Public bug reported: If I choose a system proxy in ubuntu settings and choose also "system proxy" in firefox network connection, it doesn't work, while with previous firefox versions (previous to 11.0) it worked perfectly.
I can handle the problem by changing the proxy in firefox preferences. This problem doesn't happen with other browsers I use, such as chromiun, neither with ubuntu software center, etc. I hope you could find a solution, I love firefox and this is a bit annoying. Regards.
