[qubes-users] M.2 to PCIe Adapter play nice with qubes?

2019-08-10 Thread Stumpy
My current box does not have m.2 slots but I plan on upgrading my box in 
the next year or so. Thing is, I need more space and some additional 
speed would be nice.


I did not want to by a 2.5 sata3 drive when I will be upgrading.

With that said, I was looking at PCIe/m.2 adapter cards like these:
https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?N=100160874%204114%204115=m%2E2%20pcie=REVIEWS

Has anyone tried adapter cards like these with qubes 4+? Is there any 
reason they should not play nice with Qubes 4+?

Re: [qubes-users] Re: Changing the clipboard shortcut in 4.0 doesn't work

2019-08-10 Thread arthur . summers
Sorry - I don't use Google Groups enough, so I just hit "Post Reply" 
assuming that it would be smart enough to put the reply in the right place.

I looked at the XFCE keyboard shortcuts and window manager keyboard 
shortcuts, and Ctrl-Alt-c/v aren't in use. There might be another place to 
look, but those are the main ones off the top of my head. However, I'm not 
sure if this is a window manager issue since the keyboard shortcut is 
controlled by the Qubes Clipboard program (qui-clipboard).

I don't know enough about the Qubes internals to trace how it picks up the 
setting from /etc/qubes/guid.conf (and why it isn't accepting my values 
after I changed them). I tried doing a recursive grep to find any other 
places where the default shortcut may be set, but it got a little 
mind-bending.

I'm happy to provide more details from my system, though - my fingers just 
really want to use my custom shortcut because they've been confused ever 
since I upgraded. ;-)

Re: [qubes-users] using static dispVM for sys-net

You still need a netvm with Mirage, but smallest attack surface alone is
disposable netvm + Mirage. "Disposable" doesn't increase or decrease
attack surface, though. It helps against persistence- if something
managed to compromise sys-net's rw area, it would be gone next reboot.

If you're using Mirage for a firewall, you don't need that fedora-30
sys-firewall inline any more. That might be what you have already done.
You could create a sys-update and place it anywhere behind Mirage firewall.

Put them in the custom DVM template you base the disposable sys-net
from:

What would be the better choice regarding attack surface:
 disposable netvm+firewallvm vs. mirage-firewall?
If I understand it right the mirage firewall has no/less option to be
compromised.
I am using the mirage fw and are only using a fedora-30-minimal based
sys-firewall to get dom0-updates, which can't be done via the mirage
firewall.

But I'll also change this firewall to a static disposable FW.

Question:
Afaik the problem when using a static disposable sys-net VM is, that I need
to enter my Wifi Credentials each time, as the VM will be unable to
remember them.
Is there any way tweaking this behaviour?

I never had to specifically enable cups Qubes service, but printing works
with Debian 9.

I made a backup of a debian based stand-alone qube. When I restore it, the
name of the qube shows up in the Desktop Manager's menu but with only two
visible shortcuts: Start and Qubes settings. What have I missed?


Try Qubes Settings/Applications/Refresh.
