Electrum instructions have been updated
(new) Temlplate:Debian Codename Unstable
(new) Template:Install Unstable
Install software: Add Install from Debian Unstable
Switch from package electrum/buster to electrum/sid
Should any of the best practices from Debian Unstable wiki be mentioned in #Install from Debian Unstable?
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianUnstable#What_are_some_best_practices_for_testing.2Fsid_users.3F
Excellent work! ![]()
Btw codename unstable codename sid is stable. Sounds strange. True story. ![]()
Not sure. A link for sure. Otherwise whatever is useful in context of our instructions as well too. Some things from DebianUnstable - Debian Wiki at first sight don’t apply since we don’t dist-upgrade from whole sid.
New entry Frequently Asked Questions - Whonix FAQ could use a (perhaps bold, dunno) revision. Whatever needed to make it sound comprehensible and reasonable.
OK
Thank You!

No problem.
added D18 an alternative better PC than purism in here:
add vokoscreen which a video screen recorder independent DE package as an alternative to gtk-recordmydesktop which is a gnome dependent:
The wiki is filled with KDE instructions which needs to be deleted/replaced with xfce or independent packages (which is preferable).
so can you do that or would you like a hand help with it?
Hi TNT_BOM_BOM
I not sure the KDE instruction should be removed until it is no longer installed by default (deprecated). Even then users could still install KDE if they chose to so it would be a good idea to keep them. Maybe move them elsewhere (deprecated). However, that would be Patricks call. Regardless, if you want to add XFCE package instructions to the wiki go ahead. ![]()
Well it is deprecated no?
Not possible , there are lines buried inside the wiki which cant be moving as a topic. Only easy way to handle them is to switch the instructions to xfce (as i mentioned above).
btw use @ then my name so i can get notified ![]()
Whonix 14 users who started with Whonix 14 KDE can still use it until Whonix 14 gets deprecated (which is 1 month after release of Whonix 15) which is hopefully shortly after Debian 10 / buster release.
Whonix 14 → Whonix 15 will most likely have instructions how to migrate/upgrade from KDE to XFCE (unless this is technically too difficult to figure out but expected quite easy).
So meanwhile both has to be documented.
Btw we have Redirect Whonix-Workstation Ports or Unix Domain Socket Files to Whonix-Gateway - Whonix but it is unuused. ( Phabricator to Discourse Forums Migration - Phabricator Tickets - Whonix Forum )
Maybe possible to use with tcp VPN configurations?
I don’t know how that’s related. (Can’t do UDP<->TCP conversions.)
Who wrote Wiki History?
‘’‘1.’‘’ Clone the whonix-gw-14 TemplateVM and name the new clone <code>whonix-gw-14-vpn</code>. For instructions on cloning Qubes-Whonix TemplateVMs, See: [[#Multiple_Qubes-Whonix_TemplateVMs| Multiple Qubes-Whonix TemplateVMs]]
I don’t see how this is needed.
‘’‘2.’‘’ Create a new Whonix-GateWay ProxyVM based on the newly cloned template. Name this VM VPN-Gateway and set the Whonix-Gateway TemplateBasedProxyVM (commonly called <code>sys-whonix</code>) as NetVM. Make sure to check [
] the box for provides_network.
Why would a separate VPN-Gatway be based on Whonix-Gateway?
new chapter:
Tips on Remaining Anonymous
Since stream isolation is disabled i thought i would be possible to use.
That was me. Got VPN-Gateway and Whonix-Gateway a little mixed up in my head.
I"ll fix.
Edit:
Would likely degrade anonymity. Some kind of:
User -> Tor -> Tor -> VPN -> Internet
If that would even work.
Done!

What would be interesting though is a VPN-Gateway based on
Although unlikely to make major progress anytime soon.
Thanks for working on those pages! More Please! ![]()
Created https://whonix.org/wiki/Template:VPN/Setup/Support_Requests
Figure this will be helpful i.e. save us a little time.
Let me know if its OK and I’ll add to the VPN wiki pages.
