LIAR <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version|Unspecified |4.12.0 --- Comment #1 from LIAR <[email protected]> --- Sorry I cannot find how to edit my initial text: I didn't finish one sentence: "- Need to be able to switch " => "- I need to be able to switch on/off a proxy when I move my laptop from cable (on) to wifi (off). * As I didn't find a convenient way to do that with XFCE (*), I wrote a 2 scripts : one that toggles the proxy system-wide by creating/removing the empty /tmp/PROXY_ACTIVATED file, the other that sets/unsets the http[s]_proxy env variables (according to the existence or not of the /tmp/PROXY_ACTIVATED file) then run the command passed as argument. * Then, I need the launchers of firefox/thunderbird/falkon/chrome to execute the "command" field via this script rather than directly" Apart from the panels crashes, this settings works perfectly. I provide all this information for 2 reasons: - as I think my using of scripts (user owned & executable, full path used in launcher's command field) in the "command" field of launcher might be the source of the trouble for the panels - (*) other people confronted with proxies might be interested by the settings, since XFCE lacks simple way to manage it (editing "connections" proposes only "None" or "Automatic" as proxy settings...). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Xfce-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.xfce.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-bugs
