Re: [qubes-users] can't download qubes 4.0 how to raise 4.3gb download limit.

2018-03-25 Thread cooloutac
alot of people use whonix as their updatevm now.  But those that are right now 
are having weird problems as i'm sure you've noticed.  I never trusted Tor,  
Joanna used to not use it much either...  Privacy and security are two diff 
things.

But if thats the only way they could get to us,  then that says alot for how 
secure Qubes is.

2018-03-25 Thread cooloutac
The reason I think it happened is because first there was a failed update.  
Then had to update it a second time.

Then all of us regular posters at the time were posting and we all had the same 
anomalies and bugs going on.  Alot of weird things going wrong with the system. 
 Even on Andrew Wongs machine.

But hey man.  Qubes protected me for 2 years before that and thats a record in 
my book.  My windows machine gets compromised in a month.  And my linux 
machines usually in one day lol.

Just hunches  :),  always loved how Joanna is one of the few to admit thats all 
we ever got.

Oh,  she also came out with idea of paranoid recovery mode after the whole 
fiasco.

Re: [qubes-users] can't download qubes 4.0 how to raise 4.3gb download limit.

2018-03-25 Thread cooloutac

If they are focusing on gpu passthrough, for wider adoption,   their focus 
isn't on security.   Its also silly and ironic that 4.0 is way less user 
friendly then 3.2.

There are many statements from Joanna about secure boot and ME in general, and 
closed source code in general.  Which means they will never use secure boot.  
disappointing, because IMO its pretty necessary even for a reasonable secure 
machine.

Hey man, like I said.  Alot of us were already compromised by a bad dom0 
update.  I don't remember you posting during that time so maybe your machine is 
ok.  And it came from them unintentionally, or fedora repos,  who knows.  I 
could be wrong though,  of course I have no proof.  Just a paranoid hunch.

Intel patched ME for backdoors that have been in their machines for 8 years a 
week after that.  It was during a time when there was friction between Subgraph 
and Qubes,  and when spender was having nervous breakdowns and who already 
basically threatened Joanna in the past with such an attack.  If you want to 
talk about rude vindictive losers,  look no further then spender and the 
subgraph dev Xsmurf aka Bruce Leidl.   That guy is nuts and gives me the 
creeps. Super vindictive.  And whats so crazy about them is David Mirza Amahd 
is such a nice friendly guy I don't think he even has any idea what goes on 
underneath his nose.   Which also makes them kind of fake and all marketing 
hype.   Laughed when him and the rapist Applebaum, who i could never stand,  
cringed at Joannas comments at the LoganCIJ6 panel.  Because her comments were 
so brutally honest and I guess they just wanted her to be the typical 
salesperson.  She actually looked depressed.  She used to work for the nsa so 
maybe they have approached her and that upset her,  maybe they also target us.
 
But hey i'm just crazy so don't mind me lmao...

I haven't seen a statement from QubesOS project on either of these, other
than they might consider a different graphics pipeline in the next major
version. I might have missed it, though. It would be nice to have
acceleration as long as it's not at the expense of security. Secure boot
by itself is fine, but the problem is it brings a larger attack surface
along for the ride so it's one of those things where you have to pick the
lesser of evils which is going to vary from person to person/threat model.

> Focusing on enterprise users and not home users.

It's not an either/or situation. Have you read through
https://www.qubes-os.org/news/2017/06/27/qubes-admin-api/? If anyone can
figure out how to handle management securely, I'd look to the Qubes team.

Please give them a chance before passing judgement! If you see them
actually threatening to push something insecure to testing/current, by all
means call it out but so far everything I've seen is the opposite.

Well I felt like 3.2 was though.  Qubes kept getting more user friendly, but I 
guess that peaked with 3.2.  My mother uses Qubes no problem and the only time 
she ever has to use a terminal command is if she accidentally shuts down the 
sys-usb instead of restarting it lol.

debian-9 was never in the 3.2 repos.  Its stated as such in the docs.   They 
also state they will support 3.2 for a year after 4.0 has its final release.  
But I guess the avg user will have to know how to update their debian-9.  Or 
just abandon debian.   You can't use it as a sys-firewall afterwards and I've 
noticed some other anomalies.
"
   And yes as I said you didn't download 4.0 from your 3.2 machine.  If Steve 
Coleman didn't suggest to use a usb stick I would have never thought of it.   
Oh thats the other problem I had with debian 9.  my cloned one wouldn't load 
gparted as non root when installed.  I have no idea why.  Also had to change my 
sys-usb back to a fedora template.  Im wondering why i'm even using debian for 
anything now...

