Known issues ------------ +Building an Ubuntu 14.4 LTS template can be difficult ([see](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/w0uZNr8nno8)). +A workaround is creating an ubuntu HVM A and use X over ssh from a second vm B ([see](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/-wkG7E55PUI)). +To do this you have to enable networking between A and B, or set B as netvm of A. +If B supports copy and paste or seamless mode so does (indirectly) A. (you will be missing some features. e.g.: send file to vm A) +Doing this reduces the security of A to the security of B! +This is no problem, if B's only purpose is providing X over ssh only for vm A. + If you want to help in improving the template, feel free to [contribute](/wiki/ContributingHowto).
