The official guide from Proton, https://protonvpn.com/support/ios-vpn-setup/, requires the use of "OpenVPN Connect" app.

Some inspiration from this guide: https://surfshark.com/blog/how-to-setup-vpn-on-iphone, tells me that I can possibly setup vpn manually on iOS via:

Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management > Click on the VPN tab.

Click on Add VPN Configuration.

. .

However, I will need the following information::

  • Type: IKEv2.

  • Description: Your preferred name of the connection.

  • Server: The hostname of the server.

  • Remote ID: Copy the hostname you put in the Server line.

  • Local ID: Leave it empty.

  • User Authentication: Username.

  • Username: Put in the service credentials,.

  • Password: Put in the service credentials,.

  • Proxy: Off.

    Tails - Tails 6.4
  • for some reasons, I can’t verify the signature of the files.

    I downloaded tail-signing.key from https://tails.net/tails-signing.key

    then made a keyring file.

    ran gpgv --keyring ./tails.keyring tails-amd64-6.4.img.sig tails-amd64-6.4.img

    it gave me error saying using EDDSA key 26D26… Can’t check signature: No public key.

    I even tried using the same keyring for 6.3 and it was fine. Only for this version I;m having trouble.

    Anyone would please confirm the SHA256SUM if you could verify the signature?

    What 2FA app are you switching to? (iOS)
  • Tofu is an option but I’m afraid it might not be maintained.

    They made an annoucement 2 weeks ago about switching maintainer.

    https://github.com/iKenndac/Tofu

    2FAS

    They only support iOS/iPadOS 16.4 or later.. no go for me

  • Both are interesting choice, which one do you choose?

    Do you think people would be okay with 'Recall' if Apple did it?
  • I found it really weird too, Microsoft pushing Recall, an AI feature, vs Apple pushing Apple Intelligence, an AI feature.. and only Microsoft got backfired.

    Proton VPN on Linux very slow
  • Without VPN the same downloads are much, much faster ofc

    same,

    I know many people suggested downloading the openvpn or wireguard config file, but I like the convenience of starting the app and connecting to whatever the fastest server is.

    But still the current app isn't the best, I hope they will improve soon

    QEMU cannot launch the latest Pop!_OS image
  • worth noting that I updated all my virtual machines created with 36.iso to the latest kernels, etc, and they function without any problems..

    I can't get the fresh installs using 37.iso and 38.iso to function (always blank screen)

    1
  • I'm using the virt-manager to install Pop!_OS on a virtual machine from the latest ISO image (...38.iso) with QEMU for testing:

    GRUB starts okay, running the tests. Then the QEMU window turns completely black and nothing changes for hours. This didn't happen with the previous ...36.iso of the image.

    Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you!

    note that, this issue has been around since ...37.iso

    It is fine when not put in full screen. When i put it in fullscreen mode, it shrinks to about 1/3 to 1/4 and moves to upper left corner. This happens only on a wayland session/

    my laptop resolution is 2256x1504, while my monitor has standard 1920x1080. when I start Pop is always default 200% scale, even I changed it to 100% before. I have to manually set it to 100% scale on my laptop and monitor. But it would not sustain. When I unplug hdmi and reconnect, everything goes back to default. Is there any ways I can optimize this? thank you
