Intel NUC Support - Frost Canyon

After added the sys-usb VM, below my own archived tutorial for using a USB NIC.

For using a USB NIC:

  1. sys-net/Qube setting : remove all the devices
  2. sys-net/Start
  3. dom0/Terminal: qvm-usb for finding the USB NIC, ex: sys-usb:3.3
  4. dom0/Terminal: qvm-usb attach sys-net sys-usb:3.3
  5. sys-net/Terminal : ‘usb-devices’ display the USB devices of the VM
  6. sys-net/Terminal : ‘ip a’ display the network interface and the current IP
    => sys-net notifies that a new connection is activated, the red network icon displayed in the tray bar

On next boots, with Qubes Devices, set the USB NIC to sys-net. (I noted this in my tutorial but I don’t remember why, so useless or useful you will see)…

If this works for you, the next steps are:

  • update dom0
  • install the kernel-latest
  • sys-net set to using the kernel-latest (Qube settings, Advanced, kernel)
  • set sys-net to use the now detected NUC internal Ethernet card (driver e1000e) : device 00:1f.6 and set the ‘no-strict reset’ option

Good luck :wink:
