There are two main ways in which you can set your proxy:
1. *Through GUI:*
a. Open Settings

You are done. This is the easiest way I can see.
2. *The command line way:*
Open X-Terminal and either
(a) Type the following command every time
*OR*
(b) Open Terminal and create a file (you will need to have "vim" or other
text editor package installed) ".profile" and enter the following
export http_proxy=http://username:passw...@proxyserver:port/

You can omit the username:password, if your proxy server has no password.
Hope this helps :)
