Hello everyone! First my congratulations to all that develop Trisquel.
Amazing distro! The look is awsome and the time response is amazing!
Now my problems: I first installed Trisquel 6 at work and being behind a nasty proxy I can´t connect to the internet. Here is what I have: if I type in the shell
"export http_proxy=http:/user:passwd@ipaddress:port" it works. In Abrowser I configured the proxy but it doesn't connect to the internet and makes the system very very slow. I installed midori configured it and it connects just fine. Another thing, when I click on the icons near the clock they appear to open a bigger window and then they show the correct window, it's a bit hard to explain this. I have then tried it at home and it does the same.
Thanks guys!

edit: I was confused about the second part but now I understand

I have tried connecting through a proxy before too at school, and it is a pain. One thing that worked for me was using the "auto-detect proxy settings for this network". After that, I was asked to put in a username and password when I visited a page, and wasn't asked again. See if that works.

I too see this and it's very ugly.

Thanks for your reply.
I installed gconf-editor but still doesn't work.
