Good default wallpaper makes a big difference in first impression of an

Linux will have a hard time figuring out how to set a custom dom0
wallpaper themselves, and will probably expose dom0 to an untrusted

Wallpapers (and first impressions...) are really important, even more so 
with less GUI snacks.
There are many great, suitable and royalty-free wallpaper images at 
www.Pixabay.com .
Just need to select some that have some practical areas where the Qubes 
logo can be added.


I think that Qubes should come with a decent collection with various 
categories to choose from (5-15 options in each category? nature, 
animals, urban, countryside, skyline, linux, tech, future, ... etc.)


Here are 10 potential wallpapers from Pixabay (royalty-free):

Marek, no ill intentions meant here, but the concerns of the release isn't just 
technical ones. There are questions regarding which target group whom Qubes 
want to spend time and resources on.
Will these issues not be addressed? Are there no one in the Qubes team whom 
work with with public relation role, to address these issues,, especially 
during a major release? 

Again, no ill intentions here, but it would be nice to know if your focus is 
now entirely business users, or if you also intend to make a system for the 
everyday users as originally planned. 
Do regular users take a backseat now? or are both being kept in focus? 

This is not a a complaint, but rather, it would just be nice to know rather 
than keeping it a secret. I do not believe you intend to make it a secret, but 
it can come across as such, that's why I request a statement on the matter.

When I boot with VT-d disabled the Qubes 4 installer works and is booting

So it seems that there is a problem launching the installer with VT-d

But without VT-d I get error messages after the installation has finished,
which means that I am currently out of luck installation Qubes 4 on my X200.

Make sure you have VT-x and VT-d enabled in BIOS.


Indeed, I have checked BIOS setting and vt-d was disabled for some strange
reason (it was enabled under Qubes 3.2 before).

If I try to start the AppVMs and also the Fedora-25 Template VM I get the
same error.
As I also got the message at the end of the Qubes installation process, do
you suggest to reinstall, now that vt-d is enabled?

Another strange issue is that I can only see 'Start' in the list of
available applications in all Fedora VMs.

As I haven't read this before, it seems that something is broken.
Guess reinstalling  is the best option??

No.
I'm using separate WiFi, and Ethernet VM's, I have several VPN proxy
VM's as well, my dispVM start without net access. And need to use/test
lot of things with different network exits.

I do not really agree with the reasoning tho.
But if it would be customizable? - just like the old Qubes manager ;)

Let's talk about these in a separate thread or ticket
Will collect my ideas and share it soon.

Currently even the basic networking looks unreliable, so I can't even
test my custom firewall rules...

A would say it's needs a bigger change.
But of course this is really subjective, and currently do not have
time to design a qubes related skin for the login manager :(

So this is just my (and my surroundings) opinion.

So, you switch netvm for VMs frequently? Doesn't it mean you should have
separate VMs, instead of switching one between two (or more) networks?

Anyway, adding such information to domains widget shouldn't be a big
problem. Just don't show it by default (see reasoning why dropping old
manager, in announcement post).

The main reason for nftables is to simplify custom scripts. If you
have nftables, qubes-firewall no longer flush standard tables - it
register its own. This means you don't need to re-apply own rules every
time qubes-firewall change something. And you can register own tables
before or after qubes-firewall.
And in theory you can still use iptables for your custom rules.

It's here:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-agent-linux/blob/master/qubesagent/firewall.py

I think you can extend one or both of those classes and use them instead
of default ones. Or submit a patch.
This code unfortunately do not have (yet?) nice interface to extend it
for other rule types.

If you choose to have default action "allow", there will be appropriate
rule just before it.

Which also have similar aesthetic.
Do you think about just some better background there, or some bigger
change?

Can't see the networking stuff.
The most important is (at least for me) the actual NetVM used by a Qube.

the default "self defending rules" are Iptables based, the VM traffic
forwarding rules are nftables based.

Custom firewall scripts now have to handle both.
My opinion that there is no real need for nftables until it can really
replace iptables. We are using just a really few rules here and the VM
based chains achievable by iptables too.

