2018-01-24 Thread Loren Rogers
I'm sure this has already been discussed, but is there a way to save the state of a virtual machine, instead of shutting it down? I can't find any info in the docs on what exactly pausing a VM does, but could this be similar? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

[qubes-users] Two disposable VM options?

2017-02-22 Thread Loren Rogers
I've been thinking that it would be handy to have two options for a disposable VM: online and off. I know I can change the default VM, but I often think that it would be nice to have two options always available. (E.g. from the menus, have something like "open in disposable VM" and "open in

Hi all, I'm confused about running disposable VMs - if I open a browser or file viewer, then want to open a terminal for the same VM, how could I do this? (E.g. I want to view an untrusted file, then make some edits.) Is there a way to configure the default disposable VM in the Qubes menu? I

Hi all, I've attached a hardware report for an Asus G750JW. I can say that Qubes appears to run just fine overall, but with a few limitations. The most important is the wifi -- the Broadcom unit installed isn't supported, so no wifi out of the box. Somewhat annoying, but workable, is the
