PIA vpn

Installed Q4OS today. It runs well on my Dell 5520 laptop. PIA vpn installs ok, but will not start. It integrates nicely into the network notification area in panels in  Ubuntu, and Linux Lite, and will also autostart at boot. On Q4OS; no autostart, and no response if I try to manually start it. I,m hoping someone has a clue as to how to get it running. PIA site states there linux version "Requires Ubuntu 18.04, 17.10, or 16.04, Debian 9+, Mint 18+, or Arch". Not sure what version of Debian Q4OS is based on...

Here is install procedure:  https://www dot privateinternetaccess.com/installer/download_installer_linux?version=latest

Re: PIA vpn

Please try to install Q4OS Network manager from the Software centre first, reboot and setup the PIA VPN. Reboot again and check the network manager applet in system tray for PIA presence. As Q4OS is Debian 9 Stretch actually, you need to follow Debian Stretch directions.