I plan to continue the L7 filtering thing I started to play with. Can

It should be decided by the user, by selecting default policy.
IMHO Qubes should not try to override the user decisions.

Nope, I see the qubes backround. :)

But still feels like a bare naked login screen.
IMHO this should be just as important as the Qubes boot (splash) screen.

Re: [qubes-users] Qubes OS 4.0 first release candidate (rc1) has been released!

2017-08-03 Thread Micah Lee
I've finally got Qubes 4.0-rc1 booted! I've got a couple questions.

Without the VM Manager, is there a GUI way to delete VMs? I know you can
run "qvm-remove" from a dom0 terminal.

Is there a GUI way to start VMs without actually opening an application
in them? (I often configure stuff to autostart when the VM is started.)

I'm also noticing some strange USB VM stuff. On this computer I've opted
to make sys-net both my netvm and usbvm, and I've confirmed that sys-net
has my USB controller PCI devices attached.

By default, my sys-net uses memory balancing, even though it has the
warning message, "Dynamic memory balancing can result in some devices
not working!" Should I turn off memory balancing?

The devices systray applet thing for me lists these devices:

sys-firewall:1-1 QEMU_QEMU_USB_Tablet_42
sys-net:2-7 8087_07dc
sys-net:2-8 SunplusIT_INC._Integrated_Camera
dom0:mic Microphone

What is this qemu thing in sys-firewall? When I run lsusb in
sys-firewall I see two devices, "Adomax Technology Co., Ltd" and "Linux
Foundation 1.1 root hub". I confirm that sys-firewall doesn't have any
USB controller PCI devices. But even weirder, when I boot a different
AppVM, like personal, lsusb shows me the same USB devices, but it
doesn't appear in the Qubes devices systray applet.

And finally, when I plug in a USB device, the systray applet doesn't
seem to see it. I plugged in a Yubikey, and when I run qvm-usb in dom0
it displays:

sys-net:2-1 Yubico_Yubikey_4_OTP+U2F+CCID

And running lsusb in sys-net displays it as well. But the devices
dropdown doesn't list this.

Also, I noticed that qrexec clients now require an extra step. If I run
"qvm-copy-to-vm work example.txt" in my personal AppVM, the dom0 window
that pops up asks me to select the target ("work", in this case) before
clicking OK to allow it. This seems fine to me, and in fact I like how
clear it's being, but "work" isn't pre-filled in, so I have to manually
select it, or type it, each time, instead of just pressing enter.


Finally, pro tip: In xfce, and especially in Qubes, I find pressing
Alt-F3 and typing the name of a program much quicker than using the
start menu. If I want to open Firefox in the personal AppVM, I type
"personal:" and it shows me all the menu entries for personal, and
"personal: f" is enough to select Firefox by pressing enter.

I had this issue on my Thinkpad X230 with a fresh install of 4.0-rc1 and the 
fix let me boot, but, when I shutdown, the system hangs and when I hit escape 
on the shutdown screen, I see errors in device-mapper failing to remove ioctl 
on the VMs and then a bunch of the error "failed to write error node for 
backend/" for xen-pciback and vbd.

Have you tried the suggestions from "Rusty Bird":

I ran into the same behavior on a T420. Removing iommu=no-igfx from

If that doesn't help, _adding_ console=vga should let you see what's

The easiest thing to do is to switch restored VMs to use templates
installed with Qubes 4.0. Templates from 3.x should work too, even as
HVM. But some features may be missing.
We'll prepare instruction how to upgrade such templates, but it isn't
done yet.

will be addressed in one of the upcoming blog posts, I can of course wait. :) )

Ah, I hadn't thought about that. I've been using physlock since
forever, if only to avoid seeing XScreenSaver's fonts...

Consider a briefly-unattended laptop protected by only a lock screen.

Normally the attacker would need a way to kill the X screensaver
without killing the X session. Would the above make crashing the X
session (and thus being dropped back to the display manager which
auto-logs-in) sufficient to gain access?

