Widgets

Available widgets are:

  • qui-domains - Domains Widget, manages running qubes
  • qui-devices - Devices Widget, manages attachment/detachment for devices
  • qui-disk-space - Disk Space Widget, warns about low disk space
  • qui-updates - Updater Widger, notifies about available updates

How to run

The widgets should be always available in the widget area of the desktop manager. They are run (and restarted on crash) by systemd services:

  • qubes-widget@qui-domains
  • qubes-widget@qui-devices
  • qubes-widget@qui-disk-space
  • qubes-widget@qui-updates
  • qubes-widget@qui-clipboard

In case of problems, you can view system log with journalctl --user -u qubes-widget@[widget_name].

Policy editor

To run the policy editor, use

$ qubes-policy-editor-gui file_name

You can use an existing policy file name to edit an existing file (e.g. 90-default), name an include file (e.g. include/admin-ro) to edit it, or name a new file to create it.

The policy editor will not allow you to save a policy file with syntactic errors, so it's preferable to use it rather than directly editing the policy files.

Translation

To add more translation languages, add a directory in locales with a name corresponding to the target language code, with a subdirectory LC_MESSAGES in it, copy the file locales/desktop-linux-manager.po into it, and edit its headers to reflect the translation details.

To update base translation files, use the update_translation.sh script:

./update_translation.sh

To test if a translation is working, set the LANG environment variable to desired language and encoding:

LANG=pl_PL.utf-8 qubes-update-gui

To push translations to transifex (you will need your own transifex API token):

tx push --translation

To update transifex source files:

tx push --source

To get translations from transifex:

tx pull
