Qubes doesn't use video acceleration as it is less secure. Mplayer is IMO the best option for video playback in VMs, as it focuses a lot on optimizing without using acceleration. You can also sacrifice some quality for speed with some of these options: mplayer -vfm ffmpeg -sws 4 -lavdopts skiploo

I personally have pillars in /srv/pillar/tops_d and added the top file /srv/pillar/_tops/base/tops_d.top. The top file includes relative paths from /srv/pillar/ with a dot instead of a slash: base: '*': - tops_d.statefile1 - tops_d.statefile2 - tops_d.statefile3 - tops_d.statefi

2019-11-29 Thread 'hut7no' via qubes-users
tetrahedra via qubes-users: By default Qubes comes with two templates for AppVMs: a Debian template and a Fedora one. But many people seem to clone templates, so they also have an e.g "fedora-minimal" template or a "-multimedia" one or any number of other variations. Why not just have "one temp
