(please see attachment) i dont fully understand that gparted screenshot, but it looks like you resized the partition already. so whats missing is on one of the LVM layers of the stack. check with "pvs", it should list a /dev/mapper/luks-something. does that PV have the right PSize of 900+ GB? if not, google: pvresize next check with "vgs", it should list a qubes_dom0. does that vg have the right VSize of 900+ GB? if not, google: vgextend next check with "lvs qubes_dom0/pool00". does that pool lv have the right LSize of 900+GB? if not, google: resize lvm thin pool -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Install qt5ct and style plugins ... Fedora: sudo dnf install qt5ct qt5-qtstyleplugins Debian: sudo apt install qt5ct qt5-style-plugins Then set QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct in etc/environment and reboot the qube. Now launch qt5ct and select the 'gtk2' theme. If you are simply using Adwaita-Dark then qt5ct has a dedicated theme for that. Or you may install and select the themes you mentioned.

[qubes-users] Global Dark Theme For Qt (KDE) Based Applications
Hi There is a very nice article in the Qubes docs, https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/dark-theme/, explaining how to (manually) enable a dark theme globally for your AppVMs. A fairly straight forward settings might I add. But the setting only applies to GTK (GNOME) based applications. Would anybody here know how you apply a global dark theme to your AppVM(s) for Qt (KDE) based applications like Amarok, Krusader, etc?

[qubes-users] Re: Happy Father’s Day
No problem, I understand. It's also worth looking at the OU. They accept ppl onto their foundation courses without prerequisites. Most of their foundation courses are 60pts, some are 30pt. Once you get 120pts that is equivalent to having completed the first year at Uni. Back when I was working for them, many unis would accept 60pt in lieu of A levels, and with 120pt you could transfer in directly to their second year (this is sometimes called credit transfer). The other advantage of the OU is that they are set up for distance learning, so they are inevitably better at offering support that way than anyone else in the UK (tho admittedly I am biased). And any college you go to, whether for a degree or for A levels is going to be doing much of the next term by distance. Turning to Cambridge: yes they are world leaders for some engineering topics, and some physics topics (eg radio astronomy where they are second only to Manchester). I think you will do well academically with their collegiate and tutorial systems: you get a lot more face to face time in small groups than at other British Unis (apart from Oxford which is similar). You enjoy arguing, and the chance to discuss your studies with a small number of fellow students under the guidance of a tutor will work well for you. We had that at Manchester to some extent, but tutor groups were larger and met less often than at Oxbridge. On the social side you might find the upper class twit Culture nauseating. Ditto Oxford. Or you might find a pull towards challenging that politically especially if you find yourself alongside the Camerons, Johnsons, and Rees-Moggs -- and that could distract from your studies. That was why back in the seventies I chose not to even apply for Oxford or Cambridge, much to the dismay of my teachers who set much store by the numbers of pupils they could get into Oxbridge. It was the sort of school that had boards up showing all the pupils who had brought honour to the school by getting into those two unis, lists going back to well before WW2. The same applied to the interview process. Even with the perfect A levels, more than any other uni, Oxford and Cambridge reject a lot of applicants at interview (or at least they had that reputation back in the day). My suggestion is to do two more bits of research. Firstly ring up the Edinburgh OU office and ask to make an appointment for an informal chat with one of their advisors. When you speak to the advisor explain that you are looking at the OU as a step towards entry to engineering at Cambridge. You can also in normal times visit the library at their office and look at course units, prospectuses, and so on -- with Covid it would be worth phoning ahead to check. If i was that advisor i would encourage you to start with the Technology foundation course (which includes engineering as well as other applied sciences). It used to be a 60pt course, which supposedly took 14hrs study per week for nine months. If you feel keen, and can do the equivalent of a full time student for nine months, also do Science or Maths. Ask for the prospectuses for STEM foundation courses to be posted to you (unless you prefer to look online). Be clear that you want something at the level of a first year of an honours degree. You feel you are ready for that, and explain that access courses and similar would be wasting your time. Also, ring the Cambridge advisor people (do they have specific advisors for mature students?) and ask what their attitude is to taking OU students: would they interview you for starting their engineering degree at the first year with 60 or 90 pts credit in relevant subjects? With 120pts would they consider going directly into the start of the second year or would it still be the case that you'd go into the start of the first year? They are not going to promise anything: they may change their rules in the meantime, and if they do it could work for you or against you. So if they seem to be avoiding the question, make it clear that you are asking about current practice and you realise that it could change. And you still might fall at the interview stage: whatever qualifications you get, they will still want an interview This are my thoughts: ring tonight or tomorrow if you want to discuss this further, not this afternoon as I'm busy Love you R~~ On 11:56, Tue, 23 Jun 2020 Robyn Woof I got both emails one after another just now and I am a bit all over the > place all options seem worrying > > On Tue, 23 Jun 2020 at 11:55, Robyn Woof wrote: > >> I am at a bit of a crossroads and would appreciate your advice.

[qubes-users] New Windows Launching Wrong Monitor
Hi I have two monitors connected to my Qubes laptop and it works really well with one exception. When ever I launch certain programs, or a settings window of that program, the window always opens on my laptop screen, even though I have one of the external monitors configured in System Tools > Display as the Primary display. I assumed that everything will, if anywhere, always open on the Primary display. Is there somewhere else where I can tune this?

[qubes-users] Kernel Panic using kernel-latest from current-testing and RX5700XT
Good Morning, Is anyone else getting a kernel panic at "amdgpu_debugfs_init" booting the new 5.7.4-1 kernel from current-testing with an AMD GPU? I'm not particularly worried about it because the GPU didn't work with 4.0 anyway and the bug doesn't affect 4.1. I'd like to know whether anyone else has the same problem. Workaround (assuming you have another GPU) is to add `modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu` to your kernel parameters. Though if you only have AMD GPUs, this will block them. Thanks, Jarrah. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
