[qubes-users] No disk visible in Qubes installation.

[shashank . a144]

Hi,

I am a fairly new linux user and so far have been using ubuntu and debian8. 
Trying to install Qubes 3.2 in my xps 15 9560. I used a usb to write the iso 
using Rufus and I could pretty much get to point where I had to select the 
device(internal storage) to install the os on. I had made a partion of my disk. 
But it so happens that there are no disks listed to select. Can anyone please 
help me with this. Also I was wondering if the SATA needs to be in AHCI instead 
of RAID like it is now. I got a new laptop for Qubes, do not want to give it 
back disappointed. New to this group, so if there is any mistake or if I did 
not follow a certain code in here please excuse me and let me know what I can 
do.

Regards

Shashank

Sorry, I shouldn't mix these up: The "UpdateVM" proxies _dom0_
updates. It doesn't necessarily run an instance of the (completely
different) "Updates Proxy" for VM updates. But anyway, the latter is
non-caching.

[qubes-users] Win7 template serial number activation

[Franz]

Hello friends,
I need to install Win7 for the first time after years and wonder if it is
possible to activate a template Win7 with the proper serial number and then
have child VMs that are already activated and keep so over time.
Best
Fran

It'd be fine to install the nvidia proprietary drivers in dom0, but looking at 
the documentation on the qubes project site, the guidelines are a bit outdated 
and i cant seem to be able to follow the procedure, do you know any other more 
updated tutorial that would work on an updated qubes installation?

what version of fedora is it based on, now?

What? there are still many decent new games being released. I play BF4 
and only encounter obvious cheaters once in a blue moon and they always 
get banned by stat based anti-cheat like fairfight (server side 
anti-cheat is the only way to go, no bullshit kernel drivers required 
either)


Consoles suck, even the new versions of the PS4/Xbone can't play at 
native resolutions with at least 60FPS and once the OEM shuts down the 
servers your games are useless - people are still playing BF1942 because 
they were able to easily reverse engineer a master server and anyone can 
DL the server files but that wouldn't be possible on a console.
Not to mention the DRM and always-online requirements for singleplayer 
games (yeah PC is DRM'ed too, but there are still great AAA games that 
get released without it such as The Witcher 3 and the Metro series)


Piracy doesn't result in bad game sales, only bad games do and denuvo 
proves that - the witcher 3 released without DRM sold many more copies 
in the first week than Mass Effect 3.

I'm not convinced becase my stretch works as expected without gvfs-bin,
but it is built not upgraded. gvfs-bin brings in gvfs-common, so it may
be  that that's what iss required and isnt in a Jesie-upgarded system.

At this stage I would start again with a clean template, make sure it's
working and then run the update again. (You can always reinstall the
original template from your install medium, if you didnt clone it, which
I hope you did.)

Hi,

This is a known bug affecting Fedora-24 and Debian-8 based qubes. There
is already a fix in testing which will be pushed out soon.

In the meantime, if you do something to trigger that qube, like open a
terminal, it should give you back control.

cheers

[qubes-users] AppVM windows freezing after recent update

[cubit]

Hello Qubers.

I am sorry but this is going to be a little vague as I have not been able to 
pinpoint much but hoping someone knows a solution or is at least having same 
problem.

Since updating dom0 and my appVM templates last Sunday I am having problems 
with windows in my appVMs being unresponsive to mouse input.  I can not scroll 
or select items in windows.   The menus work in so much as they show the list 
but clicking itemes in the menus of a window does nothing.   Trying to click X 
to close a window does nothing. Some examples.  if I open Nautilus I can 
not select directories to change to or files to open,  firefox will not scroll 
windows.    The only way around this is to shutdown the problem AppVM via VM 
manager and try again,  some times it works first times around, some times I 
have to shut down the AppVM multiple times.

I'm running Qubes 3.2 with Fedora 24 and Debian 8 app templates/vms

[qubes-users] Error Installing Qubes OS on Dell E6420

[Alejandro Berlanga]

Hi everyone,

First of all I am very new to this system so thanks for your patience.
Well, I have a Dell Latitude E6420 that they gave to me at work, and I want to 
install this system. Th main problem is that it installed normally but when it 
is the first boot and I try to setup everything it freezes and the only way to 
unfreeze it is to do hard shutdown. Any help in what maybe I am doing wrong?

