Re: [qubes-users] fedora-29-minimal sys-net/firewall problem

2019-01-11 Thread rumsey . anthony
Thanks to Ivan, I figured it out (with a bit of luck).

After comparing packages in his working template to my own, I first tried to 
install:

dbus-glib
ipcalc
iproute
iproute-tc
iputils

That fixed it as far as I can tell. I now have a working sys-net and 
sys-firewall with the fedora-29-minimal template. I'm assuming the ip* packages 
were the key, but I don't really have any idea.

Thanks for that. I compared your rpm file to what I have in my

Thanks for the reply. I had been following that thread of yours and hoping 
someone would have an answer, but I have to assume the same thing: something is 
missing.

Hopefully someone will answer this question so that my wife will stop asking me 
what the hell I'm doing sitting in front of my laptop all night :)

[qubes-users] fedora-29-minimal sys-net/firewall problem

2019-01-11 Thread rumsey . anthony
I've been using Qubes for about 1 year now, and I wanted to try using a minimal 
template on my Dell XPS 13 laptop for the sake of conserving space.

I've installed the packages recommended at 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora-minimal/ for sys-net and 
sys-firewall and I also had to copy the /usr/lib/firmware/ath10k from my 
fedora-28 template to the fedora-29-minimal clone in order to get my wifi to 
work.

Under the fedora-29-minimal template clone I can connect to wifi. With both 
sys-net and sys-firewall using the minimal template, both templates and dom0 
are able to update, so I know there is connectivity. However, I am unable to 
get any internet connectivity in my appvms.

I have no expertise in the realm of troubleshooting these problems. I am just 
knowledgable enough to sometimes figure stuff out and sometimes screw things up.

Any help would be appreciated.

Too late not to reboot. No lost information though, so that won't be a problem. 
Just was hoping to save the time required for a reinstall.

Thanks for the info. I'll just go ahead and reinstall.

Can you tell me what I did or how to avoid this issue with the thin pool in the 
future? Was I just taxing my system resources too heavily? I'll have to look 
into it because I don't really even know what the thin pool is.

Thanks

[qubes-users] Qube manager has unexpectedly stopped working

2018-08-13 Thread rumsey . anthony
Have had Qubes 4 running smoothly until just now.

Upon startup Qube Manager no longer loads, and when I try to start it from the 
menu I get an error:

"QubesDaemonCommunicationError: Failed to connect to qubesd service: [Errno 2] 
No such file or directory at line 9 of file /usr/bin/qubes-qube-manager."

This has proven to be out of my league in terms of being able to troubleshoot, 
so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for a fix so that 
I don't have to wipe everything and start over on this machine.

It may be relevant that just prior to this happening I had a warning pop up 
that had something to do with low memory in something that was called "LVM thin 
pool" or something similar to that.

Thanks to anyone with suggestions!

Are you asking about how to get mu4e up and running in emacs? If so, that is 
outside the scope of this message group and I'm certainly not the best place to 
go for information.

I would suggest doing your googles, as there are many guides for this process 
available scattered about.

Briefly, I have found that I'm happy with the an email setup that uses mu4e 
(https://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/mu4e.html) for interacting with email in 
emacs. I use isync/mbsync (http://isync.sourceforge.net/) for getting my mail 
from the server.

Guides like this one: 
http://www.macs.hw.ac.uk/~rs46/posts/2014-01-13-mu4e-email-client.html

...are helpful for giving you a template on how to set everything up, and it's 
just a matter of wading through the details to get it tuned to your own liking.

[qubes-users] Re: Split GPG and Emacs/mu4e: able to retrieve email but not send

2018-01-27 Thread rumsey . anthony
Apparently creating a post for help is like replacing something you've lost, 
only to find it immediately after replacing it.

Here's the solution to this problem:

Apparently Emacs will trick you into thinking you've changed the 
epa-gpg-program variable, but it won't actually honor that change when it runs 
a gpg call.

This: 
https://blogs.fsfe.org/jens.lechtenboerger/2017/04/12/gnu-emacs-under-qubes-os/

Supposedly I should be able to use the following to make Emacs recognize 
qubes-gpg-client-wrapper:

(customize-set-variable 'epg-gpg-program "/usr/bin/qubes-gpg-client-wrapper")

But even though I'm running 25.3.1, it didn't work. I had to fall back to a 
second option:

(require 'epg-config)
(customize-set-variable 'epg-gpg-program "/usr/bin/qubes-gpg-client-wrapper")
(push (cons 'OpenPGP (epg-config--make-gpg-configuration epg-gpg-program))
  epg--configurations)

This did the trick and actually got Emacs to recognize the changed variable.

I can now send email using emacs/mu4e and Qubes split gpg.
