It works for me with setting only http-proxy in gnome's proxy setting.
Firefox will use it.
It works for both: firefox 3 and 3.5
Firefox 3.0.11+build2+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1
Firefox 3.5+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1
So it seems this affects only SOCKS proxy, as the bug report descriptions
itself
I just tried this with HTTP by installing Privoxy and it doesn't work with that
either.
Privoxy is set to use forward-socks5 and again, Firefox works when told to use
it directly.
** Summary changed:
- Firefox doesnt use gnome's socks proxy
