new observation, it seems to be related to the template, debian 10 in 
this case.
I switched the template for the aapvm i wasnt able to start up and 
viola! it opened up, then i tried to make a new appvm based on the deb10 
template and, no go, nothing would start?

what about a template would cause an appvm not to start?

[qubes-users] laptop Intel HD Graphics heatsink fan: SOLVED

2020-09-27 Thread Jake

hello list,

i was trying to get qubes to work on a new laptop with an intel hd 
graphics gpu and observed the following behavior i had never encountered 
previously:


- install succeeded, but once i started running several appvms and 
restoring from a backup the heatsink fan was blowing a lot of hot air. 
neither dom0 nor the appvms were using any cpu (all at 0% or close), so 
i inferred that the heat was coming from the gpu.


after attempting several fixes, e.g. updating dom0 to use the 5.6 kernel 
and setting several kernel options, i did the following:


- in dom0 do 'journalctl | grep drm | less' and see a log '[drm] 
Reducing the compressed framebuffer size. This may lead to less power 
saving than a non-reduced size. Try to increase stolen memory size if 
available in BIOS.'


i rebooted the machine, went into the bios, and adjusted the memory for 
the integrated gpu upwards from its default setting. now the machine is 
working as expected - no unusual heatsink activity.


just in case adjusting the memory used by the gpu in the laptop bios 
doesn't work by itself (i haven't tested this), the following may be useful:


- in dom0 'sudo qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest' to install the latest 
stable 5.x kernel. you can also use --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable


- [assumes uefi boot] in dom0 edit /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/xen.cfg kernel 
options to add i915.enable_fbc=0 and i915.enable_psr=0 to disable 
framebuffer compression and panel self refresh


i hope this can help someone else and save them some time that i lost.

regards

jake

I had similar problems with a recent System76 Darter Pro installation 
(search this mailing list for "Guide to installing Qubes on System76 
Darter Pro").


The wifi card that comes installed in a Darter Pro (Intel Wireless-AC 
9560) has compatibility problems with Xen+Qubes. I replaced it with a 
similar model (Intel Wireless-AC 9260) which worked fine.


You may have the same model wireless card in your Lemur Pro. Searching 
dmesg for entries related to iwlwifi should give you the model number of 
your card if you have no other way of finding it:


$ sudo dmesg | grep iwlwifi

...

Installation completed fine, and I used a usb ethernet adapter

[qubes-users] Fedora vendor supported on future Lenovo laptops

2020-09-27 Thread qtpie
Probably more people saw this. I guess this means that future Lenovo 
laptops will be better compatible with Qubes if dom0 remains to be Fedora?


From fedoramagazine.org:

Now available: Fedora on Lenovo laptops! - Fedora Magazine
3-4 minutes

Fedora and Lenovo!  

We’ve been teasing this for a while, but today it’s finally trueFedora 
Workstation is now available preinstalled on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 
Carbon Gen 8, ThinkPad P53, and ThinkPad P1 Gen 2 laptops. The ThinkPad 
X1 Carbon is available today for direct consumer purchase from Lenovo’s 
online store. The Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 2 and ThinkPad P53 will be 
available next week via the “Contact Us” icon on Lenovo.com. What’s 
more, the successor models are in the works for pre-load and online 
ordering as well!


Lenovo has been a great partner in bringing this to market. Like the 
Fedora community, they are operating on an “upstream first” model. 
That’s part of why the only thing you’ll see on the laptop that doesn’t 
come from an official Fedora repository is a set of PDFs providing 
documentation and legal notices. Lenovo engineers have been contributing 
to the Linux kernel, including a patch to enable the “lap mode” sensor, 
which is already accepted. They have also worked with their vendors to 
improve Linux support in devices like the fingerprint scanner.


Of course, you already know that open source is about more than just the 
technology; the community is what makes it great. Lenovo is a member of 
Fedora and other communities. In addition to participating in the usual 
Fedora places (like the devel mailing list), they also were a gold-level 
sponsor of our Nest With Fedora conference. And they have a dedicated 
Fedora section on their community forum. Mark Pearson, Senior Linux 
Developer said “doing open source the right way is important to us” at 
his Nest With Fedora Q session.


This will be a global program, but it will take some time to roll out 
country-by-country. If it doesn’t appear on the website in your country, 
call the local sales number for your country to place a phone order. I’m 
excited to have Lenovo offer Fedora Workstation as a supported choice on 
their laptops. This is a great opportunity to grow our community.

[qubes-users] networkmanager / keyring

2020-09-27 Thread haaber

Hello,
a long time ago I did set a pwd for the keyring in sys-net. By too
little use, I forgot it. So now I can no longer register new networks,
which means at every laptop-lid open.close I have to enter it again, and
again. Editing /etc/Networkmanager/system-connections/wireless-name
files by hand is ignored, even if I put there pwd=whatever
Is there a way to solve this (either by destroy keyring, or make
NetworkManager read its own config files??)  Thanks !
