Best & Easiest Installation VPN ?

Hello,
I've had this issue before, I couldn't seem to get mullvad installed on my X60 and months later, finally revisiting this issue. I probably am not that tech inclined to install it, although god knows I've tried, so does anyone suggest an alternative to someone very new to all of this ? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I have mullvad on my T530 running Debian and on my X220 running mint, but for some reason I can't figure out how to get it installed on my X60, and this has been the main reason why I haven't been using this machine as my go to machine and I feel its my last hurdle to actually using this wonderful little machine that I'm so proud to have.
Thanks
I have the same issue on my X60s.
Are you really sure it's computer model (hardware) related issue?
Have you tried openvpn?
I don't know about mullvad, but I use a free proton vpn, downloaded a server config (udp) and connect via openvpn command:
sudo openvpn servercfg.ovpn
Unfortunately I couldn't set it up with network manager on trisquel. The VPN connects, but does not resolve webpages. But through the terminal it runs ok. I made myself a little script to start and stop it and placed an icon on desktop, so I don't have open a terminal to start vpn every time.

I want to test proton vpn on debian
10. Would you write a tutorial? You do not
install software other than packages in
the repository?
https://github.com/ProtonVPN/linux-cli
I would rather avoid inatalling this piece of
software. I do not know if this is one of
those programs which do not tell how to
uninstall the program again. All the
required packages are in the
repository.
install
network-manager-openvpn network-manager-openvpn-gnome
openvpn resolvconf
I do not know if all are required.
https://account.protonvpn.com/signup
get a protonvpn account. Or protonmail
account.
Log in on your protonvpn account. Select downloads ->
gnulinux -> server configs
Download configuration files you want to
utilize.
On your gnulinux system left click
network manager. vpn connections -> configure
vpn -> import saved vpn configuration. Import the
ovpn file. Enter protonvpn username and
psswrd. Start protonvpn selecting left
click network manager -> vpn connections.
How about installing it on your router? Mullvad support gave me a reply and this link. This might solve your problem. I could not make it because I forget the password of the router but you might be able to make it. Good luck.

PS: Because I have mistaken them, so I say just to make sure, though. A router is not a server.
Have you upgraded to a newer kernel via -
https://jxself.org/linux-libre
I know Mullvad requires a newer kernel than what Trisquel ships by default.
Beko:

In that case, perhaps it will work better on Etiona (Trisquel 9)? You could try installing a dual boot of Etiona on your X60 and see how that works for you.
