​Hi,

​

​I went to this page https://airvpn.org/linux/ selected Linux, 64bit, Debian/Ubuntu, Graphical UI, and then downloaded the file "eddie-ui_2.12.4_linux_x64_debian.deb".

​

 

​So then I right clicked & selected "open with software install"​, then selected "Install" and nothing happens. It does not install.

​

I'm new to Ubuntu/Linux and I'm just wondering if someone can point me to a guide or can help me solve this issue. On OS X its just a matter installing it and signing in, simple. Not so simple with Ubuntu.

​

​Thanks

​

Welcome 404nbt

 

try :

 

open a terminal in the folder where you downloaded the .deb file

make yourself root in the terminal

as root use the command dpkg -i  eddie-ui_2.12.4_linux_x64_debian.deb

see what happens

​I $ cd into Downloads and run the command you suggested and it worked but I had to install some dependencies as was recommended in Terminal. All is working fine now. Thanks for taking the time out to help.

 

Edit: To be clear for others, this is what I did.

 

so, $ cd /Downloads

Then: $ sudo dpkg -i  eddie-ui_2.12.4_linux_x64_debian.deb

Then $ sudo apt-get install gksu

 

Wait until install finishes, then:

$ sudo apt-get -f install

 

Wait until the install finishes,

 

Finally,

Then Open Eddie, sign in, select your server, and wait until it connects. Then go to https://ipleak.net and check that you're not leaking your ip or dns.
