[qubes-users] Re: Win7 Qubes windows-tools v3.2. attaching any device failsf
Quick update I updated the pv drivers to 8.2.2 and now win 7 is running a lot smoother. If I attach the audio pci controller under devices in Qubes device manager. The audio will work and is recognized in win 7. That's great but Is there anyway I can get the audio to work with out attaching audio controller to only win 7? I'd like to have audio running in other appvms in parallel to hvm. Also, attaching the USB controller pci to win7 will stop win 7 from booting. It will say "no bootable device was found" when I run it. And if I try attaching any USB device through dom0 "qvm-usb attach Win7 sys-usb:2-7" I get "exception failed.

Re: [qubes-users] Secure Boot on Dell 5590 UEFI - failed signature verification
Hi, thanks for answering. I had read that post before and understood it is possible and in the plans for the future (by then) and decided to give it a try and see if someone made progress. Regarding Anti Evil Made I think it is not necessary because I set my boot config to boot from disk only and the setup is password protected. In the event someone removes the disk and tampers with the boot partition I'd like to rely on Secure Boot to check on it's integrity before proceeding. I'm not a high profile or a targeted individual. All I am is a curious person, another Joe. Cheers -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I suggest when doing so one can damage the GUI integration with Qubes. When installing packages or trying things out I've never done before I always do so in an AppVM, no the TemplateVM. The advantage being, if I mess things up all my changes to the VM are gone once I restart it. Only after testing changes successfully in an AppVM do I then install them in the TemplateVM (with the obvious exception of things I've installed before or that couldn't conceivably mess things up). /Sven -- public key: https://www.svensemmler.org/0x8F541FB6.asc fingerprint: D7CA F2DB 658D 89BC 08D6 A7AA DA6E 167B 8F54 1FB6 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

You might clone your existing (to be safe if you need anything from it) and see if it does delete the original on reinstall.

The way this is implemented in Qubes is using USBIP but instead of a network IP connection it uses the XEN qrexec mechanism: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-app-linux-usb-proxy So I tried to run USBIP in Windows and run an unchanged USPIP host in sys-usb a couple years back and that worked for simple devices / protocols (e.g. USB-to-serial interface but not more complex USB devices like RealICE debuggger). So I gave up on that and instead have dom0 scripts to easily switch the controller between sys-usb, app-dev and app-win. /Sven [1] TROND External USB Audio Adapter Sound Card with One 3.5mm Aux TRRS Jack for Integrated Audio Out & Microphone in https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L56C28R/ -- public key: https://www.svensemmler.org/0x8F541FB6.asc fingerprint: D7CA F2DB 658D 89BC 08D6 A7AA DA6E 167B 8F54 1FB6 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] HCL - Lenovo ideapad 110-15ISK 80UD laptop
I have 4.0 installed and it is fully updated to the latest versions. Its BIOS is updated to a official Lenovo version not originally supplied with the laptop. I could only install Qubes in BIOS legacy. I'm not sure what or if any other BIOS settings need to be changed from their defaults since I had changed them before Qubes. The microphone is attached to dom0 whenever it is not attached to a vm. Does that mean it is not a USB device? Is this a security threat? The TPM is unusable. Sometimes sys-net needs to be restarted after sleeping if a lot of ram is used when the laptop is going to sleep. Other than that, sleep works. Not a Qubes compatibility problem but it is important to mention; Sometimes the wifi has problems connecting which persist until sys-net is restarted. Wifi works out of the box with the default Fedora template. Debian needs a firmware package installed. The camera and microphone work out of the box with Debian. Fedora and Whonix untested. USB 2 and 3 work out of the box with Fedora, Debian, and Whonix. The DVD drive worked to read CDs. It is physically broken now so I can't test it now. I didn't test DVDs or burning disks. I can't remember what template this was used with. Ethernet and Bluetooth are untested but they might need a firmware package installed. Sorry if I might have not included all of the information needed. The legend qubes-os.org/doc/hcl mentions is not there. Hopefully anything missed will show up in the HCL files. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