But don't you think it would be wise to have instructions so people know how to 
upgrade to latest Qubes,  if they use Qubes?   I feel like qubes has been 
sabotaged for over a year and a half now.   Sorry for being paranoid lol.  BUt 
that fact the 4.0 ISO is 100mb too much to download on a default Qubes appvm  
is just too crazy...

The thing is you were suggesting me to do something you've never done yourself. 
  That was my point.  I try never to do that unless stating so.   I doubt Qubes 
is your sole operating machine, and I doubt you downloaded Qubes 4.0 on it.  
Same goes for Yuratheia.  And thats fine,  nothing wrong with that.

As for Unman,  hes a typical rude linux guy.  Hes less rude from when he first 
started posting here,  he used to be even worse believe it or not. But I still 
can't stand him.  Qubes and the itl team themselves started to change when he 
started posting on here. 

 Qubes os itself is becoming less and less "user friendly"   Maybe just a 
coincidence? lol  But pretty soon my family will no longer be able to use it.   
So their original goal of being a house hold name is already gone with the wind!

I love Marek he never shows emotion.and Joanna might be considered rude 
lmao,  but she tells it like it is, and shes not afraid to say what everyone 
else is afraid to say.  The things I wish so called security researchers would 
have the balls to say.   And they don't play games!!   and they don't care 
about industry politics!!  They use to post alot here but it seems they have to 
concentrate on their day jobs now and if its guys like Unman influencing 
everything now.  Qubes future is in trouble. 

Even the guys name gives me the creeps.   Is he undoing man?  Is he not really 
human?  lol.   Did his handler mistakenly implant an anarchist to sabotage?  
who knows.

he just told me to make the temp file 4096M after I told him 4.3gb was already 
too small...  Hes asks me if I'm using root, then denies he did.   He asks to 
specify a template and browser when I told him the issue was with all of them 
were.  Doesn't seem like he tried to reproduce the issue himself,  like he said 
he did in another thread upgrading debian-8 to 9.   I felt like he was fkn with 
me,  which is something Marek would never do.

I've liked your posts awokd, and enjoy you posting on here.   But if Unman is 
your idol I'll have to change my opinion of you.

You sound upset and bitter, and I am sorry about that. I did not see any
questionable answer from Unman (but I don't read all mails either): he
is often very brief, but this seems to me a question of efficiency: he
answers many questions, I understand well that he won't write long texts
unless necessary. What exactly do you refer to when saying " Don't go
down Umans path.", please ?Bernhard

Your conclusions are not supported by the facts in evidence. An
alternative explanation for my not knowing debian-9 was not in the 3.2
repo could be I'd installed it so long ago on my daily driver, I forgot
where I got it from (although I still swear it was in the repo at some
point).

Similarly, I'm not sure how you came to your conclusion about Unman. In
this thread at least, he seems to be trying to help although many of your
emails have not been lacking in attitude. I get you were frustrated by the
problem you were having, but don't forget the saying about flies and

Just to clarify in case not obvious,  i meant from the appvm browser,  not from 
within the template.

I would like to upgrade to 4.0 just to see if I still get the same disposable 
vm problems,  but I have a feeling I would find more bugs and worry it will be 
way less user friendly for my family.  Some of which need the use of the pc for 
important matters at the moment.   But at least now I have it downloaded and 
know how to download it in the future.

You were the one telling me the debian-9 template was in the repos.  When even 
the Qubes docs themselves stated it clearly wasn't.   So no offense.  But just 
like most of those 5000 people,  you are obviously not a sole Qubes user 
either.  Just another cool tech experiment tester.

Dual booting also means this is just a "cool tech experiment" to you.  

 I'm talking for people right now who use qubes 3.2 as their sole operating 
machine for everything in their life.  Which probably almost noone in this 
thread does.  Yuraitha included.  

Maybe Uman does, not sure,  but he probably drives away as much people as he 
helps.  I don't even trust him.  I really like most of your posts awokd and you 
are very helpful to users.  Don't go down Umans path.

If Qubes goal is still really to become a household operating system and not 
just enterprise software.  Then they need to start realizing simple things like 
being able to download the latest version of their own os from within their own 
os should be trivial.

well it turns out when I formatted the usb to ext4 with gparted it made it 
owned by root.  Wish I would of known that...

So I did sudo chown user:user on it.

I also might of forgot to set the downloads directory to the usb again when 
loading another dispvm.

But now it turns out I can't even attach the usb anymore to a dispvm without it 
freezing,  wonder if thats cause its ext4 now.  even after rebooting the 
machine... wow..  

