I have had cases when it appears that QubesManager appears like it will not start, but the reason is because it sees another one running so holds off (but sticks around). The other instance is windowless and usually wedged somehow (typically on libvirt--I'm not a big fan of that layer). As root, do a "ps ax | grep qubes-manager" to find the running process (a python process). kill (or kill -9 if needed) that process #. All of them, if there's more than one. Then re-run qubes-manager with "qubes-manager". If libvirtd is being stupid, a "sudo systemctl restart libvirtd". That often wakes up a non-responsive system for me. (If that's the problem, kill qubes-manager, restart libvirtd, then run qubes-manager.) -JJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
