[qubes-users] Switching desktops causes stuck ctrl key

2020-04-02 Thread Andrew Todd
For the last month or so, I've been having a problem -- intermittently, 
when I switch desktops using Ctrl+Alt+arrow key, I find that on the new 
desktop all applications behave as if the Ctrl key is stuck, constantly 
pressed down. For instance, if I start scrolling the mouse in Firefox, I 
will start zooming in and out on the page.

Experimentally, I can usually clear the stuck key by switching back and 
forth to another desktop a few more times.

Has anyone else encountered this?

Re: [qubes-users] Troubleshooting an AppVM that suddenly can't connect to the network

2019-08-19 Thread Andrew Todd
Thanks, you are right that I don't have any experience with packet 
sniffing, however, after making sure that nothing else was using the 
network and running iptables -L -nvZ on both sys-net and sys-firewall... 
there's no packets at all getting there from this AppVM. Which doesn't make 
any sense to me, the default route is definitely there:

$ ip r
default via 10.137.0.6 dev eth0 
10.137.0.6 dev eth0 scope link

and in qvm-firewall both DNS and ICMP are allowed, yet neither is working. 
Is there more debugging I can do on the AppVM itself?

Both sys-net and sys-firewall are based on the fedora-30 template. There is 
only one AppVM affected, all others based on the same template are working 
fine. In fact, I copied the complete contents of the bad AppVM's home 
directory to a new AppVM, and it's also having no problems connecting to 
the network. I would like to find the root cause, but that's my workaround 
for now. Thanks for any more advice you can offer.

[qubes-users] Troubleshooting an AppVM that suddenly can't connect to the network

2019-08-19 Thread Andrew Todd
I'm having a problem that I'm very confused about.

I have several AppVMs based on the same fedora-30 TemplateVM. Some of them 
are completely cut off from the Internet, some have firewall restrictions, 
some connect through sys-firewall but are not restricted.

Today, one specific AppVM has started refusing to connect to anything. Even 
if I try to connect by IP address, it claims it can't route. Example:

$ ssh user@192.168.34.22
ssh: connect to host 192.168.34.22 port 22: No route to host
$ ip r
default via 10.137.0.6 dev eth0 
10.137.0.6 dev eth0 scope link

I've gone through the few settings and error logs that I can think of, but 
nothing seems to be unusual about this particular AppVM. I've checked 
qvm-firewall and the rules should be allowing appropriate traffic to pass. 
I have not changed any settings. I have tried rebooting the system once or 
twice as well, with no effect.

It seems like I can get to sys-firewall across the link-local connection, 
but that's all. After that, nothing seems to work. Every other AppVM I've 
tried is working fine. Where should I be looking next? Thank you.

[qubes-users] Re: Instability with video and graphics in fedora-30

2019-08-03 Thread Andrew Todd
I thought that I would follow up and note that performance has gotten 
significantly better during the last month after applying package updates. 
I don't know which package upgrade specifically fixed things; there have 
been multiple kernel, Xorg, and graphics-related package updates in that 
time.

[qubes-users] Instability with video and graphics in fedora-30

2019-06-28 Thread Andrew Todd
Hi,

I've recently updated to a fedora-30 + rpmfusion template for many of my 
AppVMs. I've begun to experience a lot of instability in the following 
situations:

* mpv playing video (often segfaults even before playback starts)
* vlc playing video (often segfaults before playback starts)
* Firefox rendering Google Maps -- I suspect this uses WebGL? (performance 
significantly degraded, occasionally the browser locks up)
* Firefox rendering video (occasionally the browser stops responding)

I double-checked my dom0 configuration against this page:
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/intel-igfx-troubleshooting/

and in fact I even switched from the Xorg Intel driver to the modesetting 
driver (see https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/4782) after I 
noticed from the Xorg log that there seemed to be some issues with my graphics 
card and the Intel driver. That didn't make much of a difference.

I've confirmed that it's something in the template: if I switch those AppVMs 
back to fedora-29 + rpmfusion, the problems go away. However I'm not really 
sure where to look from here to continue debugging. I'd appreciate any advice. 
Thank you.
