[qubes-users] feature request

Hello, I have several virtual screens; I guess many user have. Is it possible to reserve one of them exclusively for dom0 and templateVM terminals -sort of a separated "admin screen"- to avoid other appVM-windows popping up and being able to capture input from keyboard? Bernhard -- You

Re: [qubes-users] Has anybody gotten increased scrutiny at an international checkpoint because of having qubes installed?

Is there actually anyone working on the hidden OS option for the linux? Would be very much appreciated. What's about this: take a harddrive, make a dd copy of your first 128 GB data on it. Encrypt it additionally (symmetric cipher), if you wish to avoid any luks or other headers. Hide it, if

Re: [qubes-users] Has anybody gotten increased scrutiny at an international checkpoint because of having qubes installed?

Carry another then, that's the safest. The easy solution (if you accept some "risks") that works as well is a micro-usb & some std linux on it, that is already booted. Give it a family picture background with sweet kids & some green :) And two or three non-sense documents that you can open. I

This successfully sends the first file, but not the second, can anyone help with this or should I be using qvm-copy? I don't say what you should, or should not, but what I think is more easy: recall that qvm-copy or qvm-move take certainly multiple files. The question is more intriguing if the

after recent updates my buster based sys-usb is in trouble. I can still attach a device (say, a camera, usb stick), but first it will be attached as /dev/sda and no longer /dev/xvd[i-z] and worse, it will be removed immediately. Someone had / solved this problem already? Cheers, -- You received

Dear Andrew, thanks for the reminder. After my last dom0 update ("current testing") my laptop does no longer wake up after lip-close: the screen keeps black, nothing can be done but reboot. That is not very critical, of course. I find no hints in journalctl what could be the reason. Happy to
