I'm also having problems with getting HDMI to work on a Dell. In my case a Dell 
XPS 15, model 9550. 

Did you manage to solve it? xrandr does show HDMI1 and HDMI2 but no resolutions 
available to choose from.

Tnx,
Marc.

How different is a 9350 from a 9550? I had no problems using the internal Wifi, 
e.g.

lspci? Just to compare?

Greetz,

[qubes-users] qga.exe 100% CPU load (Windows Tools)

[Marc de Bruin]

Hi,

Occasionally, the Qubes GUI Agent (qga.exe) process turns into a CPU-hog for no 
apparent reason. The process just turns into a flatliner, eating up one 
complete core, which turns the Windows 7 machine into a very slow beast. 
Nothing is crashing tho. Power-off/power-on the HVM seems to fix it.

AFAIK, I’m using the latest version of the Windows Integration Tools on Qubes 
R3.2. 

Where should I start looking for problems? Any log-files that are recommended 
to look at?

Greetz,
Marc.

I will do the same, no problem. I just couldn’t believe it didn’t rescale 
proportionally. It is the first thing you learn when programming GUIs I guess? 
;-) Nevermind. Qubes rulezzz. With what will it be replaced in Qubes 4? 

Thanks,

Greetz,
Marc.

[qubes-users] Powerpoint Presenter mode in Windows 7 HVM

[Marc de Bruin]

Lo,

I’m trying to get presenter mode working in a Windows 7 HVM. According to this, 
http://www.peterfillmore.com/2015/05/enabling-additional-screen-in-qubes-os.html
 
,
 it might be possible to virtually attach a second screen to a Windows 7 HVM 
with the Qubes Windows Tools installed.

I’m trying to copy his approach but ran into problems. First of all, after 
installing the Windows Tools, my Windows 7 HVM always seems to “full screen” 
itself in a maximized window. Is there a way to resize that window after the 
tools are installed? Second, when following his approach, the second screen 
seems to be there but cannot be seen. And, to my horror, starting the Windows 7 
HVM suggests that the cannot-be-seen second screen has become the primary 
output of that Windows 7 HVM. :-(  I had to restart the HVM in safe mode and 
disable the “Standard VGA Graphics Adapter” to get things normal again.

Could this nevertheless work? 

Greetz,
Marc.

[qubes-users] Qubes and HiDPI

[Marc de Bruin]

Lo,

To start with, I’ve read https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1951 
. 

I got this new Dell XPS 15 9550 with a HiDPI screen (3840x2160). I’ve been 
trying to get it working the way I want: native resolution with readable text. 
Xfce provides a way to increase the system font to 192dpi; KDE has a scale 
factor to increase all fonts with a factor. Either way, the Qubes VM Manager 
doesn’t seem to scale it’s own “graphics” accordingly, is that correct? E.g., 
displaying the column with the IP-addresses results in it only displaying 
“10.137.”. The rest is cut of, because the width of the column doesn’t seem to 
get wide enough.

Is there a way to get around this? Doesn't the Qubes VM Manager “window” 
proportionally scale itself related to the occupied pixels of the text due to 
the font? Or am I missing something?

Greetz,
Marc.

By default, the internal disc is put in Intel RAID mode. I had no problems 
installing after changing from RAID to AHCI. 

Did you solve it already? Maybe we should compare other BIOS settings …

Please note that I’ve put the system entirely in Legacy mode, because I 
couldn’t get the Qubes installer to boot in UEFI mode or Hybrid mode.

Marc.
