[qubes-users] HCL - Razer Blade 14" (01/2017)

2017-01-07 Thread Krasi
I have the stealth one and had similar issues, unfortunately Qubes is still 
unstable with the new kernel and crashes on me. Unsuspend/wakeup is not working 
for me, the os just freezes with black screen. External monitor is also not 
detected unless I boot qubes with it attached. You can test the camera with 
cheese, mine is not working :( I am also still unable to assign devices to 
other VMs without something crashing or not working.

Please let me know if you manage to fix any of those issues on your laptop.

Thanks

I just installed it on Core i7-7500U, I was able to install it in EFI mode but 
was unable to boot to it and had to edit the EFI partition. As far as I 
understand Qubes does not install grub when installed in EFI mode, you might 
have to boot from a live USB, mount the EFI partition and make changes to the 
xen.cfg file.

After that you should be able to boot into Qubes or select your OS from BIOS if 
you are dual-booting.

I hope this helps :)

[qubes-users] HCL - Razer Blade Stealth (Late 2016 Model)

2016-12-14 Thread Krasi
I have tested Qubes Release 3.2 on Razer Blade Stealth (no model number). Here 
are some details other then the HCL report.

Installation and BIOS/UEFI:

I had to disable secure boot in the firmware before my USB stick would boot. 

I was able to install in UEFI mode only, in legacy mode I had some problems 
with the graphics and Qubes would load the text installer which was unable to 
partition drives with encryption.

Graphics and resolution:

First book was good but the resolution was only 800x600, had to update kernel 
to 4.8 and then edit the xen.cfg file inside the EFI system partition. The 
kernel boot files had to be copied from /boot to the EFI partition under the 
qubes directory to force it to use the 4.8 kernel but after that the graphics 
work great and the sound got fixed.

LAN/WLAN:

Was unable to test LAN, no LAN port but wifi was broken initially, had to use a 
USB adapter to update the kernel, after the update wifi is working correctly.


Webcam:

Not working, the device is not found by cheese.

Sound:
Sounds appears to be working, have not testes the microphone but the speakers 
are working.

Trackpad:
Its working but you cannot mouse click without physically pressing the pad. I 
am guessing gestures are not working.

Keyboard:
Everything appears to be working, backlight is on, and the function (FN) keys 
are working, can change volume and so on...

Suspend/sleep/poweroff:
Suspending/sleeping when the lid is closed appears to be broken, when I open 
the laptop I can see the keyboard light-up but the screen in black. No problem 
rebooting and turning off.


Summary:
Most things work with the new kernel (4.8), camera is not working and the 
sleep/suspend function are broken.


Let me know if you have any questions :) I should be getting updates from this 
post.

Actually I got this resolved. I had to update to kernel 4.8.12 and then edit 
the EFI partition. I copied the kernel files from /boot to the EFI partition 
and then modified the xen.cfg file to boot into the 4.8.12 kernel and the 
graphics are working now.

[qubes-users] Intel HD 620 graphics drivers, how to install in dom0 ?

2016-12-13 Thread Krasi
Hi everyone, I am having trouble with the graphics and only have 800x600 
resolution, tried to add more resolutions using xrandr but I get an error 
"Failed to get size of gamma for output default" which I figured is due to not 
having the correct drivers.

Intel appears to have a tool for Fedora to install their drivers but I am not 
sure how to install it under dom0 considering there is no network access:
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/intel-graphics-update-tool-linux-os-v2.0.2

Is that my best chance to get my graphics card working and get some higher 
resolution ? Would you suggest something else or do you know how I can 
accomplish this ?

I am using Intel Kaby Lake i7-7500U with the integrated HD 620 graphics.


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Re: [qubes-users] Trouble booting Qubes in UEFI mode alongside Windows (dual-booting)

2016-12-13 Thread krasi
Thanks for the help Marek, I was looking around and found this
tool EasyUEFI. Decided to give it a try and found that the qubes partition
was hidden... wow

I was able to use the tool to force EFI to boot from the partition by
moving it to the top of the list. Weird, not sure why the partition was
marked as hidden but I am able to boot into Qubes now and will need to work
on installing some drivers now :)

I will report the hardware I am using so it can be added to the
compatibility list soon.

[qubes-users] Trouble booting Qubes in UEFI mode alongside Windows (dual-booting)

2016-12-13 Thread Krasi
Hi everyone, I hope you could point me in the right direction, I have been able 
to install Qubes on its own partition and the boot EFI files are on the boot 
partition along with those for Windows but when I reboot and press F12 to 
select the boot device I only see the Windows bootmanager, I do not see Qubes 
but when I run "efibootmgr -v" from a live Ubuntu USB I can see an entry for 
Qubes so I am not sure why the firmware does not see it and would not allow me 
to boot it.

I even tried to remove Windows and just leave Qubes but I dont think Qubes 
wiped the boot partition so it was unable to boot and it would just send me to 
the firmware (BIOS) settings screen.

I tried to disable UEFI and just use legacy mode to install but Qubes is unable 
to start the graphics and sends me back to text mode install and is unable to 
setup the installation partitions correctly under text mode, something about 
the encryption key missing.

I am trying to get Qubes work on a laptop, using intel core i7-7500U, 
integrated graphics(Intel HD Graphics 620), 12 GB ram and 500GB SSD.


Any help is appreciated :) Thanks
