I have a fresh Manjaro install from the Image 3 days ago (Minimal Image/GNOME Version). I want to add my wireguard VPN Connection. How can I do that? In Settings>Network>VPN plus symbol I am asked for a VPN config file!?
What config file format do I need to provide here? Do I miss a package which needs to be installed? As far as I can remember, in the past there was a GUI where I can configure my tunnel.
In NM, wireguard is not considered a VPN, it is its own type. This type is not supported in Gnome Settings. You can install nm-connection-manager and then add a new Wireguard connection. But nm-connection-manager can’t import a wireguard config file.
Thanks. That did the trick. I installed the network manager applet, created the wireguard connection and now I can select the vpn tunnel (above the dark mode switch button).
Yes the panel shortcut for VPNs shows both, VPN connections and Wireguard connections. This is new in Gnome 43, in 42 it would not show Wireguard connections.
Unfortunately, was this was not added in Gnome Settings, it still ignores Wiregaurd connections and don’t let you create one. I hope this will changed in Gnome 44.
