Good Morning everyone!
I am currently running fedora kinotie 41 and am trying to figure out how to install protonVPN on it, I would prefer the GUI version but that is just me. I can’t seem to find any guides or anything online and I would appreciate any help!
Thanks!
There is an unofficial Flatpak version that works perfectly fine for ne. If you use KDE, you need to fo this in addition however: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE_Wallet#Automatic_D-Bus_activation
ProtonVPN is on Flathub, I’ve had no issues with it.
If you don’t mind. You can try to setup proton VPN with network manager(which I am pretty sure have native WireGuard support). But I am not sure if you can do that with atomic OS or not tbh.
Yes, default network manager gas Wireguard profile for VPN and auto-connects at startup on Kinoite and derivatives.
Add the rpm from protons website then rpm-ostree install package name.
This is one of the situations where layering packages is appropriate.
This is what I do for Bazzite and Mullvad.
I can’t get it to update through the repo while layered, so I’ve had to uninstall and reinstall using the new rpm each time. I keep saying I’m going to get around to troubleshooting it and then forget about it until the next update.
I have no solution, just wanted to point to this for further information gathering. Seems lot of people have this issue: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/search?q=protonvpn. The official Linux installation guide for ProtonVPN is here, but I don’t think they cover Atomic systems: https://protonvpn.com/support/linux-vpn-setup/
