This is documented all over Qubes' docs. AMD does a pretty good job offering drivers.

Creating launchers from the desktop worked too. Desktop files for the applications I wanted imported fine, but the xfce settings manager is empty when I open it. That's fine, though.

[qubes-users] Dom0 entries have vanished from the applications menu.
In the application menu, dom0 entries have disappeared, including the logout options. All entries for AppVM, ServiceVM, and Templates remain. This has happened to me before, but I don't know how to proceed. XFCE builds these menus from .desktop files in locations like ~/.local/share/applications/ (mine has has only .desktop files for VMs) and /usr/share/applications/ (which has none.) /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml mentions /var/lib/qubes/servicevms/dom0/, but that folder doesn't exist on my system. It looks like this happened right after I removed some templates with the "$ sudo dnf remove " command. Terminal outputted some errors, but I overlooked them and don't know if they would be in any logs. Can anyone help me with this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
