Hi Cubes-Community,
I have problems with the Qubes installation on Dell XPS 13 9310. (probably because of the intel Iris Xe)
With default BOOTX64.cfg i had a blackscreen.
After hours of reading troubleshot and forums the qubes-verbose part is the following:
[qubes-verbose]
options=console=vga efi=attr=uc
#noexitboot=1
#mapbs=1
kernel=vmlinuz inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Qubes-R4.0.4-x86_64 i915.force_probe=*
ramdisk=initrd.img
Now I see after starting the installer at least a mouse, but no GUI starts.
According to the notes from https://groups.google.com/g/qubes-users/c/P5oXyk7QOFE/m/hEROXm0tBQAJ
"make sure networking is attached to bring up GUI.
I had to combine sys-net and sys-usb in the install options because I was using a docking station for ethernet."
Is it really necessary to be connected to the internet for the gui? How can i combine sys-net and sys-usb to install with Network connection? (notebook has only usb-c inputs, ethernet only with docking station)
All other options like
nouveau.modeset=0 iommu=no-igfx
or
efi=no-rs
had no effect. Legacy mode is also not available.
I know 4.1.0 is only a test version, but would it be an alternative if necessary? There a GUI is displayed and I can install qubes. However, no templates are installed. In the Template configuration window all options are gray and not selectable. Default dropdown empty. Also under /mnt/sysimage…/ the template folder is empty.
Hope someone can help.
