All right.
I have set up:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 34 Oct 29 17:45 95mine_xprofile
in /etc/X11/Xsession.d which contains:
test ~/.xprofile && . ~/.xprofile
In ~/ I have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 david david 42 Oct 29 18:06 .xprofile
which contains:
HTTP_PROXY="proxy.sydney.apana.org.au:8080"
which I take to be in accord with your suggestion in the quoted post in the
archives.
Upon restarting X and logging into KDE and running env I find it has had no
effect.
What is wrong here, please?
