I'm attempting the BIOS update route today, if I can get the computer to boot from the upgrade drive... Lenovo claims there are security fixes in the latest BIOS version as well, so I figure it can't exactly hurt to try it. Also Frank (not quoted above, sorry): thanks, I'll look into hibernate-to-disk settings. If that's turned on somewhere I definitely think that could be the culprit. Once upon a time I actually had a Gentoo laptop that could do it, but that took a lot of work and a custom initramfs.

[qubes-users] S3 sleep on Thinkpad T460 issues
Hi list! So, I have an issue with my Thinkpad T460. What seems like randomly, it will not wake up from S3 sleep. Opening and closing the lid, hitting the power button and doing a little jig on the keyboard does nothing. The indicator light is however pulsating, and I can get the FnLock light to light up by pressing Fn+Esc. I'm fairly certain it happens when it's slept for a long time, e.g. overnight, and it may be related to putting it to sleep with an Ethernet cable and/or power connected. I've set the TPM to the discrete chip and done some other BIOS fixes that have gotten sleep and shutdown to work properly most of the time, but this issue still eludes me, and it doesn't seem like I can find anything about it in the logs either. Can't find anything on the issue in the list archives, so I figured I should bring it to the list to see if anyone has an idea of what could be going wrong. I have logs from my attempt to suspend yesterday, which ended with the computer not waking up this morning: http://pastebin.com/yny6QL4j As you can see, first there's some sort of i915 warning, then xfdesktop dumps core, and then systemd merrily goes on its way suspending the system. I suspect the issue is in there somewhere-could be i915, right? I'm also running the stock BIOS revision but I've prepared an update USB that hopefully will allow me to update to the latest version. Could maybe resolve the issue, no? Any input or ideas appreciated... Cheers, MARTIN L.

Fällman > Subject: Re: Win7, qvm-copy-to-vm, QubesIncoming location? > > it'll be in a subfolder of the documents root. This is the problem: the files are nowhere to be found. Somewhere they do get written because the file copy mechanism identifies that there's already an object there by the same name and it shouldn't be overwritten, but there's no way for me to find it. I did a proper clean re-install of the Windows tools, and set the default user for my W7 HVM to the correct name (the one I log in as) in qvm-prefs, but the problem persists. Wherever the files I send to the VM gets written, I can't find them from inside the VM, and they persist between restarts. Could it be that they're written to private.img but somewhere Windows doesn't consider "real" for whatever reason? Tried reading the source too but I'm not a C programmer and can't make heads or tails of what's going on.

[qubes-users] Win7, qvm-copy-to-vm, QubesIncoming location?
New Qubes user here. Running a Win7 VM for many work tasks. Once I set it up I could copy-to-vm just fine, with a QubesIncoming folder showing up and everything. Then I domain-joined the W7 install and got a new user account, the user account I set up during install was renamed admin and I dont use it unless I have to now. All of a sudden, copy-to-vm doesnt work as expected. The file is clearly sent just as normal. But I cant find it anywhere on the W7 hard drive. Whats weirder is, if I try to send it a 2nd time I get the error message qfile-agent: Fatal error: File copy: not overwriting existing file. Clean QubesIncoming dir, and retry copy; Last file: test.txt (error type: File exists) So, my guess is that its written somewhere to the W7 disk, but qfile-agent is confused as to where exactly it should end up, and its probably written to a dir that Windows for some reason doesnt even see. Is there anywhere in the settings for the VM where I can change the incoming directory to match my current user profile? (Ive tried to re-install the Windows tools as well; didnt make any difference.) Thanks! MARTIN L.
