andybons | ad92aa3 | 2015-08-31 02:27:44 | [diff] [blame] | 3 | Chromium on Linux has several possible sources of proxy info: GNOME/KDE |
| 4 | settings, command-line flags, and environment variables. |

| 8 | When Chromium detects that it is running in GNOME or KDE, it will automatically |
| 9 | use the appropriate standard proxy settings. You can configure these proxy |
| 10 | settings from the options dialog (the "Change proxy settings" button in the |
| 11 | "Under the Hood" tab), which will launch the GNOME or KDE proxy settings |
| 12 | applications, or by launching those applications directly. |

| 16 | For other desktop environments, Chromium's proxy settings can be configured |
| 17 | using command-line flags or environment variables. These are documented on the |
| 18 | man page (`man google-chrome` or `man chromium-browser`). |
