I am in the situation when it comes to this as a lifelong windows user. What would you say is the learning curve for using Qubes is? How easy would it be for someone who is slightly technical, yet not IT, to problem solve a problem in Qubes? In windows I Ctrl+Alt+Del and go through that rigmarole. It depends highly on the individual, but if you're coming from a purely Windows background, the biggest thing might be adjusting to a Linux environment. In general, the most important qualities will be perseverance, a willingness to learn, and the ability to solve your own problems. (Of course, the mailing lists are here to help, but things generally don't work very well if someone makes no effort and expects to be spoon-fed solutions.) I find most problems on Windows are either moderately easy, or impossible. Digging for answers to difficult issues results in few results and they are usually dead-ends. Since Qubes uses Linux, it tends to follow that culture. Easy problems can be annoyingly fussy to resolve, but really difficult problems usually have a deep profile of related documentation and discussion spread around various websites. Its more probable you will make progress on difficult issues with continued perseverance and curiosity. The biggest obstacle over time is probably the over-reliance on the command-line interface. Relatively little of the configuration matrix is expressed in the GUI, so the GUI feels more superficial and less able to control the system at deeper levels than it does on Windows. This makes users who expect streamlining and integration weary. Also, do not expect the rule of "This is a PC, so it'll run this PC-compatible OS" to hold water. Most PCs are "Windows PCs" and many of the quirks that certain models have may be OK with Microsoft but untenable with Linux or Qubes. Business-class computers from top-tier brands are your best bet. Check out the Qubes HCL link on the download page. *3. *I understand your OS is security based, and that is super cool. Yet security is useless if there is nothing to protect. "Out of the box" what can Qubes run? It's better to turn this question around: What *can't* Qubes run? It sounds like the main problem in your case may be the lack of 3-D support: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/user-faq/#can-i-run-applications-like-games-which-require-3d-support To get around this problem, you would have to attempt GPU passthrough, which is not supported (but which some users have managed to achieve on their own). I will venture to make a suggestion on this gnarly subject: A desktop or tower PC will fit this scenario much better than a laptop will. You will need the freedom to buy particular models of GPU and/or experiment with other models in a process of trial and error.

A bug in the VM Manager occured when I went to rename a VM, the VM files were renamed but the VM Manager didn't update it's records and still showed the old name. It leaves a bunch of references to something that no longer exists (in the VM Manager and in the application menu). I haven't succeeded in reproducing this bug, I was renaming a HVM template I had just installed an OS onto and shutdown.

The second time around I did something different with qubes-r3.list... I think I enabled stretch-testing and stretch-securitytesting before doing the update & dist-upgrade. The other thing I did differently the second time: When I was prompted to auto-restart services, I chose the default "No".

[qubes-users] Re: Redox OS
Hello, yes, it would be nice to use RedoxOS as sort of graphical Unikernel VM. RedoxOS could be used for: - password managers (isolated password manager VM) - graphical pgp/certificate management - IRC/XMPP chatting - network isolated file storage for confidential files - disposable VMs in the future: - email - browsing RedoxOS could be used to provide per-application isolation. However, the biggest advantage of RedoxOS is the small memory and storage footprint. RedoxOS requires approx. 128 MB storage space and needs less memory than most Linux distribution. I installed it in June on top of Qubes OS and it was running fairly well for being a new operating system. It still has some rough edges. I especially liked the simplicity of the graphical desktop environment (Orbit). best regards J.

What worked for me: Delete or erase the concerning lines in ~/qubes-builder/qubes-src/core-agent-linux/Makefile (line 99f): #install -m 0755 init/*.sh vm-systemd/*.sh $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR)/qubes/init/ and #install -m 0644 init/functions $(DESTDIR)$(LIBDIR)/qubes/init/ Do what these lines would have done manually by copying the contents of ~/qubes-builder/qubes-src/core-agent-linux/init and all the *.sh-files in ~/qubes-builder/qubes-src/core-agent-linux/vm-systemd into ~/qubes-builder/chroot-archlinux/home/user/qubes-src/core-agent-linux/pkg/qubes-vm-core/usr/lib/qubes/init Then run "make core-agent-linux-vm" again.

Thanks. Corrected a few typos / improved readability: 1. dom0: qubes-dom0-update gcc kernel-devel kmod kernel-headers; (qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable if using newer kernel) 2. appvm: download NVIDIA-Linux-375.20-install.run (any appvm) 3. dom0: qvm-run --pass-io 'cat /PATH/TO/NVIDIA.run' > NVIDIA.run; chmod +x NVIDIA.run; 4. dom0: ./NVIDIA.run --ui=none --no-x-check --keep --extract-only 5: dom0: cd NVIDIA-*/kernel/; make module IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=y CC="gcc -DNV_VMAP_4_PRESENT -DNV_SIGNAL_STRUCT_RLIM"; 6: dom0: sudo cp nvidia.ko /lib/modules/4.4.31-11.pvops.qubes.x86_64/extra/. 7: dom0: sudo depmod -a; modinfo nvidia (all working will show up fine) 8: dom0: EDIT GRUB or EFI; add rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau (to kernel options) 9: dom0; reboot and enjoy nvidia support.

[qubes-users] Re: 3.2 Install: Error unpacking qubes-template-fedora-23

My system is locked up and unresponsive so debugging doesn't appear possible. It's installing using UEFI, will try a legacy boot instead.
