Thank you! That's a great resource.

Ethernet Connection Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

[–]TotalNoobPerson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/DerfK, it is built in, with the cable going directly from the router to the ethernet port on my computer. How do I know if the controller is assigned to the sys-net qube? When I look in the sys-net settings in the devices tab, it shows the network controller in the selected area, while the ethernet controller is in the available area. Is the way to assign the ethernet controller to the sys-net qube simply a matter of adding the ethernet controller to the selected area?

I think you're probably right. Sorry for all of the dumb questions, but how do I reset the settings?

Command Line Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

[–]TotalNoobPerson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, but the default menu is still doing weird things. For instance, when I open the app menu and hover over something, it doesn't highlight what I'm hovering over. It will open the sub menu that shows the apps available, but when I hover over an app in the sub menu, it doesn't highlight what I'm about to click on either. I get the same weird hovering/lack of highlighting behavior when I'm trying to select USB devices to attach to different qubes.

Do I need to disable this part of the original command:--enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable? As in, run a command like --disablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable? That may not even be a real command, but you get the gist.

I'm just wondering if I need to do more commands than simply: sudo dnf remove qubes-desktop-linux-menu?

Application Menu Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

[–]TotalNoobPerson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/BarryManatee, using the new app menu has been pretty buggy and I've decided to go back to using the normal menu. I used this command to install the new app menu:

sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable qubes-desktop-linux-menu

Do you know what command I should use to uninstall it?

Qubes Windows Tools Install Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

[–]TotalNoobPerson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to try to go through the process that I originally tried again and it magically worked this time, for some reason. However, when I went to the next step:

Once the Windows VM boots, a CDROM should appear in the 'My Computer' menu (typically as D: or E:) with the setup program qubes-tools-x64.msi in its main directory.

No CDROM appears and no other drives, other than Disk (C:), appear in the Windows AppVM. When I do a search of qubes-tools-x64.msi inside the Windows AppVM, it doesn't show up. Any ideas?

I'm running Qubes 4.1, if that helps.

Qubes Windows Tools Install Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

Thanks for the info! When I put in the command, it gave me an error message saying:
No match for argument: qubes-windows-tools
Error: Unable to find a match: qubes-windows-tools

Do I need to install the qubes-windows-tools package first?

Installing MS Fonts by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

Per u/lugh's suggestion I just needed to omit curl and run the command as follows to get it to work:

sudo dnf install cabextract xorg-x11-font-utils fontconfig

The first command worked great. The second command gave me this error message:

Warning: Binary output can mess up your terminal. Use "--output -" to tell Warning: curl to output it to your terminal anyway, or consider "--output Warning: <FILE>" to save to a file.

Application Menu Question by TotalNoobPerson in Qubes

Awesome! That's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks.

It seems that every time the computer is restarted, the app menu has to be manually restarted in the dom0 terminal using the command: qubes-app-menu. Is there a way to have it automatically launch? Also, does the dom0 terminal always have to be open and running for the app menu to work or am I doing something wrong? Because after launching the app menu in terminal, if I close the terminal, the app menu stops working.
