qubes-gui-agent starts its own X server, on :0. So, it conflicts with
the one started manually with startx.

Is that browser chrome/chromium by a chance? 
I think it's this issue:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/31786/chrome-asks-for-password-to-unlock-keyring-on-startup#191490

Either try setting empty password, or try solution with
- --password-store=basic.

Re: [qubes-users] Fujitsu Lifebook U757

http://www.fujitsu.com/global/products/computing/pc/notebooks/lifebook-u757/



Did you try?

Keep in mind that selecting a computer for Qubes comes with some general 
constraints, so here is my 'compatibility lecture':


1. Computer must be compatible with open source OS/drivers. If open 
source developers had to guess in order to make compatible drivers, then 
the level of compatibility and stability may be poor.


2. Computer must have advanced virtualization and memory management 
features which must be correctly configured and programmed by the 
hardware vendor. But some of these features end up in models that aren't 
marketed to advanced users, so the features are left unsupported or 
mis-configured by the BIOS/motherboard to save on engineering costs.


Usually when Qubes doesn't work on a particular model its because of 
some combination of 1 and 2. This is not surprising with models like the 
U757 because the Fujitsu data sheet only lists MS Windows as a 
compatible operating system.


-

My advice is to start looking for a Qubes laptop on the HCL page below 
and/or look at business models from the 'big 3' manufacturers Dell, 
Lenovo and HP in addition to Linux-focused System 76 and Purism which 
the manufacturer describes as "Linux compatible" and does _not_ rely on 
Nvidia graphics. Although that doesn't specifically address the Xen 
aspect of Qubes, this is a pretty good starting point in general for 
finding compatible hardware.


https://www.qubes-os.org/hcl/

Users should note that "Compatible with MS Windows" is not the Good 
Housekeeping Seal Of Approval For Linux Users... It means a partnership 
exists between the hardware vendor and Microsoft without regard as to 
whether or not design specs required to write good drivers have been 
made available to open source/Linux developers or anyone else. It can 
also mean that Microsoft intended that partnership (and hardware info) 
to be exclusive meaning the info _won't_ be distributed to anyone else.

[qubes-users] Default keyring

2018-10-12 Thread Patrick
When creating a new template, then launching a browser in it (in order to 
install software), a dialog box asks:

An application wants access to the keyring "Default keyring".

Never seen this, my passwords don't work.

[qubes-users] whonix upgrade, qubes4

2018-10-12 Thread beto
I went thru the steps to remove any existing whonix.  No errors were reported.
Then I issued the command to re-install whonix-14.

Whonix does not work.  Whenever I boot up one of the VMs based on the new 
whonix, I find that qrexec-agent is crashing.

[   15.903799] qrexec-agent[789]: segfault at 70d5257f6ff8 ip 70d5255f3355 
sp 70d5257f7000 error 6 in ld-2.24.so[70d5255dd000+23000]

This is similar to whonix-9 template issues some have seen.


qubesdb-daemon also segfaults in the same manner earlier in the boot.
