[qubes-users] Qubes OS 4.0.2-rc3 has been released!
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 Dear Qubes Community, We're pleased to announce the third release candidate for Qubes 4.0.2! Features: - - All 4.0 dom0 updates to date - - Fedora 30 TemplateVM - - Debian 10 TemplateVM - - Whonix 15 Gateway and Workstation TemplateVMs - - Linux kernel 4.19 by default Qubes 4.0.2-rc3 is available on the Downloads page: https://www.qubes-os.org/downloads/ What is a point release? A point release does not designate a separate, new version of Qubes OS. Rather, it designates its respective major or minor release (in this case, 4.0) inclusive of all updates up to a certain point. Installing Qubes 4.0 and fully updating it results in the same system as installing Qubes 4.0.2. What should I do? = If you installed Qubes 4.0 or 4.0.1 and have fully updated [1], then your system is already equivalent to a Qubes 4.0.2 installation. No further action is required. Regardless of your current OS, if you wish to install (or reinstall) Qubes 4.0 for any reason, then the 4.0.2 ISO makes this more convenient and secure, since it bundles all Qubes 4.0 updates to date. *Note:* At 4.5 GiB, the Qubes 4.0.2-rc3 ISO will not fit on a single-layer DVD (for the technical details underlying this, please see issue #5367 [2]). Instead, we recommend copying the ISO onto a sufficiently large USB drive. [3] However, if you would prefer to use optical media, we suggest selecting a dual-layer DVD or Blu-ray disc. Release candidate planning == If no major issues are discovered in 4.0.2-rc3, we expect the stable release of 4.0.2 to follow in a few weeks. As usual, you can help by [reporting any bugs you encounter][reporting-bugs].

Re: [qubes-users] Qubes booting in machine with Windows and Linux
I tried doing what you mentioned. It seems that I can either boot to Qubes OR Grub where I can choose between Linux and Windows. I would like the Qubes boot manager to control everything so when I start the computer, I can choose between the 3 OSes. What do I need to put into either Grub or Qube's configuration file to do this? I've looked up and tried different lines of code with no success, but I have no coding experience.

Re: [qubes-users] Re: How do I attach a hard drive to a VM on boot?
No, it's been consistent for a few weeks now, so I'm not going to worry about it. I did find another way to screw up, though. I attached the drive persistently to my "untrusted" VM, and then put the mount in /etc/fstab in the debian-10 template, so it would persist also. That worked fine for the untrusted VM, but none of the other debian-based VMs would start, since they couldn't mount /dev/sda3. Sigh. So, now I have to figure out how to add that to the fstab just for "untrusted." I saw some instructions, involving adding an echo command to an rc script, but haven't tried it yet. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] UEFI black screen stall
Hey I recently made a post about x start up failing, I'm thinking this was from trying to run a raid configuration between two m2 drives in a sata adapter case. After I stopped doing that I have not seen the same error. Now I am onto another problem and can just taste qubes os finally working again lol, this problem happens after install reboot, everything goes good untill it hits the finaly boot up and goes to a black screen and freezes, I have tried to do the mapbs=1 noexitboot=1 Work around adding it under both kernels when I reboot it doesnt do anything and I get the same black screen. If you are a pro at qubes you can msg me direct as well and i have no problem throwing you some money if you can expediate my head aches. Or you can comment here as well both work either way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Re: X Startup Failed
Master Node: I will try to not top post iv read how it's done but it does not seem to have worked on my last msg, I dont see any other way to rely and I'm replying to the last msg of this thread. My intel cpu is a i7-4930MX with haswell gpu integrated. As I said before my whole system worked amazing before the DGPUs died on me, they were actually 2 different gpus to one was a gtx 675m and the other I can not figure out what it is as of yet. But this is pretty interesting that qubes worked perfect on 2 different nvidia gpus and now wont work on the integrated intel gpu. All the bios settings are right but x startup fails. Okay, now we're getting somewhere, but you still haven't answered half of my questions. Are you doing the reinstall with the exact same Qubes version (ISO) that worked before? What version? This error is happening when you try to boot the installer itself (from USB), correct? Did you try "nomodeset", or the failsafe boot option? The noveau options probably have no effect, since you don't have any Nvidia cards at this point. It would be helpful to see the exact X log/error, even if you just take a picture of it with your phone or something.

[qubes-users] Re: Has anybody gotten increased scrutiny at an international checkpoint because of having qubes installed?
Yeah, there are ways to fake an OS, but that really wasn't my question. I was wondering whether or not folk have noticed that having an OS like Qubes would result in greater scrutiny than Windows or MacOS. I'm not trying to sneak anything across the border; I just don't want to spend an extra two hours at the airport. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Qubes not Loading

The installation completes successfully, however when I boot Qubes, it shows the startup coding lanuguage and then Qubes will automatically shut down and restart the computer.

[qubes-users] Re: Qubes not Loading
I think that you are not supposed to use one of those make-a-bootable-drive apps. Instead, as I remember, you just dd the thing onto the usb and plug it in. See: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/installation-guide/ Look at the section "Copying the ISO onto the installation medium" When I first tried doing Qubes, I did the same thing. I installed it using one of the usb writer apps, and couldn't figure out why it didn't work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

If you are a pro at qubes you can msg me direct as well and i have no problem throwing you some money if you can expediate my head aches. Or you can comment here as well both work either way. I'm not sure if those apply to legacy mode. Try pressing f12 repeatedly during startup, about when you see "Loading initial ramdisk..." in grub. This should get rid of the graphical splash screen and switch to console output. Take note of the last few lines on the screen when it freezes. Alternatively you can remove "rhgb quiet" from the command line in grub. Is the whole system frozen, or just the screen? Does the light turn on/off when you press caps lock, for example? If you press ctrl-alt-delete does it power off after some time? I recently had the same problem, where Qubes 4.0.2 would screen freeze during boot. I went through the above steps and eventually found "nomodeset" to work around the problem, due to a bug in the amdgpu driver. Other people with my same laptop found that "iommu=soft" kernel option would allow the amdgpu driver to load without freezing, at least on regular non-qubes non-xen linux. I don't know if/how kernel iommu options work in Qubes. If you're using Qubes version earlier than 4.0, make sure to add iommu=no-igfx to the Xen command line. https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/intel-igfx-troubleshooting/ - This free account was provided by VFEmail.net - report spam to ab...@vfemail.net ONLY AT VFEmail! - Use our Metadata Mitigator to keep your email out of the NSA's hands! $24.95 ONETIME Lifetime accounts with Privacy Features! 15GB disk!
