-Set your proxy in "System/Preferences/Network Proxy" -apply system wide -In "System/Administration/Synaptic/Settings/Preferences/Network" set your http proxy. -Reboot I think the key point here is a reboot ; maybe just a restart of update- manager or Network-manager wuold have been enough. -- Ubuntu 10.10: proxy settings are not detected in some applications like empathy or update-manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658445 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
