[qubes-users] grub2-mkconfig not found

[zackptg5]

Hi all, I'm a new qubes user and have been following the guides to get trim 
enabled for the dom0. Everything seems to have gone smoothly until the grub 
steps. I can't find a grub.cfg file anywhere. The only abnormality to my 
installation is that it's UEFI. So the closest thing I did find to this was 
/boot/efi/EFI/qubes/xen.cfg which had the kernel line referenced in the trim 
guide. However, when I attempt to run grub2-mkconfig -o 
/boot/efi/EFI/qubes/xen.cfg I get "grub2-mkconfig: command not found"
All that is present in the /boot/grub2 folder is a themes folder. I am using 
the main dom0 terminal for all of this.

Considering that everything boots fine, I'm hesitant to reinstall grub2 (I 
assume it would need to be grub2-efi in this case). Any clue as to what's going 
on? Thanks

 Is it just me? or it it a system failure?

Do you have a USB Qube? If not, you need to make on following Axon's
instructions above. Otherwise, I would check your USB Qube's attached
devices with Qubes VM Manager (the Devices tab in the USB Qube's
settings) and make sure your USB Controllers are selected.

[qubes-users] Re: Unable to install R3.1 / media check failure

[Gabriele Bini]

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem. This is what I did:
1. I downloaded the Qubes-R3.1-x86_64.iso ISO from the Torrent.
2. I checked the signature and the hash values in the DIGEST file (I checked 
just the hash values in a second PC) and everything was fine.
3. I used dd to copy the ISO in a USB flash drive (Sony 8Gb)
4. When I booted from the USB I tried the “Verify and Install” option but, 
exactly at 4,8% (as for Cory Nelson) the check failed. There was a message of 
this type (copied by hand):
Failed to start media check on /dev/sdc
See 'systemctl status checkisomd5@-dev-sdc.service' and 'journal.ctl-xn'  for 
details
5. I couldn't check anything because the system was halted

What can I do?
Thank you in advance!

[qubes-users] How to remove KDE from dom0?

[Torsten Grote]

Hi all,

I installed Qubes 3.2 with KDE and XFCE with the intention of continuing
to use KDE as I did before. However, there were so many problems and
bugs that I decided to use XFCE in the hope of having less of those.
Although, it is not bug free, it works a lot better, so I would like to
remove KDE from dom0 now.

I already tried removing the @kde-desktop-qubes group, but that wants to
remove all sorts of other rather essential packages.

Kind Regards,
Torsten

[qubes-users] Tool to record Whonix / Tor browsing history..?

[neilhardley]

I would like to be able to do something like:

1. Use Whonix/Tor as a disposable VM

2. Record browsing history using an external software

One of the reasons I don't use Tor that much (other than slow speed, captchas 
etc) is because I actually want to have a record of the websites I have visited.

We know that it could be risky to have the Tor browser itself record history, 
if it gets hacked.

But to have some tool running outside of the VM would be useful..

Is that possible..?

[qubes-users] How to install "tl-wn823n" wlan mini usb stick in qubes ?

[Fox]

this is the instructions in the driver files from the tl-wn823n website.
I have no success so far how to do it with qubes ?
want to attach the usb wifi stick to my sys net. this device does not even get 
recognized by qubes but lsusb shows there is a device plugged in.


1. Development Environment
System version: Ubuntu 14.04.1
Kernel version: 3.16.0-30-generic
Gcc version:4.8.2


2. Compile the Driver

2.1. Compilation tool and kernel sources
Before you compile the driver, please make sure you have the correct compile 
tool and
kernel sources.
We can install compile tool gcc by command “apt-get install gcc”
Note : We recommend you use a suitable compile tool to compile our driver.
For example:
According to the command “cat /proc/version”, we could see your linux system is 
compiled
by gcc4.8.2. So we recommend you use gcc4.8.2 to compile our driver if possible.




2.2. Compile and install the Driver

1. Access the directory of driver.

2. Before compile, make sure the parameters in “makefile.c” is suitable for your
compile environment of your Linux system.

ifeq ($(CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC), y)
EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_LITTLE_ENDIAN
SUBARCH := $(shell uname -m | sed -e s/i.86/i386/)
ARCH ?= $(SUBARCH)
CROSS_COMPILE ?=
KVER := $(shell uname -r)
KSRC := /lib/modules/$(KVER)/build
MODDESTDIR := /lib/modules/$(KVER)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
INSTALL_PREFIX :=
endif

Explanation:
· KSRC is used to specify the kernel source path for driver compilation.
· CROSS_COMPILE is used to specify the toolchain.
· ARCH is used to specify the target platform's CPU architectures such as arm, 
mips,
i386 and so on.
1If your Linux kernel does not support 802.11, please annotate macro

“CONFIG_IOCTL_CFG80211” in “makefile.c”.
CONFIG_IOCTL_CFG80211=n
ifeq ($(strip &(CONFIG_IOCTL_CFG80211)),y)
EXTRA_CFLAGS + = -DCONFIG_IOCTL_CFG80211 = 1
EXTRA_CFLAGS + = -DRTW_USE_CFG80211_STA_EVENT = 1
endif

3. Type “sudo make” to compile the driver file.

4. Type “sudo make install” to install the driver file.

Cool, and the workaround mentioned there

sudo ln
-s /usr/lib/pulse-8.0/modules/module-vchan-sink.so 
/usr/lib/pulse-9.0/modules/module-vchan-sink.so

still works like a charm.

Thanks!
