Hi, even with the new fix, I continue to struggle. 1. In Firefox I set proxy configuration to Use System Proxy Settings. 2. On Gnome-control-center I set my proxy and click on Apply System Wide 3. Proxy is set on /etc/environment and all http_proxy variables are set. 4. Firefox doesn't connect to internet (Chrome neither)
The only way I can manage to use the proxy is setting it manually on Firefox -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/795519 Title: Add back system-wide network proxy settings Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center Using Oneiric alpha1 and gnome-control-center 1:3.0.2-1ubuntu4.
