Mooltipass hardware wallet with vault

thimbles_taxidermist · July 31, 2025, 2:52pm

I am trying to use the mooltipass wallet with a Vault appVM.
I have compiled the software: GitHub - mooltipass/moolticute: Mooltipass crossplatform daemon/tools
(currently the appvm based on fedora-41-xfce).
The device is working as it is supposed to when I am attaching it to various qubes in order to write passwords but the main issue is:

when I am running the moolticute software on the Vault AppVM to add new passwords and do configurations although I attach it with sys-usb the program doesn’t recognize it.
Any way on how to troubleshoot ?

The software needs some udev rules that can be found here:

github.com/mooltipass/mooltipass-udev

udev/69-mooltipass.rules

master

# udev rules for allowing console user(s) and libusb access to Mooltipass Mini devices

SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", KERNELS=="*1209:4321*", MODE="0660", SYMLINK+="mooltipass_keyboard", TAG+="uaccess", TAG+="udev-acl"

LABEL="mooltipass_end"

I tried to save them on the /etc/udev/rules.d/ but as it is an AppVM it didn’t save it on restart.
Where should I save them so they survive the restarts? (not sure if that is the actual issue though)

Do it in the template or use bind dirs:

~~Or try to use /usr/local/etc instead of /etc ?~~

Great! that seemed to be the issue.
Thanks a lot
