Fix it the same way you did the other, except in the

Thank you so much for the help i really appreciate it as i have no clue what am
doing but love qubes :)

Not sure if you can help with something else .

on (https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/installation-guide/) it say to go in nano and
fedora and change the http to https is that also for qubes 4.0.1-rc1 ?

That should already be fixed in 4.0.1-rc1. Glad you're enjoying Qubes!

That's what i though but when i went in the nano for domo the for the first
fix i saw it was still the same as when i was using the 4.0 , not sure if i
should open a new thread or just do the change ?

Won't hurt to change it. Can change it back if it does.

Re: [qubes-users] Manjaro Spitfire laptop with Qubes 4.x?

I agree it is good to see the smaller manufacturers making efforts...the market 
is clearly for Gaming. I would love to see a security centric offering though.

I tried sending a note to Majora, they have a Forum and a Feedback link. I sent 
them a note on the feedback link but it just clocks...I didn't want to sign up 
for the forum so didn't ask there.

Maybe they will respond here?

[qubes-users] Re: update broke whonix, can't reinstall

I had problems trying to upgrade as well...I ended up doing a fresh install, 
during the install I selected Whonix NOT to be installed.

After the install I then added Whonix-14 (I didn't have to delete the old).

Did this a while ago and have updated a few times with no issues...

Bit of a sledge hammer solution...hope it helps.

Look for recent posts to this mailing list with the above subject line

[qubes-users] Re: install problem

Bernhard...keep in mind I am no expert but I have managed to get 3.2 and 4.0 
working(Not on a DELL) but here are some thoughts:

1) Look thru your BIOS settings I found I had to tweek them to get my system 
installed.
2) Did you run 3.2 on this machine and are now upgrading to 4.0. If not I would 
again look at your BIOS.
3) When you do the reinstall are you able to wipe the old install? During the 
install process you can wipe out the old install. I have had to do this a few 
time. You are prompted during install...take your time and look at all options 
during install.

Thats the best I can offer...good luck.

Re: [qubes-users] HCL - Purism Librem 13 v2

Unman your posts have been extremely helpful to me and I can't thank you enough 
for the help(I am sure many others would agree).

However I think your "..Pretty easy to maintain.." would be hell for me.

Librem(and maybe the Majora line) have huge appeal for me as they take care of 
the BIOS flashing.

I checked out the x230 and you are right they are available and cheap. I would 
still be interested in finding some company/individual who I can trust to take 
care of the BIOS flashing for me as a service(I would think others would also 
want this service as well...). The problem is who?

Thanks...

good questions, but:
1) Dont know, but good question.
2) Didnt reach out, but they had a bunch of different distros as an

While I am not holding my breath on the BIOS, I am happy enough that at

Re: [qubes-users] Re: Updated Debian template-Recieved "Configuring grub-pc" message??

Thank you both for the comments...

In the message I remember a statement: "..This menu  allows you to 
select...automatic run for, if any...running grub-install automatically is 
recommended". I believe it also said something to the effect: "...will use the 
previous selection..."

Considering I already completed the update and everything is working should I 
be concerned? Would anything bad already have happened? Next time I'll pick try 
the "/dev/xvda" file and see what happens but does it default to the same 
selection as prior to the upgrade when nothing is selected?

Thanks again...

Have a look at https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/template-implementation/
This explains the way in which those devices are used.

As you'll see, aaq, your understanding is quite correct.

The simplest way to remove (most of) KDE is, I think:
dnf remove kdelibs,plasma-workspace

Removing those packages pulls out those that depend on them while
leaving Xfce (and X) untouched.

Though why you would want to remove Plasma? So easy to configure and
customize, and really enhances Qubes experience.

2018-11-11 Thread LMiller M

Thank you that worked perfect! Very much appreciated! I think I have enough
to help with some documentation for the true beginner.

Both laptop and pc, Qubes is running and I’m learning more of the operating
system. Great OS, this platform is awesome.