Steve are you in cahoots with Uman? haha just kidding i hope.

Now I'm using a non disposable appvm to try and download it onto the usb 
stick...crossing my fingers.

Towards the beginning of this thread, I linked a document about how to
grow your root/template space. It sounds like you might have missed a step
so you may want to review it again. Let me know if anything is unclear so
I can suggest more edits if needed.

Might be worth trying to download the ISO from a non-Qubes machine just in
case there's a problem with your network.

Roughly 5000 people have managed to download and install Qubes 4.0.
Hopefully you'll be able to join them soon.

Uman even with a fresh template,  and a fresh non disposable vm.  This is the 
issue.   Someone is playing jokes on users.

I was seriously at the point of just going back to buying a cheap machine for 
dedicated banking booting up a hardened linux cd like the US Airfirce Tens, 
formerly known as lps.

I already suspect my qubes is compromised.   But I'm even more paranoid about 
using my windows or bare bones linux machines to download the iso lol.  no 
matter how I verify it.   I'm so paranoid I'm going to delete and recreate the 
sys-usb qube just to use to attach this fresh usb stick I have to dd the iso.

I'm open to any suggestions for an even safer way...

But thanks again Steve.

Steve I can already tell this is doing the trick,  tyvm!  I appreciate the tip.

I still think its like some sick joke being played on qubes 3.2 users.  That 
the 4.0 iso is 100mb larger then the temporary space available  what is up 
with that? seriously...  I'm talking even with a fresh default template.   its 
4.2 / 10.5gb available...

Ajoke Sort of like Uman telling me to make the /tmp 4096M.   Which still would

Increasing /tmp, or /dev/shm doesn't do anything.  It seems to be all about the

You can see I indeed increased the /tmp file size in the disposable vm.  but as 
I'm downloading its going to /dev/mapper/dmroot...   Every vm is like this by 
default in 3.2 it seems?   I will try your method of setting firefox to save 
the file to the attached usb drive and see if it changes anything.

What I do is to use an external USB drive reformatted as an ext4 volume, 
use qvm-block to attach it to the download vm, Nautilus in that vm to 
mount it, and then have firefox in that VM save it directly to that 
external volume. This makes it easy to transfer that entire volume to 
where the DVD writer can burn that image and thus it has no long lasting 
effects with growing or changing any VM's file systems. You can even use 
a DVM to do the download. The trick is to make sure the filesystem type 
on that device does not have the screwy 4GB file size limitation.

3 years ago, not two.  hmm  Maybe it took you a year...  Whoever your handler

As I've said I already did this.  and restarted the template.  and saw no 
change.

And why would I use root user? You did ask me this and what does that even mean 
there is no root in qubes appvm??

If you look back you'll see I infiltrated the project 3 years ago.

Started using Qubes 7 years ago - sleeper for 4 years and activated by

If you're using a Template based appVM then you need to resize the
root.img of the Template - that's what the error message tells you if
you use qvm-grow-root on such a qube.
You'll need to resize the template and shut it down and then restart the
qube to see the new size.

That command you've cited will work for resizing /tmp and /dev/shm.

I didn't ask if you were using root to run the download. Obviously I should have

Using a Debian-9 template, firefox downloads to ~/Downloads. It doesnt
touch temporary storage. But you can change this under Preferences.

To increase the size of /tmp or /dev/shm:
sudo mount -o remount,size=4096M /dev/shm

Alternatively, create a directory under /:
sudo mkdir /down
sudo chown user:user /down

And set that as target for Downloads in user preferences.

maybe simply sudo mount -o remount,size=5000M /tmp  will work.  I'll try it 
when I get a chance to use the qubes machine.  But I think the problem is I 
need to increase the whole system storage.  And Uman is refusing to tell me 
how.  The qubes instructions dont' give detailed instructions.  they just give 
the qvm-grow-root command.

I find it strange uman asks me what I mean by system storage and  Asks me if

Re: [qubes-users] can't download qubes 4.0 how to raise 4.3gb download limit.

2018-03-21 Thread cooloutac
Or don't even respond to me anymore.   It already seems like most of ITL team 
abandoned Qubes.  I still think most of us got our hardware compromised over a 
year ago due to that bad dom0 update, which got my bank account hacked,  right 
before intel patched their hardware and right before Joanna came out with the 
suggestion of paranoid mode.  Call me paranoid if you want but I think its 
maybe time I stopped bothering with Qubes.

Only reason I'm still using it is for convenience.  But it seems to be getting 
less and less convenient.

