Same as with the 4.8.12-12 That means quite a lot of hardware does not work or are not recognised by the kernel. This is on a very recent i5-7200U based ASUS B9440U laptop with its accompaining USB-C dock. Powermanagemet in general is sorely missing on laptop with Qubes. (batterylife is 3-4 hours instead of approx. 10, the monitor backlight never turns off despite the screensaver turning the screen black, the keyboard backlight does not work and the fan runs nearly all the time. > 4) General feedback on the 4.9 kernel. > Well I look forward to kernel 4.10 and 4.11 and hope to see them soon on Qubes. Othervise I will have to end my Qubes experiment on this laptop and install something else, in order to get actual work done.

The newer 4.9.35-19 kernel has a side-effect: The return of an old problem where netVMs refuse to start unless an appVM has already been started.

My Lenovo T450 working fine with kernel 4.4 Jut tried the latest 4.9.31 and has some interesting graphic related issues: Under KDE, the application icons in the taskbar are messed up. Means broken application images are displayed. Broken means some kind of transition between the last visited desktop icons and the current one. The problem disappear (probably refreshing to a valid icon) by the time. But messing up again if I switch virtual desktops. Which I do very often. A refresh is surely occures if I switch out to a CLI terminal and back. But the result is just temporary, as if I switching virtual desktops the icons are getting messed up again and again. Switched back to kernel 4.4 solved these problems, so it is less likely a hardware bug. - -- Zrubi -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJZQnItAAoJEH7adOMCkunmQd4QAKMmqPxeCEw7MYJSUvwPQKl1 vbnIb/Mw4emE8wtsYOe9kHBZBrw6qMMxXYFZRPH3BBTQiZo+EgMLNBw2E+VsC490 mMovL9JmSHB1KcHqkmXjqhz7q5Qrpbh10CApGpRKl5seNFKH9MT5L4GAJ+r6CUx9 YMdQu++P85xZJ4sSa/3vmp2hU4rljgr9KbCSojTjnLw0B+o+WlMxA84OSh/gHkLu qM+gIJHUkCCRVA7XPUQMldgYDSOpLErtfoQqvK9WExqjuLqzGc6c9swt96fsj8Ah BuLR9ekcoYFq3mD+TbcPx6BxJL2awcibYC17yYWw5PUwoQKsWTboLGDorha7faAe nNfoOf35OSI3qaJlcbAo6dJ6nKZgeGtVGt6Gckqn+IGw8+cmjEq1AwRW0Agwhgq3 YRBc9kRApLTSDhu1ze+Io6/CejZ/xK655WQ/mvZthVSkfxsvyCrDYHrlPiD7KT+v NJaDZks5H/s+ukim7kEqnqInt0E6+c0tmsspj2l7+nH6tXQNzR8cauT+y+C+Skkj OAse+ZyRA2EBBHDRzCuTAe1teLjnSEUhnsEfmfB9WRgCQj2D1+wKiMC4PWOKs/sn 5j6FGpGq/w3vNVgYhS1iDffw90obYZVH1HZIcxbIV8H157ftpN1ZXHgYJa6raLhf 5V9+wHj/2pbdSXLHsSAU =xp8D -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-devel" group.
