Are you still having problems with this?

you should do:

'qvm-pci --offline-mode -d  '

you can use first 'qvm-pci --offline-mode -l' and find the device you
want remove.

[qubes-users] using Arduino development environment with Qubes OS

2016-07-17 Thread peabo
I'm converting a machine I used for Arduino development to use Qubes.

The docs indicate support for USB stick, keyboard, and mouse.

I'm wondering if I can gain access to /dev/ttyACM0 or similar devices in a 
specific VM?  This is a usual USB-to-serial interface used by Arduino.

Qubes really isn't that hard to use,  but for some reason its got that stigma 
attached to it.  Its different is all it is.   Anyone who uses windows and 
doesn't need to play games can use it imo.  I taught my family how to update 
qubes,  attach usb block device from usbvm, use the different vms for different 
tasks,  copy and paste,  transfer files between vms.   Its all with mouse and 
gui, whats the big deal?

I dunno I just wonder how you find 200 bugs lol.  most people using qubes don't 
have such problems.  When your a normal person you don't go looking for 
problems.  As long as it can do what you want to do.   All these problems don't 
seem to be the case for most users.   Is there really a difference in 
networking between 3.1 and 3.2?  I wonder what it is. You sure you using the 
best drivers?  Maybe the kernel is the difference.

[qubes-users] rsync ssh connection in AppVM failing

2016-07-17 Thread paulstansell
Hello,

I've recently installed Qubes-3.1 and I'm trying to rsync files from
my home desktop to my Qubes machine.

I have about 30 GB to transfer, but each time I try to pull files from
the desktop to the Qubes Personal AppVM using rsync I find it stops
transferring after about 100 to 200 MB.  I'm running rsync on the
Qubes side which does not crash, but I have to kill it with Ctrl-C
as is seems to freeze.

Also, monitoring the transfer rate shows it to be very on-and-off and
stuttery with long delays where nothing is being transferred until
eventually it stops altogether.

I can run and kill rsync a few times before I get "ssh: port 22: No
route to host" messages.  At this point "service sshd status" tells me
the process is "Active: inactive (dead)".  I can try to restart it
with "service sshd restart" which seems to work as "service sshd status"
tells me the process is "Active: active (running)", but after this
rsync still fails with "ssh: port 22: No route to host" messages.

At this point I resort to rebooting my Qubes machine and going through
the process again with similar results.

I can do similar transfers between other home machines just fine.

Any ideas why Qubes is having problems?

Thanks

I'm guessing that it has to do with the nvidia-specific quirks implemented 
where the PCI BAR's are used to access the PCI Config Space and other BAR's. 
See: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/hw/vfio/pci-quirks.c

I think before others worked around it somewhat by reserving the memory and 
having 1:1 mappings ( 
http://www.davidgis.fr/blog/index.php?2011/12/07/860-xen-42unstable-patches-for-vga-pass-through
 ), but that isn't really a proper solution.

[qubes-users] HCL and 3.2RC1 observations

2016-07-17 Thread Doug Hill
New user to Qubes over the last few months.  Many thanks to the
developers for creating this clever OS, and the users who have
contributed to this group.  My setups were smoother as a result!  I've
been successfully using 3.1 on a T420.

Attached is a HCL for System76's Meerkat.  Nice little machine, but
appears to have only one USB controller, so keyboard, mouse, USB drives
are all in dom0.

Under 3.2RC1, the only major issue I'm having (on the meerkat) is this
(under xfce):

If I manually turn off my external HDMI monitor, or if system suspends
it, upon powering it back up, the monitor reports "no signal."  I have
to reboot the machine... Turning off suspend is my short term solution.
This situation did NOT occur on the T420, RC1, xfce, and VGA.

I tried using KDE, and essentially the same error occurred, but KDE
returned the following before becoming unstable: "Executable plasmashell
PID: 4007 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)"

Confirming the below bug report in RC1:

Enigmail 1.9 is incompatible with Split GPG on Debian 8
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2170
In my case, "vault" is stock fedora-23 and client is gently modified
whonix-ws. Worked under 3.1, VMs migrated to RC1 by backup/restore.

Happy to provide any further debugging info, just please be explicit in
your directions as I'm a noob at the command line in linux.

Thanks,

Doug

[qubes-users] [3.2RC1] i3wm bad performance.

2016-07-17 Thread Mathew Evans
I'm getting the feeling the issue might be a lack of nvidia graphics drivers.

TLDR version:

 - Installed i3 and i3-settings-qubes
 - configured .config/i3/config how i wanted it.
 - anything CLI works perfectly fine.
 - anything GUI will render very very slowly, you can see it rendering as it 
goes down the screen.

No idea why the horrible performance, my only thought my laptop has a nvidia 
980m gpu and it isn't being used at all. IF the performance issue is likely a 
lack of nvidia drivers, is there a updated guide to install it (current one is 
outdated, xorg-x11-drv-nvidia seams to be missing for fedora23 with rpmfusion)

as a second question, is there a timeframe for Qubes to ship with improved 
nvidia support?