Seems like Qubes is aimed at enterprises now instead of regular home users.  
And ITL's philosophy keeps changing.  Richard Stall man even supports secure 
boot saying its good for security usage since its failed its intended 
purpose..lol.   But Joanna is sounding more and more like this nut Tai that 
keeps posting on here.   

And Now not being able to download the 4.0 iso from Qubes itself is like a fkn 
joke on its users. 

I guess its like that guy who left qubes-whonix said.   It just became a "cool 
tech experiment"  and that seems to be the only people left using it.   Its no 
longer anything serious or practical for a home family.

Re: [qubes-users] can't download qubes 4.0 how to raise 4.3gb download limit.

2018-03-21 Thread cooloutac
Also,  it happens with any template with any browser. Why do I have to say that 
again.  Just pick any one and use that for your "troubleshooting".  Everytime I 
see your name now I want to break my fucking computer screen.

Pick a default template.   Pick any fkn browser and tell me how to download 
qubes 4.0 without it failing due to not enough temporary space.

only testing repo I use is the security one.

It has nothing to do with private storage. What os did you use to download your 
qubes 4.0 image?

when you download a file from the internet using a browser it uses temp 
storage.  Can you tell me how to increase it please!?!?!   I can't fine Mareks 
old post telling me how to do it from the commandline in the past.   The bug I 
used to have when playing long streams was fixed.   But Now apparently a 
similar problem is back when Trying to download this 4.0 iso.

I could never stand your posts on this "forum",  and if you are the main dev on 
this project now it might be time to abandon Qubes-os.

You must be concise in describing what you're trying to do. Are you refuting 
the normal method to increase the AppVM's size, in favor for some old method 
from several Qubes versions back? 

I apologize for the rude question, but at this point it needs to be asked. Is 
this an attempt to try preserve old habits instead of trying to build new 
habits? Are you getting stuck in old ways of doing things, which may no longer 
be supported/working?

I'm a little confused by what you are saying - what does "its the system
storage" mean?
Can you post the output from 'df -h ', and also what value you have set the
private storage to .

I recommend that you use a single qube for this, rather thsan trying
many templates and many qubes. It will really help with troubleshooting
your problem.
So please say also what template you are using and whether you are using
testing repos.

Yes i'm definitely using 3.2.  

  it starts off as 4.3 or 4.7 available I believe available out of 10.5gb.  no 
matter what I set private storage to. its the system storage.I remember 
marek showing how to increase the temp file storage size when having a diff 
issue a few qubes versions ago,  when I use to have the issue of playing long 
video streams cutting off using fedora.  I forget how maybe similar issue here? 
But it doesn't matter which appvm or template I use. 

and yes i can see the available space slowly doing down as downloading. using 
df-h or just watching in file manager.

I'm trying to download the iso from any vm,  using any template.  loading 
firefox or google chrome and clicking on the iso.  they all have the same 
problem.   I'd really have ot hate to use some other operating system just to 
download 4.0,  almost seems like a joke on qubes users, that the extra  100mb's 
puts me over the top and it fails to download lol.

I mean I do have media qubes with 100s of gbs of data in there.  But they were 
copied to vms from usb devices and I did have to increase private storage size. 
 this seems to be a diff issue.

doesn't work.  maybe a temp folder size is too small in root.

Rich,  can you confirm you're using 3.2?

How are you downloading the iso?
Are you doing this as root or user?
Where are you trying to download it to?

As you have enough space in /home my guess is that you are using /tmp
or /dev/shm 
If you run df in the qube you're using WHILE the download is running,
you should see the free space moving down as the download progresses.
Can you check this and report back?

All you should have to do is increase private storage in the AppVM you're
using for the download, not the templates.

[qubes-users] can't download qubes 4.0 how to raise 4.3gb download limit.

2018-03-19 Thread cooloutac
Can't download qubes 4.0 not enough space.  tried to raise system storage size 
on template through qubes manager.  messag said I might have use resize2f.   
tried that didn't do antyhing.   Tried to use qvm-grow-root  it staid to start 
template to complete process but it also didn't change.

   in vm settings it shows the size I specified,  but when running nautlius and 
looking at the space or doing df -h it is still only 4.3gb out of 10.5 
available.
  I've never downloaded a file this large in qubes so never ran into this 
problem. Only thing I ever had to increase was private storage.  I have this 
issue with all templates.
 
Qubes 3.2 iso must be under the limit so I was able to download that iso but 
can't donload 4.0 it is too large and fails to download.


Is there any detailed step by step instructions because I'm obviously doing 
something wrong?

Ty for the help.

Rich.
