod4-V”. And restart the pc afterwards. But that
didn’t help either.

So I still can’t copy and paste text between different domains.

So it seems to be a bug that needs fixing...

[qubes-users] How to change the keys for secure copy and paste between VM’s ?

2020-02-25 Thread A
How to change the keys for secure copy and paste between VM’s ?

I have tried to change the keys in this file: etc/qubes/guid.conf to  Ctrl + 
Alt + C  and  Crtl + Alt + V  But that didn’t work. Maybe because it isn’t 
possible to use the Alt key here as it isn’t listed as a “valid modifier key 
name” according to the text in the file.

As my dom0 both uses the Ctrl + Shift and Ctrl + Win combination to something 
different, I need to change the combination for secure copy and paste. How do I 
do that ?
