[qubes-users] X Startup Failed, Aborting Installation. Pane is Dead.

[dennisjmenzel]

Full transparency, I’m completely new to Qubes. So treat me like I’m an idiot. 

I’ve dd’d the iso onto my usb 3.0 drive using Rufus.

When I run the installer legacy it opens the installer GUI. 

I’ve tried:
• regular install of R4.0.3. 
• test this media and install Qubes R4.0.3
• ran UEFI text only installer. 
• different usb drives. (But same brand.)
• different USB ports 

Always, I get the message:
X startup failed, aborting installation. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

[qubes-users] Multiple X sessions in Dom0?

[brendan . hoar]

Can Qubes support multiple X sessions in dom0? 

e.g. default session on primary terminal (via ctrl-alt-f1), then start 
another session on the third pty (ctrl-alt-f3) after logging in as the 
primary qubes user in dom0?

 I start it via .desktop file in .config/autostart.

It really is a handy tool. I use it for other things like mapping domains 
to certain workspaces.

[qubes-users] Updating sys-usb template

[Zbigniew Łukasiak]

My sys-usb uses a very old template. I tried some googling - but
failed to find any advice about update it without locking me out of
the system.
I guess I could remove it - there is a description on how to do that
in https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/usb-qubes/ - and then add it again
with a new template. But it is kind of complicated and looks
dangerous.

I had the same problem. I used devilspie2 to solve it.

Install it to dom0:
sudo qubes-dom0-update devilspie2

then create a .lua file in .config/devilspie2 with the following text:

window = "LibreOffice";
windowname = get_window_name();
if (string.match(windowname, window)) then
maximize();
end
 
Here is a nice tutorial about devilspie2, if you are interested:

You may find that setting it to Hibernate may actually turn it off.

Hi,

I've created a new Telegram (see https://www.telegram.org/ for more info)

in the future you are invited to join this group: https://t.me/QubesOS_user_de

The same again in German:

Ich habe eine neue Telegram Gruppe angelegt für deutschsprechende Benutzer
von QubesOS, da es so weit ich weiß bisher keine solche Gruppe gab.

Wenn Du ein deutsch sprechender Benutzer von QubesOS bist oder planst
in der Zukunft QubesOS zu benutzen bist Du eingeladen, Dich dieser 
Gruppe anzuschließen: https://t.me/QubesOS_user_de 

Liebe Grüße, Peter Funk

Hm, you're right.  I wonder when that changed.

I had a look online, but can't find anything that brings the option
back, sorry.