I do have a question, adding vpn? Or just running a qube with Tor.
Recommendations of adding a vpn

Also it seems pointless to adding a Windows Os to. VM I’m Qubes. Just
running a template qube seems ideal?

Thanks to everyone who has jumped in with help! I hope I will be able to
assist others to pay it forward.

[qubes-users] install problem

2018-11-11 Thread haaber


Hello,

I try to install qubes-4.0 on a new dell with i7. I got the base system 
installed. After few minutes I observed freezes (qube-manager, also 
app-vms.) I decided that a restart may be a good idea. Since then, the 
system refuses my luks-password (I tried 12 times, using 4 intermediate 
reboots). Then I gave up. I restarted the installation process from 
scratch: the installer CAN use my luks password and see the "old" 
installation. So the passphrase is right indeed.


What can I do? I feel damn stupid right now (the keyboard is US-standard).

Thank you, Bernhard

So..

I ended up deleting most of the packages (if not all) by hand. Unfortunately, 
my system is in a limbo mode right now. The notification front end still looks 
weird (in dom0), and my lightdm is presented with a black background. Other 
than that, my system works fine.
Kind of annoying in this state, but works. My OCD is just getting the best of 
me :)

It would be nice with some comments in the documentation on the website about 
KDE being hard to revert from, or at least some specific instructions on how to 
revert. I would be more than happy to contribute with that, but I am going to 
need some help with the steps needed.

Hope someone will chime in!

Hello!

This is fairly common when upgrading the kernel in Debian.
In Qubes OS there are multiple mounts inside each Qube, and thus apt-get asks 
you where / or /boot is mounted, so that it knows where to upgrade grub.

To my understanding (without having looked into it any further), I have kept 
guessing that the / dir is mounted in what is called /dev/xvda inside the Qube. 
I generally always mark that, and then it happily continues without any angry 
warnings.

Would welcome any clarification too though :)

Those are my 2 cents at least!

Regards

[qubes-users] Updated Debian template-Recieved "Configuring grub-pc" message??

I just updated my Debian template and received a "Configuring grub-pc" window 
in my terminal, through trial and error I discovered that I was able to select 
"OK", and select configurations using the curser arrows and the space bar (->, 
<-, etc...).

I haven't seen this on a Debian update before but I had the option to select 
what I think are devices for grub-install...maybe 4 choices. I used the space 
bar and selected all of them but then received error messages. I then selected 
none of the options(devices?) and the update continued. The update appeared to 
just continue finishing with "Press enter to shutdown...", no obvious error 
messages like past template updates. Everything appears to be working despite 
what appeared to be scary warnings in the terminal.

Restarted the computer...no issues. Sorry to not have more info I wish I had 
taken screen shots.

Was I supposed to select something? Any way to check? What was the window?

I am using 4.0...

Thanks again,

[qubes-users] Removing KDE

2018-11-11 Thread aaq via qubes-users

Hello everybody!

I wanted to try out KDE with Qubes 4, but found that it was simply too much 
compared to my needs.

Unfortunately, removing KDE again isn't as simple as installing it. My biggest 
issues is that it hijacked some core components across the system, even though 
I am not using KDE (such as the notification frontend among other things).

I found an old thread where Marmarek suggested using `dnf mark install` on the 
packages that dnf wrongly tries to remove, but dnf remains way too aggressive 
in what it wants to remove.

Basically dnf wants to remove everything X related, not only the KDE stuff 
installed.

If anybody knows any way of reverting and purging KDE completely, I would be 
eternally grateful!

Otherwise I might just have to backup all my stuff and go for a reinstall :(

Thanks in advance!

PS: Lesson has been learned.. don't mindlessly install unncessary things. 
Thanks.

lenovo x230s are still widely available, and great for Qubes. Limited to
16GB RAM, but even with HDD and 12 GB perfectly serviceable for
Qubes4.0. And *cheap*.
Pretty easy to maintain, and no problem with flashing BIOS from linux.
I'd still recommend - boxy is the new black.
