[qubes-users] Re: XScreensaver randomly popping up
Also, since I started a thread, I also want to ask whether SHA1 or other deprecated algorithms are used in the PGP verification of dom0 and domu updates. This is somewhat related to my original question. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2020/01/pgp-keys-software-security-and-much-more-threatened-by-new-sha1-exploit/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] XScreensaver randomly popping up
Has anyone else experienced the screensaver/lock-screen popping up in the middle of typing? I had this happen to me twice while typing in dom0 (the second time, I was in the middle of typing 'qvm-shutdown debian-10'), so I went and checked all of the XFCE and Qubes shortcuts to ensure that I didn't hit some shortcut by accident. The default keys were ctrl-alt-del and ctrl-alt-L, along with some xf86 shortcuts, so my fingers were nowhere near the keys. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

zhaojx88,
you got a *network error*, so may be, you should follow my steps
with a USB Network Interface Controller (aka USB ethernet), because the
internal ethernet card isn't recognized by the default 4.9 linux kernel.
My BIOS setting:
Boot (section)
Secure Boot Disabled
UEFI Boot Enabled
Legacy Boot Enabled
> Secure Boot (sub-section)
System Mode User
Secure Boot Disabled
Not Active (title)
Secure Boot Mode Standard
> Boot Priority
UEFI Boot x (i.e. checked)
Legacy Boot x (i.e. checked)
USB x (i.e. checked)
I used the 4.0.3 ISO from https://www.qubes-os.org/downloads/ on a
USB storage stick. On boot I used the F10 key for choosing the *UEFI*
USB device stick. And I installed Qubes-OS on my SSD with the help of
the Qubes-OS documentation.
Note also than my first 4GB USB stick was too small for the iso,
finally I used a 32GB stick (but 8GB will be fine).
If this doesn't resolve your problem, give more information (BIOS
screenshots, when you got the above error message, ...)

It's 5.7.X version. You say that you have black screen since kernel 4.19.125? Best, Frédéric -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

The newest kernel (128) won't boot neither :-( So I am still using 4.19.107. But on next update I will be out.
