Do `sudo dnf install blueman` in the sys-usb templateVM (probably fedora-26), shut it and sys-usb down. Then start sys-usb again.

I'm sorry i was laughing at Joanna's comments. Do you mean how to enable it manually, or if Qubes is going to support it? I personally wouldn't want bluetooth either man. Maybe you hold your phone too close to it one day haha. Or someone uses some booster outside your house to reach it who knows. i mean anything can happen and taking over dom0 is game over. defeats the purpose of using Qubes which tries to isolate hardware from dom0. It is recommended to use usb with a computer that has the Qubes hardware requirements to be able to isolate the usb controllers from dom0. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
