[qubes-users] The Star Labs StarBook is Qubes-certified!

2024-01-10 Thread Ulrich Windl (Google)
I had a look and was surprised: A German keyboard layout would cost almost 400€ 
extra (while 16 GB more RAM cost only about 80€). Also the CPUs seem rather 
slow (1.2 GHz), and no option for recent AMD CPUs.
The configuration interesting for me would have been around 1700€ with s weak 
CPU and possibly weak graphics, too.

[qubes-users] USB issue in 4.2.0?

2024-01-04 Thread Ulrich Windl (Google)
Hi!

It seems there is an issue with USB devices in Qubes OS 4.2:
When shutting down s VM that has an USB device mounted, thst USB device is not 
returned to the list of available devices. I had to unplug/replug it to be able 
to reuse.

Kind regards,
Ulrich

Hi!

Wondering about "Dom0 upgraded to Fedora 37

Is it planned to upgrade before final release?

Re: [qubes-users] Re: Issue with "Qubes release 4.2.0-rc3" | USB Installation Media not detected in UEFI BIOS

2023-10-05 Thread Ulrich Windl (Google)
I didn't try the ISO, and I know little about UEFI booting, but current Linux 
ISOs seem to be partitioned CD-ROMs: A type 0xef EFI partition (4MB), and a 
type 0x17 hidden NTFS partition (that is actually ISO9660, containing the 
actual files)...

Kind regards,

[qubes-users] Installation problem on Dell Inspiron R15 laptop

Hi!

Actually you won't have much fun with only 8 GB RAM; 16 is probably OK, and 32 
or more is nice. Remember that at least four operating systems have to run 
(Dom0, net, firewall, app).

OK,

after reading the document my original question still stands:
Not having sys-usb I can mount USB sticks by "delegating" them to a VM.
My question was whether a similar mechanism exists fur a YubiKey instead of an

Am I the only one having a problem with Qubes spontaneously

Happens every few weeks. Sometimes just 1 or 2 weeks, sometimes 5
or 6. Got it on Qubes 3.2, and now 4.0 too (new installation, not
upgrade), multiple times.

Unlikely to be a hardware problem. The system passed both
memtest86 and a multi-day mersenne prime stress test. And other
OSes tested on this hardware before I switched to Qubes, including
Debian and Windows, never had a problem.

The rebooting seems completely random. No apparent trigger, and no
warning. Acts like an instant hard reset. Sometimes even when the
system is idle, and I haven't touched the console for hours.

It's wearingly inevitable enough that I don't even bother
intentionally rebooting after system updates anymore, in order to
minimize how many reboots I have to deal with (setting my
workspace back up is an ordeal), because I know the system will
end up spontaneously rebooting a week or two later anyway.


I'm having this problem too. I hadn't had it for a while but in the
past week or so it's happened a few times. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad
T440p with Intel Core i7, and Qubes 4.0 which I keep updated.



I had this problem which was due to Intel AMT Control being enabled 
in

the BIOS. Since turning this off my system has not rebooted.

Thanks for the suggestion, Chris. I appreciate it. I checked and 
Intel
AMT was already disabled so I guess something else must be causing it 
in

my case.




and what does
#journalctl -r   say if anything ?


In a dom0 terminal if I type "journalctl -r" I see a lot of info.
Anything in particular I should look for?


for instance if your machine spontaneously rebooted sometime between 
2019-05-13 23:30 and 2019-05-14 you could issue:


journalctl --since "2019-05-13 23:30" --until "2019-05-14" -p debug 
--no-pager | grep Reboot --before-context 42


this will output the final 42 log entries just before your machine 
rebooted.
i'm stuck with the same issue (as i described here 
https://www.mail-archive.com/qubes-users@googlegroups.com/msg28344.html 
) and my guess is you won't find anything useful in logs. anyway, i feel 
your pain. calling unman et al. : what systems are sporting 60+ days 
uptime?

system may appear stable for over a month then flat-out reboot or may 
reboot within days. quite unpredictable.
tried toggling rc6 for i915, downgrading xen, kernels, disabling 
microcode_ctl, downgrading bios version and toggling assorted bios 
options. nothing.
fan works, sensors register values within operating range, reboots 
happen also when system is idle.

not a clue in logs (with default verbosity.)
in short, my trusty X220 has turned into a mysterious timebomb.
switching hardware in order to regain a solid (as in mucho uptime) 
system.


to unman, could you be a little bit more specific about the rig you 
mentioned which seems immune to this particular issue?

anyone else with system uptime 60+ days?

That's interesting, on my Win7 from 3.2 the tools do not seem to work.
But I can confirm the network issue, I must set another DNS server after every
