[qubes-users] A quick survey on usage patterns?

Hi everyone, anyone willing to share how do you use Qubes environment: tempaltes, VMs, etc? I think besides "tinfoil hat" community many of us do still use traditional services like dropbox, g suite, signal, telegram etc. How do you manage that? A signle VM for several apps? One VM per app? Ho

Ah. As I said, it is all tricky. First, enable legacy boot. It is greyed out in bios setup; you need to turn off "modern standby" first. Now you can boot. But, it is going to be 800x600 and no network (neither wired or wireless). On the next step you need a USB network card. Once you get *some*

[qubes-users] Intel CPU frequency scaling and boost mode?

Hi fellow qubes users, I just installed (not to say it was easy) Qubes on gen10 intel NUC. It has a "mobile" type CPU, 1.6Ghz with turbo boost up to 4GHz. However, Xentop never shows frequencies higher than 1.6 no matter if I have a CPU-intensive task or not. Does turbo boost work as expected?
