You see, Operating systems don't really work "magically" on hardware These operating systems need to have drivers designed and coded in order to establish stable communication between your Hardware and Operating system. Taking this in mind, yes, for the most part, the general approach is to have a driver for each and every popular hardware that are put into machines and are being utilized by users. There may be generic drivers but these drivers don't really work universally So in order to code these drivers, you need a vast amount of manpower Since Ubuntu is arguably the most popular linux distribution to the general populace and I believe popularity really has alot of influence to the amount of people contributing to the Ubuntu project - contributors who could definitely help in coding these drivers While I'm not exactly sure if there is a way to make installation seamlessly work on 'any' hardware and only have issues float by Login interface and have access to shell, I sincerely believe that the very reason why installation tends to fail alot is the lack of drivers. There are a bunch of things you can try to make installation happen like setting nomodeset, acpi=off, and etc. Alas, if your notebook has an intel CPU then I seriously believe it has Intel HD graphics not unless it's those old ones that don't really have it It would be great if you have Intel HD graphics cause you can definitely push through installation with nomodeset to avoid utilizing your nvidia GPU It's not ideal to use that GPU for Qubes anyway, specially when you're looking to make some gaming VM where you would passthrough your Nvidia GPU -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Structure of qubes
acharya.sagar.sag...@gmail.com: I updated the kernel of dom0 to 4.20 and qubes booted with Integrated Graphics from Ryzen APU as in one of the earlier posts. Good, was going to suggest that. When I change the NVIDIA pci device (VGA compatible controller) from dom0 to fedoraDev template, my system crashes which means it's using GTX 1060 as graphics after initial booting up. How to change this? After this, I intend to do just the 1st part of https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/install-nvidia-driver/ that is building kernels in fedoraDev template so that NVIDIA Graphics Card is installed for template based VMs. Please help guys. I don't know anything here in the hardware software interaction area. Your other question on using the Nvidia card in a VM is also known as graphics card passthrough. It's a good idea, but several have tried and I am not aware of anyone who has succeeded under Qubes 4.0. You can try to hide it so Qubes doesn't try to initialize it with xen-pciback.hide=(08:00.0), replacing the 08:00.0 with the BDF for the card. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Yes, exactly. The VM side of this is here: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-agent-linux/tree/master/qubes-rpc > This resolution is simplistic.

I think the logical thing to do, would be to use template's preferred theme. If desirable, there could could be a mechanism to synchronize it with dom0 theme. - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

It's not very different than fascism, in particular the Gestapo, who would use those in the community to censor people through fear of being marginalized. I'll stop discussing this if you will. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
