Hi guys,
I am new to Garuda and Arch and have had trouble with my VPN, Private internet access, and split-tunneling. I was using split tunneling on previous debian-based distros, both Mint and MX without issues.
Currently when I turn on split tunneling, and apply to all apps, it gives me an error that it could not configure DNS. When I first installed, stock settings allowed it to apply the vpn to everything. Once I turned on split tunneling it gave a generic error. Since then changed the DNS with garuda assistant which I was unable to turn off (setting Garuda Assistant > Settings > DNS to blank causes it to revert to the last selection, possible bug). Either way, before and after it has not worked.
When I turn VPN off for all apps, but select apps which are supposed to be subject to the VPN, it does nothing but does appear to connect successfully. Add an app to put behind vpn, it does not affect.
In PIA settings, I attempted it with default openvpn, i attempted it with the WireGuard option. Tried with UDP and TCP and with various different DNS options they offer including existing DNS.
I also deleted the app and reinstalled it, which nuked my settings and put me back at defaults. Still did not resolve.
As of now, I cannot even use the app with all stock settings without split tunneling to send everything through the VPN: it gets a DNS error likely from dns change in garuda assistant.
I wondered what additional information other than the inxi below I might provide that might help me track down the cause of this.
