Now that you mention, I've also recently seen some GUI lagging I've not 
experienced before. However, also the combination of vms/applications
I'm using while the lag appears is something I've not used before so I 
cannot be sure if it's new or not.

If it is a new issue, I don't think xen has much to do with it since I've 
run 4.6.4 for quite long time already.

And before somebody suggests, this GUI lagging is unrelated to the VM 
freeze issue that is known to be caused by the gui-agent changes (and a 
fixed version of it is already in -testing repo). No freezing occurs,
just slow to draw and somewhat lagging input side.

[qubes-users] Severe Lagging after latest dom0 , seeking backup solution

2017-04-26 Thread Mike ru q fed 


*hope this isn't dup, tried via gmane, but dont see that it appeared

Update of qubes.foo.* and Xen-4.6.4-26.fc23 x86_64 packages in Dom0 -> 
slow lagging mouse and window behavior  ; luckily  I new qube user and 
just kept reinstalling,  which fixed the behaviour,  I've update debian 
and fedora and whonix now  and all is well,  however,  I'd like to 
update dom0  but  don't trust it, after  specifically updating only the 
packages labeled  qubes-xxx and Xen-xxx   , rebooting and confirming the 
problem.


I have the installation on a standalone SSD , and I have another HD with 
Fedora OS in the same machine.


I'm wondering can I clone the SSD of Qubes  as a backup in case I try to 
update dom0 again . or is there any alternative, suggestion , I 
don't have the logs from the bad dom0 updates because I reinstalled over 
the top ...


I was told on reddit that this is a known issue, however, reviewing the 
newsgroup  I don't see any mention of lag after dom0  updates,  I not 
expert level with linux , but used Debian back in the day , so can 
handle a certain level of tweaking only


thanks in advance,  Pimm
