From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Protonvpn on OpenSUSE Tumblewees (lemm.ee)

Hey everyone, I am currently tly running openSUSE tumbleweed on my daily driver and I am looking to use ProtonVPN on it. I installed the ProtonVPN GUI from the repos but it's really slow and does not seem to actually work.

I did find I can manually configure it with wireguard but I would prefer a GUI.

Any advice?

The GUI version was working a month or so ago, but a recent Tumbleweed update broke openVPN when using port forwarding via natpmpc. Bug report here https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1236718

Wireguard on the Proton GUI client on Linux is experimental, don't use it except for testing. Use the manual setup, and make sure to test for DNS leaks.
