Network proxy issues - Tathrim - 12-02-2011

I'm in Mint 12, and have just installed the most recent .deb packages from getdeb.

I am living in a halls of residence at Lancaster Uni that requires the use of a proxy server to access the Internet. I was recommended by a friend also having an issue to try launching from the terminal (to take advantage of apt's proxy settings).

However, the keyboard doesn't respond to keyboard input when the application is launched from the terminal, and the proxy download on the server does not work either, so I'm back to square 1.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Tathrim

what kind of proxy server is it?

HTTP based, over port 8080 for most traffic, set by an automatic configuration URL. The issue isn't connecting to the server for multiplayer the issue is the download for custom maps from the servers, possibly because the ports are wrong.

The downloads use libcurl, and that should honor either http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY.