If so, this sounds like a bad idea (or at least an argument for

I've seen some problems with USB 3.0 on T460p. Basically it throws a lot
of I/O errors - sometimes during boot, sometimes in the middle of
installation. Using USB 2.0 stick, or USB 2.0 hub (or just cable)
helped.

Is it just about initramfs and "post installation tasks" - compared to
the whole installation time? There may be some bug causing initramfs
being generated twice (or more...) - I think I've fixed something like
this before, but maybe not all the places. If you think it's important,
please open issue on github.

What do you mean by "randomly shirk to unusable"? Can you provide a
screenshot?

Sadly that's true. Working on major features (like Admin API) took much
more time than anticipated, and we didn't want to delay 4.0 any further.
In practice there are not so much missing things, that are useful for
normal usage. I'd say this list:
 - booting from external disk (useful to install windows)
 - firewall rules
 - network settings (custom IP, etc)
 - allow starting DispVM out of this AppVM

I've created this ticket to track it:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2949

If you think some more will be useful, please comment there.

> - memory balancing are enabled on PCI asigned VM's.

In practice it is not, because VM itself have it disabled if have some
PCI device. So the issue is reporting it in GUI.

Most backend code to support more labels is done. The (important!)
missing part is window manager support. AFAIR currently only awesome and
xfce4 generate colorful borders dynamically, other window managers
(especially KDE) have it hardcoded.

If you want to try, take a look here:
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/admin-api/
Then use qubesd-query tool to issue those API calls. For example:
echo -n 0x00 | qubesd-query dom0 admin.label.Create dom0 cyan

(testing this, I've found you need to kill `qvm-start-gui --all --watch`
process and start it again after creating label)

What do you mean? Domains widget is specifically there to show you
VM status.

What do you mean by mixed? Setting for VMs are applied using nftables if
supported (Fedora), or iptables when not (Debian). Not both.

I think we can say that KDE migrated from "ITL supported" to "community
supported". OTOH Fedora 25 in dom0 brings also updated KDE, so maybe
some issues are fixed.

I'm having hangs on resume with kernel 4.9 on a Latitude E7470. That suggests

whoohooo - that fresh installation on an x260 for the first time showed
reliable suspend+resumes, I've done 42 suspends of the machine (which, granted,
was not doing anything) and it successfully resumed 42 times \o/

which to me is quite very amazing, running qubes 3.2 I'd estimate the success
rate rather to be 60% or so, maybe 70%… (while the same machine running 
Debian 8 also had 99.x% successful resumes…)

so far so very good. i'm curious whether this will also be the case with qubes
3.2.1 and a 4.9 kernel (so far only tried with the older 4.8 one from the
qubes repos…)

(but then, see the other mail on this list about my problems installing the
4.9 kernel on qubes 3.2…)

OTOH, wireless didnt work after a few resumes (qubes 4.0rc1), i assume this 
can be fixed by unloading+reloading the module, but…

I'm happy as long as resume works.

I ran into the same behavior on a T420. Removing iommu=no-igfx from
the Xen command line fixed it. [1]

If that doesn't help, _adding_ console=vga should let you see what's
going on.

start by pressing esc to switch to text boot. Maybe get a camera so you can 
capture the error msg before reboot. If that doesn't provide enough info, you 
can try enabling debugging in the boot options by adding the relevant parameter.

doh, indeed it was disabled. (Which slightly puzzles me as I had running Qubes 
3.2 running
on this machine before…)

Now I get another error OTOH, but I'll try a fresh reinstallation of 4.0rc1 
first, before
reporting that exact error…

Thanks!

Do you have VT-x enabled in BIOS?

awesome!

I've installed it on a lenovo x260 and upon the end of the installation I had 
some 
error concerning sys-firewall stating "could not find capabilities for 
arch=x86_64",
despite that the installation seemed successful. But then when I logged into the
installed system and ran "qvm-run personal xterm" I got the same:

$ qvm-run personal xterm
Running 'xterm' on personal
personal: Start failed: invalid argument: could not find capabilities for 
arch=x86_64

IOW: this doesnt work for me at all. Happy to test+debug further though if 
someone
has an idea what to do…
