@shoryuken thank you, that worked!

@ali.molaei I'm not sure of technicalities of dependencies, but if you cannot force network-manager-applet as a dependency I think you should at least pin some comment explaining that getting it might fix issues. As it stands I accidentally found the solution at other package page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/protonvpn-cli#comment-951908, and only since it's the newest one.

I have an error. "Reconnection not possible due to authentication error." but I enter a right password. Any ideas?

When we are going to get latest release 4.1.20? It's been a long time since it has been released!!

@texer22 Mine is a little different, though the last message is the same:

@marcin Yeah... it's kinda optional tbh. But the fact that i can't find a way to auto-connect or quick connect specifically to a p2p server is bugging me! It's a downgrade, but i'm still going to use this version because if there is a vulnerability, it will get patched.

marcin commented on 2024-02-25 10:03 (UTC)

@XxTriviumxX

Permanent kill switch is not supported in this new version of linux client. Same as wireguard.

XxTriviumxX commented on 2024-02-20 14:58 (UTC) (edited on 2024-02-22 15:07 (UTC) by XxTriviumxX)

how does one connect automatically, on startup, to a p2p server from my country (emphasis on p2p)? This is the only thing preventing me to use this app... it was pretty doable with this autostart script:

#!/bin/bash

protonvpn-cli c --p2p

edit: and what about permanent kill switch? it got removed!

GER_Jan commented on 2024-02-18 15:21 (UTC)

For those who still have Problems with not being able to connect to the VPN:

  1. install network-manager-applet
  2. add nm-applet to autostart or to your config if your using a Tiling WM.
  3. either restart your PC or start nm-applet
  4. Open ProtonVPN and connect.

Now it does not work for me even on VM... https://imgur.com/a/ELmEjT1
Previously, I could start the app but I couldn't connect and now it does not even start. I am on OpenRC.
