If you change 'repo init -u git://git.osdn.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest -b android-x86-7.1-r2' to 'repo init -u git://git.osdn.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest -b oreo-x86', you'll have no mouse issues. Just rememeber not to do Alex's steps on fixing the mouse if you do, as you'll just recreate the mouse problem. When you rebooted the appvm, and shut down the builder VM, the iso should have detached from the android appvm. Reboot Qubes if it hasn't. I've been changing resolution by affixing 'vga=(desired resolution code)' to the end of the kernel. You can type vga=ask to get a list of resolution codes. You do this by pressing 'e' when you get the boot options, and then 'e' again. It will look something like 'kernel /android-2019-02-18/kernelvga=ask quiet etc, etc'. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Anyone who is serious about computing. Developers, gamers, businesses, those interested in VR, those interested in security, those interested in a build that can be upgraded to their hearts content. Laptops have their purpose. They can provide a mobile computing experience. I use one for work purposes. But, lets be real. That is the only advantage over a desktop (even power usage can be just as low on a desktop if you want it to be). You don't even have to build one yourself for Qubes. You can easily buy a SSF Dell Optiplex off ebay for $200 with a Intel 4770/4790 and 16/32gb of ram. I have an i7 laptop from 2011 that can't even run Qubes 4.0 because laptop cpus get shafted in the specs (thankfully they at least get vt'd these days). I have others that have heating problems because there is only so much cooling you can give a laptop, while some of my desktops have 5 14cm fans keeping them cool at 5ghz overclocks. You say laptops are flexible? But are they? you can't just rip out parts (apart from ram/hdd) like a desktop. And their actual upgrade paths are limited. With my desktop I have parts from multiple build/years. It is just that flexible. Also, space requirements? you living in a tent? I speak out about this.. because I have 5 laptops sitting around collecting dust. They have limited use because they are laptops. Desktops can always be adapted to another use. One of my older builds became a pfsense router, for example. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Re: Android-x86 7.1-r2 with GAPPS installation guide
Hi Alex, Let me just start by saying a massive thank you. This guide has been great. I have used it for the 8.1 - Oreo - which was just changing: 'repo init -u git://git.osdn.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest -b android-x86-7.1-r2' to 'repo init -u git://git.osdn.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest -b oreo-x86.' With 8.1, mouse support comes out the box and completing the last part of the guide actually makes the mouse worse in Oreo. So, disregard that part anyone following this guide for 8.1. You can change resolution by affixing 'vga=ask' and choosing your desired resolution (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/KZm8aGJuiO0). I have come across one issue, and I am wondering if you could help me. Android has installed great, and loads up fine. However, I simply cannot open the Settings app, as it crashes every single time. Others who have encountered this issue modified it using adb (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3480201/how-do-you-install-an-apk-file-in-the-android-emulator?rq=1), but I don't know how to do this with a Qubes HVM.

[qubes-users] Effectiveness of the VM compartimentation
Hi all, Right now I use Qubes for a bit of fun - setting up VPN's - chaining them, trying to get HVM's up and running, just messing about. I do plan to totally phase out my other OS's for it, but theres one thing that keeps going through my mind.. how isolated are the VM's from each other actually? I know Qubes is 'reasonably' secure, but how secure? Could a whistle blower have a whonix VM open handling sensitive materials while at the same time have a personal VM with ISP connection and google/facebook/work sites open, with no issue at all? If the whistleblower would only be able to use the machine for sensitive purposes due to leak potentials, etc, wouldn't this make using Qubes pointless? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Re: Is it safe to install Qubes4 on laptop used windows10 before?
When you format a HDD, whatever OS was on there previously is gone. Be it Windows, Qubes, or whatever. None of the windows phone home features will survive the format and you can happily install Qubes on the formated HDD. I really don't believe Microsoft is able to track your hardware, UUID, if you've installed Qubes. Nor would this effect your activities on Qubes anyway? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Re: Valid Concerns Regarding Integrity of Whonix Project
'This law was only recently introduced and is already being used to great effect according to recent reports.' Great effect? Where are your sources? I can't take you seriously without proper sources. Gut feelings, suspicions, it all means nothing without evidence. Should we all bust out the tin foil while we're here, too? In what ways could Whonix be modified to pose a threat to us? They can't modify Tor, and any change they do to the OS is in clear visibility. How will they back door it? Any existing case examples? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
