Re: [qubes-users] Re: USB Controller passthru to HVM on Qubes 3.1
I do have a system running 3.2, but I can't keep Windows 7 running on it -- it just dies after 10 minutes or so. Does anyone have any ideas? I launched the HVM from the command line in the hopes I might see an error, but the system starts up clean -- just no device showing on Windows. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] USB Controller passthru to HVM on Qubes 3.1
I'm trying to passthrough a StarTech 2-Port USB 3.1 Card (#PEXUSB312A2) to an HVM running Windows 7, and the device does not show up. The device shows up in an lspci as: 01:00.0 USB controller: ASMedia Technology Inc.

The driver software for Windows also doesn't see the device. Is there something that I'm missing to get the passthrough to work on a Windows HVM?? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Dell XPS 15 9570 UEFI Issue
Can you post the link to the instructions you followed, please. I did finally give up on this and am back to Windows 10 on my Dell laptop; but, I'd like to give it another try. I should also mention that the ISO would never boot properly from the UEFI partition on the USB stick, so I'm guessing that since the installer would only boot in legacy mode, that that may be part of the reason I get a successful Qubes install with no UEFI boot partition. Does anyone know why the Qubes 4.0.1 image does not boot in UEFI? The partition shows up to boot from, but you just get a blank screen and no installer.

I meant to say that the xen.cfg file was 0 length; not the efi file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Dell XPS 15 9570 UEFI Issue
I had a problem with v4.0.1 hanging halfway through the install, but adding "mapbs=1 noexitboot=1" seems to have fixed the issue. Unfortunately, the system does not boot -- it does not see a bootable device. I tried following the UEFI troubleshooting article to no avail. Copying /boot/efi/EFI/qubes to /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT with all the accompanying instructions did not work. I did notice that the xen-*efi file was 0 length, so I also followed the instructions on adding the entries (with the correct file versions of course), but the last instruction talks about running the efibootmgr command, which doesn't run because there is no efivars kernel module. I personally hate UEFI, but these newer systems leave you no choice -- you CANNOT boot from an internal drive without it. Does anyone know how to resolve this? I have a nice and very expensive brick that I'd like to turn into a production system. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
