running it in debug mode together with compatibility mode, normal start up menu, logo then code lines that say ““ok”” then black screen
only running in debug mode then just regular mint cinnamon, same thing start up menu and logo then black screen.
I have not installed anything in dom-0 or in the qube itself, qube is a standalone empty qube, hvm
I can see that its working, its running but I just dont see anything, its a black screen. Could this have anything to do with drivers or video carts related?
+were can I find the drives in the guest? Im new so sorry if this question seems dumb.
go to the guest location (generally /var/lib/qubes)
Open the root drive.
Delete the SLIM startup files that I think is what you are using in the guest.
That will set it up to go to text only for login.
From there you can do a StartX
This will hopefully provide more insight.
I think that you are facing what I faced a long time ago with Qubes and some things starting up properly.
Mine did close to the same thing, and booting to text, then loading X worked best for me.
I even did this for Qubes.
Resolved a tonne of issues, even removed a few vulnerabilities for people breaking in to the system.
If you have a location, maybe share the guest with me and I can take a peek at what the issue may be?
To do this, you would go to the guest location, then just " tar -zcvf {guestname}.tgz {guestname} "
Then you can easily upload it for download.
Once it’s archived an ls -alh will tell us how large it is for uploading to a secure location.
If interested, let me know. Would be happy to take a squiz at what the issue may be if the above possible resolution doesn’t resolve it.
