- Update to Fedora 41; - Change default Fedora template to Xfce variant; - Enforce Fedora based formulas to depend on a chain that always has the correct management disposable set. For 'qubes-builder,' it requires 'mgmt', which requires 'fedora-minimal', which requires 'fedora-xfce'; - Cleanup salt patch necessary on version 39 and 40. - Update base templates when stale before being cloned to derivative templates. - Remove non-essential bootstrap formulas from requirements. Dom0 was never required, but very recommended, templates were required because it was best to update them on their formula before generating outdated clones of it.

sys-gui-gpu
GPU GUI domain in Qubes OS.
Table of Contents
Description
Setup a GPU GUI domain named "sys-gui-gpu". The GPU is attached to the qube and all graphics computation are handled by this qube. Requires a dedicated graphics card (external GPU) and PCI passthrough support.
Installation
WARNING: unfinished formula.
- Top:
sudo qubesctl top.enable qvm.sys-gui-gpu pillar=True
sudo qubesctl top.enable mgmt sys-gui-gpu
sudo qubesctl --targets=tpl-mgmt state.apply
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui.prefs-mgmt
sudo qubesctl --targets=tpl-sys-gui,sys-gui-gpu state.apply
sudo qubesctl top.disable mgmt sys-gui-gpu
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui-gpu.prefs
- State:
sudo qubesctl top.enable qvm.sys-gui-gpu pillar=True
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui-gpu.create
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --targets=tpl-mgmt state.apply mgmt.install
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui.prefs-mgmt
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --targets=tpl-sys-gui state.apply sys-gui-gpu.install
sudo qubesctl --skip-dom0 --targets=sys-gui-gpu state.apply sys-gui-gpu.configure
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui-gpu.prefs
The formula assumes Intel graphics card, if you have a card from another
vendor, please use
qvm-pci
to persistently attach the GPU with the permissive option to sys-gui-gpu
.
Shutdown all your running qubes as the global property default_guivm
has
changed to sys-gui-gpu
.
Uninstallation
Reboot you computer and prevent Qubes OS autostart of any qube, be it
sys-gui-gpu
or the qubes connected to it to reach dom0. For that, you need to
boot Qubes OS with
qubes.skip_autostart GRUB parameter.
Only after you have done these steps manually, you can continue the
uninstallation procedure.
Set Global preference default_guivm
to dom0
and disable autostart
of
sys-gui-gpu
:
sudo qubesctl state.apply sys-gui-gpu.cancel
Usage
Qubes that have their guivm
preference set to sys-gui-gpu
, will use it as
the GUI domain.
The process to enter sys-gui-gpu
can be a simple logout, but on most
platforms, a reboot is required and recommended to prevent data loss.
The login credentials are the same used in dom0
, the first user in the
qubes
group and the corresponding password.
