Which terminal did you use to produce the dmesg output you attached? THAT is the one you need to use to do the mode switch for your modem. Let’s call the VM that this terminal belongs to the ModemVM just for the sake of having a name for it in this message. The modem you have is actually two different USB devices in one. One of them presents itself as a storage device. That is the one that is shown in your dmesg output. Everything you read there about “HUAWEI Modem” is only coming from the device description the kernel finds through the vendor ID (12d1) and the product ID (1f01). It never sees it as a modem in a technical sense. Only as a storage device. The usb-modeswitch command some people already have been talking about is what you need to tell the modem part of your USB stick to present itself to the kernel. That needs to be executed in a terminal of “ModemVM”, since that is the VM that actually sees your USB stick. The usb-switchmode command is nothing Qubes specific. Therefore you can google about getting the modem running under the linux distribution that ModemVM is using and just follow those instructions in a terminal of ModemVM. Once you have done the mode switch, you will probably see more messages in dmesg about your “HUAWEI Modem” but this time with a different product ID under which the kernel will then identify it as a modem. Hope that clarified things for you a bit! Especially the part, where the only Qubes specific thing about all this is which VM’s terminal to use, to do it all in!

Did you post a picture? I cant see it - it would be more helpful if you provided the actual (relevant) text. First, read the docs about USB Qubes and USB devices in Qubes. Identify how USB devices are handled on your machine. Plug in a USB device (mouse,stick etc), and see how it is handled. Understand the use of `lsusb` in the sys-usb and `qvm-usb` in dom0.(Hint - read docs and manpages on these commands - `man lsusb`) Then plug the modem in to the same USB port you used before. Use your new found understanding to find out how the device is handled on insertion. If the status is changed to a storage device (where?), then search the web to find out how to change its status to a modem. Come back here once you've found the solution, or if you need help with understanding some detail of what you are doing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

See: https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/support/articles/07139/server-products.html If you're on Linux now, you can check /proc/cpuinfo for VT-d grep vmx /proc/cpuinfo if it shows the cpu flag for it, it means you have VT-d. You don't really have to check for VT-x. The qubes-hcl-report tool checks for a TPM using: find /sys/devices/ -name pcrs (https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-admin/blob/master/qvm-tools/qubes-hcl-report) TPM is required only if you want to use AEM, but it's not required for a basic Qubes installation. Those requirements are just the very first step. You should boot the Qubes installer and make sure you get to the graphical installation screen - this is a good sign Qubes will work on that machine. If you want, you can also try installing Qubes on a USB flash drive without touching your existing OS. https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/installation-guide/#installation-destination -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Please keep ONE thread - this one. Anyway, what you have failed to do so far, (as far as I can see), is to identify WHERE the modem is attached. Or perhaps you have and I missed that in the blizzard of posts. You need to start by identifying the modem in one qube. Try changing the mode there, and then see if you can pass it through to sys-net. Alternatively, use a combined sys-usb and sys-net. Once you have the device attached to sys-net you will need to do all configuration there. So please, step back, take time to identify the device and where it is attached, and THEN come back to the list with that information. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Scroll to the bottom of the message before starting typing. It's the convention here and makes messages read sensibly. I think a simple option is to interrupt the boot process and rename sys-usb, so that it no longer takes the USB controller. Are you using legacy boot or EFI? Do you have a recovery disk available or some other live distro? I'm assuming the NUC only has 1 USB controller? Can you confirm that? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] How to use the USB modem HUAWEI E3372h to connect to the internet in Qubes OS 4.0.3 ?
I can’t figure out how I can use the USB modem HUAWEI E3372h to connect to the internet in Qubes OS 4.0.3. So I hope to hear from someone who know how I can do this - especially someone who succeeded doing this with this device or a similar USB modem. Here’s what I have tried: 1) I have tried to use the NetworkManager, by adding a mobile broadband connection but that didn’t work. Here’s is how I did it (read only if you in detail would like to know how): I plugged the USB modem into the pc before I logged in. When I logged in there appeared a red network icon in the menu with the text; “No network connection” -> I right clicked on the icon and left clicked on “Edit connections” -> Add, and then followed the guide. And I have tried to add the connection both before and after I have connected the USB modems storage device to sys-net by clicking on the device icon. 2) I have also tried to find the modems Mac address in Qubes OS, but I haven’t been able to find it. For me that seems like the USB modem isn’t recognized as a modem in Qubes OS. Instead its only recognized as a storage device. 3) I have also tried to find out how to change the mode of the USB device so that I could try to change it’s mode from storage device to modem. But at this point, I haven’t been able to do that either.

[qubes-users] Re: USB keyboard and mouse no longer work
I see in the boot messages that there is one that says 'Failed to start Sys-USB'. I dont know why and cant use a keyboard to get more information.

[qubes-users] USB keyboard and mouse no longer work
Hello I need some help to get in to Qubes please. I think I did an update that might have causes this but am not sure. I use an intel NUC computer so have no option other than to use a USB keyboard and mouse. I've had qubes running for a few months now with a sys-usb and everything was fine. Today I turned the computer on and entered the disk passphrase - they keyboard worked. When qubes got to the login page the keyboard and mouse do not work. I dont think I've changed any settings that could cause this. Please help me reenable the USB. Thank you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Using Single External Storage Device with Multiple VMs

Can one use a single external storage devices to store files from multiple VMs securely, and if so, how? One option is to create a Qubes storage pool on the external drive, then move some of your VMs to it: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/storage-pools/ Is creating multiple encrypted partitions on a USB drive, each only mounted and unlocked in it's relevant VM, a good option? (This would require multiple passphrases and I believe recognizing the relevant partition from it's partition number / size, which seems a lot of effort). The answer in many of these cases is 'Yes', even without storage pools. But it can get a little complicated. Start by reading about 'qvm-block' (or the Devices GUI widget) and how to attach raw block devices to different VMs. It also helps to know about Linux storage e.g. how to create and use LUKS volumes. You can, for example, have a physical disk partition accessible by sys-usb, then 'qvm-block attach' it to a trusted encryption vm (this could even be dom0) where 'cryptsetup' is used to format/open/close the encryption layer. Then create partitions on top of that encryption layer and use `qvm-block attach' to assign them to various AppVMs where they are formatted/mounted. My implementation for that: https://github.com/3hhh/qcrypt Anyway it depends on you use case: If you trust the external device, attaching it to dom0 & additional encryption against its loss & storage pools are likely the best option. It's essentially like an internal disk then (the security properties are very similar). You might want to keep in mind that you should use a dedicated USB card/PCIE lane or mSata though - otherwise you have a shared bus with other USB devices that you trust less. If you don't trust it (you got it used from ebay, regularly give it to other people or have many enemies in general), you'll want to go the path outlined by Chris/in my implementation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
