i dont fully understand that gparted screenshot, but it looks like
you resized the partition already.

so whats missing is on one of the LVM layers of the stack.

check with "pvs", it should list a /dev/mapper/luks-something.
does that PV have the right PSize of 900+ GB?
if not, google: pvresize

next check with "vgs", it should list a qubes_dom0.
does that vg have the right VSize of 900+ GB?
if not, google: vgextend

next check with "lvs qubes_dom0/pool00".
does that pool lv have the right LSize of 900+GB?
if not, google: resize lvm thin pool

Install qt5ct and style plugins ...

Fedora: sudo dnf install qt5ct qt5-qtstyleplugins
Debian: sudo apt install qt5ct qt5-style-plugins

Then set QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct in etc/environment and reboot the
qube.

Now launch qt5ct and select the 'gtk2' theme. If you are simply using
Adwaita-Dark then qt5ct has a dedicated theme for that. Or you may
install and select the themes you mentioned.

Finally there is also the Kvantum engine with it's dedicated manager
you could search for.

I found this page supremely helpful:

[qubes-users] Global Dark Theme For Qt (KDE) Based Applications

2020-06-23 Thread Qubes

Hi

There is a very nice article in the Qubes docs, 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/dark-theme/, explaining how to (manually) 
enable a dark theme globally for your AppVMs. A fairly straight forward 
settings might I add. But the setting only applies to GTK (GNOME) based 
applications.


Would anybody here know how you apply a global dark theme to your 
AppVM(s) for Qt (KDE) based applications like Amarok, Krusader, etc?

[qubes-users] Re: Happy Father’s Day

2020-06-23 Thread River~~
No problem, I understand.

It's also worth looking at the OU.

They accept ppl onto their foundation courses without prerequisites. Most
of their foundation courses are 60pts, some are 30pt. Once you get 120pts
that is equivalent to having completed the first year at Uni.

Back when I was working for them, many unis would accept 60pt in lieu of A
levels, and with 120pt you could transfer in directly to their second year
(this is sometimes called credit transfer).

The other advantage of the OU is that they are set up for distance
learning, so they are inevitably better at offering support that way than
anyone else in the UK (tho admittedly I am biased). And any college you go
to, whether for a degree or for A levels is going to be doing much of the
next term by distance.

Turning to Cambridge: yes they are world leaders for some engineering
topics, and some physics topics (eg radio astronomy where they are second
only to Manchester).

I think you will do well academically with their collegiate and tutorial
systems: you get a lot more face to face time in small groups than at other
British Unis (apart from Oxford which is similar). You enjoy arguing, and
the chance to discuss your studies with a small number of fellow students
under the guidance of a tutor will work well for you.

We had that at Manchester to some extent, but tutor groups were larger and
met less often than at Oxbridge.

On the social side you might find the upper class twit Culture nauseating.
Ditto Oxford. Or you might find a pull towards challenging that politically
especially if you find yourself alongside the Camerons, Johnsons, and
Rees-Moggs -- and that could distract from your studies. That was why back
in the seventies I chose not to even apply for Oxford or Cambridge, much to
the dismay of my teachers who set much store by the numbers of pupils they
could get into Oxbridge. It was the sort of school that had boards up
showing all the pupils who had brought honour to the school by getting into
those two unis, lists going back to well before WW2.

The same applied to the interview process. Even with the perfect A levels,
more than any other uni, Oxford and Cambridge reject a lot of applicants at
interview (or at least they had that reputation back in the day).

My suggestion is to  do two more bits of research.

Firstly ring up the Edinburgh OU office and ask to make an appointment for
an informal chat with one of their advisors. When you speak to the advisor
explain that you are looking at the OU as a step towards entry to
engineering at Cambridge.

You can also in normal times visit the library at their office and look at
course units, prospectuses, and so on -- with Covid it would be worth
phoning ahead to check.

If i was that advisor i would encourage you to start with the Technology
foundation course (which includes engineering as well as other applied
sciences). It used to be a 60pt course, which supposedly took 14hrs study
per week for nine months.

If you feel keen, and can do the equivalent of a full time student for nine
months, also do Science or Maths. Ask for the prospectuses for STEM
foundation courses to be posted to you (unless you prefer to look online).

Be clear that you want something at the level of a first year of an honours
degree. You feel you are ready for that, and explain that access courses
and similar would be wasting your time.

Also, ring the Cambridge advisor people (do they have specific advisors for
mature students?)  and ask what their attitude is to taking OU students:
would they interview you for starting their engineering degree  at the
first year with 60 or 90 pts credit in relevant subjects? With 120pts would
they consider going directly into the start of the second year or would it
still be the case that you'd go into the start of the first year?

They are not going to promise anything: they may change their rules in the
meantime, and if they do it could work for you or against you. So if they
seem to be avoiding the question, make it clear that you are asking about
current practice and you realise that it could change.

And you still might fall at the interview stage: whatever qualifications
you get, they will still want an interview

This are my thoughts: ring tonight or tomorrow if you want to discuss this
further, not this afternoon as I'm busy

Love you
R~~

[qubes-users] New Windows Launching Wrong Monitor

2020-06-23 Thread Qubes

Hi

I have two monitors connected to my Qubes laptop and it works really 
well with one exception. When ever I launch certain programs, or a 
settings window of that program, the window always opens on my laptop 
screen, even though I have one of the external monitors configured in 
System Tools > Display as the Primary display. I assumed that everything 
will, if anywhere, always open on the Primary display.


Is there somewhere else where I can tune this?

[qubes-users] Kernel Panic using kernel-latest from current-testing and RX5700XT

2020-06-23 Thread Jarrah
Good Morning,

Is anyone else getting a kernel panic at "amdgpu_debugfs_init" booting
the new 5.7.4-1 kernel from current-testing with an AMD GPU?

I'm not particularly worried about it because the GPU didn't work with
4.0 anyway and the bug doesn't affect 4.1. I'd like to know whether
anyone else has the same problem.

Workaround (assuming you have another GPU) is to add
`modprobe.blacklist=amdgpu` to your kernel parameters. Though if you
only have AMD GPUs, this will block them.

Thanks,

Jarrah.

Re: [qubes-users] How to split into two gateways

2020-06-23 Thread Jarrah
> Can someone please tell me if you were able to achieve the following?

Yes, the machine I am on has this setup.

Both sys-net VMs have a dedicated NIC PCI passed through to them. They
each have a sys-firewall, which each has VMs on it.

I cloned the original sys-net, but if you follow the instructions for
creating a new one, it should work fine.

> I was able to handle the firewall rules and everything else but I cannot make

> tell me step by step how you achieved that?

Try just doing the passthrough first. If you can get the NICS to show up
in `lspci` in the two sys-nets and configure networking so you can ping
out.

Command to attach the NIC: `qvm-pci attach sys-net2 dom0:`.
PCI-address can be found in the output of `qvm-pci`.
