Please also install the package libproxy-tools and provide the output of _PX_DEBUG=1 proxy http://www.google.com

This will query libproxy to reply which configuration gnome is replying back.

OK. So here is the output you wanted:- ---------------- Using config: 22gnome_config_extension Using ignore: localhost,127.0.0.1 Config is: http://192.168.3.20:3100 http://192.168.3.20:3100 ---------------- So I guess Gnome is returning the correct proxy, which is also why the weather and temperature in the clock applet show up as soon as I set the proxy in YaST and re-login, right? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Atri, can you please install the packages from: http://www.rosenauer.org/mozilla/ to your 11.3/Factory system and run Firefox from a terminal. You should get proxy related output when you use Firefox afterwards. Please paste it here.

OK. I installed the packages from the above link. There were dependency problems due to the version numbering, but I forced the installation without any adverse effects. So now when I run firefox from the terminal there is no proxy related output at all if I have the option "Use system proxy"; only output I get is this ------------- *** nss-shared-helper: Shared database disabled (set NSS_USE_SHARED_DB to enable). ------------- If I manually set the proxy then firefox is able to browse websites and the proxy output is as follows:- ------------- returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 returned PAC proxy string: proxy 192.168.3.20:3100 ------------- -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The point is though that libproxy tool returns the correct proxy and that the weather and temperature are picked up correctly from the proxy address set using YaST. Anyways, as for the result of what you asked for:- about:config -> network.proxy.type status - default type - integer value - 5 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
