[qubes-users] AMD Ryzen 7 PRO compatibility
Because of the security issues with Intel Processors, AMD processors seem to be a very interesting alternative for a new system running Qubes. The AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 4750G with integrated graphics would be ideal price/performance wise and it ticks all the boxes: no Intel, no Nvidia, 8 cores, and integrated graphics which are just fine for most Qubes users, certainly for me. But right now apparently Qubes has problems with the AMD PRO features SME and SEV. (I read in an older thread) Would it be too much of a gamble to still get the AMD Pro for a new system and hope it will be possible to run Qubes in some (4 -8) months? Or maybe it is (will be) possible to get these PRO processors running Qubes with all the Qubes security features intact but with SME and SEV switched off? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

It may be that either the new metadata hasn't come down (happens a lot on Debian, not so much fedora) or the repo isn't enabled by default in the package. Thanks for the suggestion, I get pretty much the same kind of error (in the template and in dom0 when trying to install rofi) bash-5.0# sudo dnf install --refresh --enablerepo=qubes-repo-contrib qubes-tunnel Error: Unknown repo: 'qubes-repo-contrib' yet when I installed something (Sakura in this case) it clearly showed it was checking the contrib repo in addition to the other repos? 1. The reason you're getting "Error: Unknown repo" is that the repository name is not "qubes-repo-contrib". Rather, the name depends on your Qubes release and whether it is in dom0 or a TemplateVM. For example, in a Fedora VM on Qubes 4.0, the new repository is: /etc/yum.repos.d/qubes-contrib-vm-r4.0.repo 2. After I installed the repository in a Fedora VM, I checked and found that it was already enabled, so --enablerepo is unnecessary. 3. I then tried to install the "qubes-tunnel" package in the same VM. Even though dnf reported that the contrib repo was checked, the "qubes-tunnel" package was not found. So, I can at least partially reproduce this. However, I don't know whether this problem is specific to the "qubes-tunnel" package. I suggest filing a bug report. -- Andrew David Wong (Axon) Community Manager, Qubes OS https://www.qubes-os.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
