Indeed you can do this - use reprepro to create the relevant files in

Re: [qubes-users] Corrupted GUI after XFCE logon
Hi Frédéric,
Surprisingly, the lightdm service doesn’t appear to be running, but moving the
xfce4 config directory out of the way and then logging in, successfully gave me
a functioning resolution.
Many thanks for the help!

Got two more questions:
- the ubuntu templates have a file
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/qubes-contrib-r4.0.list which contains URI's
to the qubes-os server (e.g. https://contrib.qubes-os.org/deb/r4.0/vm
bionic main)
Those don't work for me, which makes sense as Qubes can't provide
Ubuntu binaries. Correct?
- the above though got me thinking... if I build using my own signing
key, run a webserver on the qubes-builder VM and configure the
firewall to allow the Ubuntu templates on my machine to connect to the
qubes-builder VM ... then I could replace the above URI with my local
qubes-builder VM IP and 'apt update' should pick it up - right?
There is probably another file that I need to create for this to work
("Release file")?
Thanks!
PS: I know Unman is doing all this work and that's awsome ... I could just
use his binaries ... but where is the fun it that ;-)

Hi Dave, I had the same issue. Always had a graphic boot screen but when I did a fresh install with 4.03 it was gone ... thing is after all the latest updates it is back. So it might be as easy as 'sudo qubes-dom0-update' and reboot.

Re: [qubes-users] Corrupted GUI after XFCE logon
Hi,
I would do something like:
- systemctl stop lighdtm
- mv ~/.config/xfce4{,.bak}
- systemctl restart lightdm
Your XFCE settings are backuped for further investigation.
Best,
Frédéric

[qubes-users] Corrupted GUI after XFCE logon
Today I booted my Qubes laptop (Dell Precision M4800) which has been working fine for a while and noticed that after entering my password in the GUI session manager to enter XFCE I’m being logged on, but there is something wrong with the resolution of the display and the result is a corrupted and unusable GUI. (See attachment) I can hit CTRL-ALT-F2 to get a console session, but not sure how I should proceed to troubleshoot the XFCE settings from there. Is there a way to “reset” the X server settings or force it to attempt to auto-detect the screen size? This is odd as it used to work fine for the built-in laptop display, but has now become unusable. I installed all dom0 updates and rebooted to ensure I have the latest patches, but it didn’t help.
