Hi Jasper thanks for all your help,

i downloaded your pet copied to my root folder on F96-CE_5-alpha4 tried to install, moments later it returned red error sign saying

" piavpn-3.6.1-08339-x...pet is named piavpn-3.6.1-08339-x86_64 inside the pet file. Will not install it! "

FWIW when installing it created root folder 2 files 3.6.1-08339....temp.backup and 3.6.1-08339-x...tar.xz

Jasper im pretty slow, re Are there additional options available ie Debian/Arch/Slackware packages? - no only one linux run program and older versions.

Also, do they have a list of requirements eg Qt6 ? dont know anything about that, - but will also look

Please delete the previous PET file and use this one instead.

**REMOVED LINK**

I am using Fossapup64-95 and am not a subscriber to PIA VPN. So my testing is limited just to show you the application does run.

Thanks Jasper, tried your newer one exactly the same error. Could it be a naming issue? just guessing. Kenneth

Thanks i understand. i quickly downloaded Fossapup64-95
booted etc but no support for my wireless Intel AX200 adaptor, DRIVERS, this version of Fossapup is a couple of years old so yes.

It is strange behaviour and I have no further explanation.

Hopefully, someone else can assist you further.

Jasper again thanks for all of that. Funny enough it installed in EasyOS but would ( not go into the progsam the app/prog came up but you could not logon it was just hanging type of thing)
but EasyOS for me no disrespect to Barry at all, has always been flakey regarding networking, cant quite pinpoint it)

Oh well i will continue with my older vers, again thanks.

Have you tried running it via terminal?

piavpn

It should give you some messages.

Worth a try?

Have you tried running it via terminal? do you mean in EasyOS which seems to install but not work, in Fossa it wont install at all and tells you with error, so installing in terminal probably no go. Will try tommorow.

thanks all working perfectly, simply had to just rename your .pet to piavpn-3.6.1-08339-x86_64.pet