Thank You :3

Actually I called dota2 and cs:go popular, but only by linux standards.  
millions at a time playing LoL compared to maybe 50,000 playing dota2, 20,000 
playing cs:go and I'm sure those numbers are fabricated. And thats world wide.

And I find it such a shame that only moba games are popular.  But they are the 
hardest games for anarchists to undermine I guess...

Hi,

Sorry I replied from my phone in a rush, you are right what I'm modifying is 
the resolv.conf file. When I add there let's say 8.8.8.8, it resolves, so the 
problem seems to be that the template or appVMs cannot connect to sys-fw to 
resolve DNS names, and this seems to be due to the lack of those iptables rules 
that are not created for some reason.

The issues applies to both, the template VM and the app VM

You have a ps4 and you want to game on the pc?  why?  Pc gaming died a decade 
ago cause piraters, cheaters, and ddos.

League of Legends is the only pc game on windows I would consider "popular" tks 
to asian countries who take e-sports as serious as football. But On Linux the 
only popular games are cs:go and Dota2 and unless you're a gaming pro or 
someone who doesn't mind trolls, that would be sadistic...lol

I would stick to single player games for consoles until they start jailing kids 
like in Japan and Korea.  Man do I miss ea-sports on the pc. 95-2005 was a 
great decade.

Hardware industry has been steady tankin since, and I don't blame tablets or 
smartphones.  I built a computer for the first time in years only for Qubes,   
but no way I'd waste money on a gaming rig for me and my hardware to get abused.

I mean I guess you have a point though from a security point of view. But I use

you would have same issue on mainstream linux apparently man.  Nouveau is about 
the kernel version you are using.  Apparently even 4.9 might still not work 
correctly for you even on a baremetal fedora system with that card, as seen by 
the amount of people complaining on fedora forum threads.  Most people buy 
cards like that for gpu intensive processing like graphics design and gaming 
and use the nvidia proprietary drivers.  There seems to be no choice,  I guess 
if you want to use open source drivers,  your nvidia card has to be at least 
over two years old to ensure compatibility.

Re: [qubes-users] How does qvm-open-in-(d)vm determine which application to open a file in?

[u+qbsu]

Ok, so I did a bit of poking around.

xdg-open  returns:

xdg-mime: mimetype argument missing
Try 'xdg-mime --help' for more information.

Which fits with xdg-mime not being able to recognize the mimetype of
files.

This phenomenon is described in a post on Ask Ubuntu (from May 2016).
And the proposed solution is to install gvfs-bin.
https://askubuntu.com/questions/779717/xdg-open-stopped-working-since-16-04-upgrade

I did that -- and it worked! Just a shame this bug is still around after
a year (I know, others have been around for much longer).

Though I'm still wondering how qvm-open-in-dvm managed to pull it off
from the start.

I use a debian-8 template upgraded to unstable. The problem with
xdg-open (1.1.0 rc3; xdg-tools 1.1.1-1) seems to be that it does not
read ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list, regardless of filetype.

> If you run xdg-mime query default  in a disposableVM what do you

Interestingly running xdg-mime query default  returns the
correct application, but xdg-open still opens the file in the original
default application.

Using qvm-open-in-dvm with the same filetype from another VM opens it in
the correct application.

I just played a little and removed a lot of packages from the current

After removed (sudo dpkg --purge ) those let's run:
sudo apt-get autoremove

The result still contains more than the must have packages, but I not
purged the ones I actually need:
NetVM and FirewallVM related packages, vim, gnome-terminal and
standard networking tools

Of course it will not save disk space unless you free it using:
qvm-trim-template (from dom0)


Now my debian template is much closer to fedora-minimal - while still
booting and working :)

I'm pretty sure this is one of those distro/desktop things, because it
works for me as expected, although you havent said what application or
filetype is concerned. Nor what Template you are using.

It works as expected on Debian and Ubuntu DVMTemplates, using xdg-mime
default ..

If you run xdg-mime query default  in a disposableVM what do you get?

There are several reasons this can occurr...

1. There is something corrupt in the install.
2. It's trying to load the GUI but can't because it's trying to use the Qubes 
Video Driver but that's disabled. (Make sure the template has seamless mode 
turned off as well as everything else, the AppHVM too.)
3. It's trying to do something and is about to BSOD.
4. It's just taking forever because it may be trying to move the user profiles 
and do other configurations.
5. ETC.. (There are others, but those 4 are the most common reasons.)

If that is the case, try booting to LOW RESOLUTION mode.
