TemplateVMs and VMs
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
(see the [TemplateVMs customization](#templatevms-customization) section for how to configure the templateVMs)
|
|
|
|
### TemplateVM 'fedora-minimal' ###
|
|
|
|
Custom minimal template for:
|
|
|
|
- VM 'sys-firewall'
|
|
- VM 'sys-net'
|
|
- VM 'vault': not networked; used for keepassxc (password manager) and [split gpg](https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/split-gpg/)
|
|
|
|
### TemplateVM 'fedora-medium ###
|
|
|
|
Custom default template with libreoffice, thunderbird, ...
|
|
|
|
- VM 'work': firewalled, ssh to known hosts and to mail server; used for emails/office work, storing non confidential documents, and terminals (with [tmux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmux)).
|
|
- VM 'banking': firewalled, only a few IPs allowed; used only for e-banking
|
|
- VM 'halftrusted': used only for e-shopping
|
|
- VM 'private': not networked; used for opening and storing private documents
|
|
|
|
### TemplateVM 'fedora-heavy' ###
|
|
|
|
Larger custom template with programs from non-fedora repos (multimedia, non free, ...)
|
|
|
|
- VM 'untrusted': firewalled, only a few IPs allowed (eg. nextcloud server, ...); used for opening multimedia files, and content that is thought to be OK. See [this comment](https://github.com/Qubes-Community/Contents/issues/21#issuecomment-385189481) for the rationale behind keeping this VM without full Internet access.
|
|
- VM 'sys-usb': firewalled, only 1 IP allowed (playing music from a NAS to a USB soundcard).
|
|
- dispVM 'dispBrowser': doc / WIP; used for casual browsing. Using with a customized firefox profile with privacy extensions and a custom `user.js` file (adapted from [here](https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js)).
|
|
- dispVMs: used for opening content downloaded from unknown/dodgy sources as well as browsing sites that won't work with the restricted firefox profile of 'dispBrowser'.
|
|
|
|
### Other VMs ###
|
|
|
|
- a few Windows 7 VMs without network for CAD/3D drawing, programing controllers with a Windows-only toolkit, ... ;
|
|
- a StandaloneVM based on fedora with third-party drivers installed for a networked printer. Firewalled to allow only the network printer's IP.

|
### Xterm ###
|
|
|
|
Open xterm instead of xfce4-terminal: in `/etc/xdg/xfce4/helpers.rc`, set
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
TerminalEmulator=xterm
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Xresources for xterm are in `$HOME/.Xresources`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Power management ###
|
|
|
|
See https://github.com/taradiddles/qubes-os/tree/master/powermgnt
|
|
|
|
(not clear how much it helps with battery usage - never had the time to do proper testing; shouldn't hurt though).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Productivity tweaks ###
|
|
|
|
Define application shortcuts with Qubes Menu -> System Tools -> Keyboard -> Application Shortcuts; for instance:
|
|
|
|
- ctrl-alt C: open a calculator in VM untrusted ; shortcut: `qvm-run -q -a untrusted galculator`
|
|
- ctrl-alt X: open a popup windows to open xterm in a given VM (script [here](https://github.com/taradiddles/qubes-os/blob/master/popup-appmenu-r4), screenshot [there](https://github.com/taradiddles/qubes-os/blob/master/popup-appmenu.screenshot.jpg)). Shortcut: `popup-appmenu xterm`.
|
|
- ctrl-alt F: ditto, but with firefox
|
|
- ctrl-alt K: open keepassxc in VM vault; shortcut: `qvm-run -q -a vault keepassxc`
|
|
|
|
|
|
VMs customization
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
sys-net: since nm-applet isn't started by default in all VMs (see section below), start it with a .desktop file in `$HOME/.config/autostart` (note: can't use `rc.local` because Xorg isn't started yet when `rc.local` runs).

### fedora-minimal ###
|
|
|
|
Installed ITL's fedora-26-minimal rpm + installed the following rpms:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
qubes-core-agent-passwordless-root
|
|
qubes-core-agent-networking

|
|
openssl
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Fixes/tweaks:
|
|
- `/usr/lib/qubes-tweak`:
|
|
- `fix-xdg`: remove autostart stuff in `/etc/xdg/autostart`; this will prevent for instance nm-applet from starting in all VMs while it's only required in sys-net.
|
|
- `setxkbmap.desktop`: multiple keyboard layouts (see [this doc](https://github.com/Qubes-Community/Contents/blob/master/docs/localization/keyboard-multiple-layouts.md)).
|
|
- `solarized.vim2`, `vimrc.add.colors`: configure vim to use the [solarized](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized) color scheme.
|
|
- `Xresources` and `xresources.desktop`: load Xresources at boot (can't simply use `/etc/X11/xresources` because `xinit` runs `xrdb -merge` without the preprocessor, which breaks the solarized color scheme definitions.
|
|
- `/etc/profile.d/interactive-commands.sh`: ask before deleting/overwriting files with rm/cp/mv
|
