Thank you! I think that will help a lot of people.

Re: [qubes-users] Netowork Manager not running (minimal VM)

2018-01-05 Thread Fabrizio Romano Genovese
I obviously checked that page (it is the first thing I did, actually). But 
qubes-core-agent is not mentioned at all there. After hours of research, I 
stumbled into this thread 
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2771

>From here, dnf search qubes-core-agent gave me what I needed. I'd suggest to 
>mention (at least) the existence of the qubes-core-agent-... packages in 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-vm/

I'd also suggest to mention qubes-core-agent-passwordless-root in 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vm-sudo/

I am aware that building an entire operating system is a lot of work and there 
are literally thousands of packages, always changing, to consider. But pages 
like these should be kept up to date. I wouldn't suggest to edit them (some 
information that is still useful for previous qubes versions may be lost), but 
just to index them according to qubes new versions: I'd propose to have a qubes 
3.1, a qubes 3.2 and a qubes 4.0 section, for each page.

Cheers,
Fab

Re: [qubes-users] Netowork Manager not running (minimal VM)

2018-01-05 Thread Fabrizio Romano Genovese
Yo everyone,

For future reference, problem solved. The packages 
qubes-core-agent-nautilus
qubes-core-agent-networking
qubes-core-agent-network-manager
qubes-core-agent-passwordless-root
qubes-core-agent-dom0-updates
qubes-input-proxy-sender
qubes-usb-proxy
Are not included by default in the minimal template vm. The first one gives you 
the cute (send here/move there/open in dispVM) stuff in Nautilus. 
The next two are (I suppose) to make networking not a pain in the bum.
The fourth one should do what is done in https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vm-sudo/ 
for you. 
The fifth one is needed if you are setting up a template you'll use as the 
underlying one for the vm that takes care of updating dom0. 
The last two are to set up a template for sys-usb.

All this information was somewhere between here and the github issues page, but 
it should really (REALLY) be listed in 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora-minimal/ since nearly always one 
will end up needing at least one of the packages listed above.
At the moment setting up a template based on a minimal fedora distribution 
looks like a treasure hunt, and I am pretty sure it would save people a lot of 
energy and time to have this stuff added to the fedora-minimal reference page.

Cheers,
Fab

Re: [qubes-users] Netowork Manager not running (minimal VM)

2018-01-05 Thread Fabrizio Romano Genovese
Exciting news: I didn't know that polkit was a package, so even if I followed ( 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vm-sudo/ ) in detail, nothing worked.

Giving sudo dnf install polkit in the minimal template vm solves the 
authorization problems, both for sys-usb and sys-net.

Now I am able to use the minimal template as the underlying one for sys-usb, 
but I still have problems with sys-net.

sys-net keeps telling me that NetworkManager is not running. If I open up a 
terminal and give sudo NetworkManager then i can see the networks clicking on 
the wifi tray icon, but I can't connect. If I click on a network nothing 
happens (no error displayed, of any kind. Just nothing). 

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Fab

Re: [qubes-users] Netowork Manager not running (minimal VM)

2018-01-05 Thread Fabrizio Romano Genovese
yes, I have network-manager listed in the services tabs for sys-net (I suppose 
that this what the service you were referring to. adding NetworkManager causes 
the VM startup to fail).

Moreover, if I try to use the same template for sys-usb and then try to open 
some usb stick, I get the message:

Not authorized to perform operation (polkit authority not available and caller 
is not uid0), so again an authorization issue. I suspect this may have 
something to do with the procedure to make the minimal template passwordless ( 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/vm-sudo/ )

If someone has some insight about this I'd really appreciate it :)

Cheers,
Fab

Try adding NetworkManager to the Services tab on your sys-net VM?

[qubes-users] Netowork Manager not running (minimal VM)

2018-01-04 Thread Fabrizio Romano Genovese
I am trying to set up a sys-net based on fedora-26-minimal. I installed all the 
suggested packages in https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora-minimal/

When I start sys-net I can see the network-manager applet, but if I click on it 
it says "NetworkManager is not running..."

If I manually give 
sudo NetworkManager then I can see all the wireless networks I usually see in 
my place (hence the network card is recognized) but when I try to connect to 
one of them I receive the message
(1) Not authorized to control networking.

I suspect there is some service that needs to be started when the VM boots that 
I haven't specified, but I don't know how to proceed.

Cheers,
Fab
