See Joanna Rutkowska and her talks. You are looking for a 100% solution. Big surprise is a 100% solution is not existing and will never be. You can of course use a libre X200 without IME and without real virtualization too, having again to deal with issues of a monolythic system. Tradeoff can be the X230 with more-less disabled IME with proper virtualization.

This is reality and Qubes cannot change it. > Qubes doesn't even claim to change it. You need to address Intel same way as Qubes ppl do and ask them to close the backdoor. Are you aware that spreading of the false claims *can be* an intelligence operation to undermine user's support and appreciation of the codes like Debian and Qubes? From leaked materials is known that the US IAs named for example Tails based on Debian as a total apocalypse for intelligence collection for them, if spread. Keep in mind, nothing is perfect. But if you have an option for a better set and setting, put it up. > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "qubes-users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to > qubes-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > <mailto:qubes-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com>> . > To post to this group, send email to > qubes-users@googlegroups.com > <mailto:qubes-users@googlegroups.com>> . > To view this discussion on the web visit > > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/qubes-users/65d4efc1f6cc5203a5fc0802e2cdff2e9fc992f7.ca...@mailbox.org > > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/qubes-users/65d4efc1f6cc5203a5fc0802e2cdff2e9fc992f7.camel%40mailbox.org>> > . > For more options, visit > https://groups.google.com/d/optout > <https://groups.google.com/d/optout>> . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
