 Posted: Wed Apr 16, 2014 10:26 am Post subject: [SOLVED]set proxy for chrome in MATE Desktop |
 |
|
Hi guys,
i'm using chrome in MATE desktop behind proxy server.
so the first problem is how to set proxy for chrome.
first, to set global proxy, i wrote the proxy setting to file /etc/env.d/99local,
and i'm sure it works for the emerge & links running well, but,
chrome cannot get the proxy setting, just cannot connect to internet.
then i tried to set proxy using the settings of chrome itself, but it just complained:
| Code: | When running Google Chrome under a supported desktop environment, the system proxy settings will be used. However, either your system is not supported or there was a problem launching your system configuration.
But you can still configure via the command line. Please see man google-chrome-stable for more information on flags and environment variables. |
then i tried to set proxy using MATE preferences: Main Menu > System > Preferences > Network Proxy,
it did not work also!
i saw someone suggest to use gconf-editor, then i emrege it,
and run it in terminal, it just complained:
| Code: | ** (gconf-editor:11754): WARNING **: Can't load fallback CSS resource: Failed to import: The resource at '/org/gnome/adwaita/gtk-fallback.css' does not exist
** (gconf-editor:11754): WARNING **: Can't load fallback CSS resource: Failed to import: The resource at '/org/gnome/adwaita/gtk-fallback.css' does not exist |
and, i cannot do any config with it!
so, the problem is, how to set proxy for chrome, under MATE desktop?
could any one please give me a hand? thanks!

| See `man google-chrome` for information on setting the Proxy server that Google Chrome uses. |

Hmm... how to say? i know in terminal, just run google-chrome-stable --proxy-server="host:port" then chrome works well,
but it's unintuitive (i mean, invisible) and troublesome. is there a elegant solution (i mean, visible and easy)?
maybe, just create a shortcut in desktop, and set command: /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable %U --proxy-server="host:port"???
if chrome can pick global proxy settings, or the settings made by MATE desktop, then all is fine... |

| Yes, setting it in a shortcut or desktop file will work; it can't pick up those from MATE, it's not written to behave that way. Because of that it has its own proxy parameters system. |
