Add Proxy Exception In Ubuntu 12.04

Roshan Karki Unknown
Ubuntu 12.04 comes with shiny graphical tool to setup system wide global proxy. But as seen in the picture below there is no way to add exception or ignored host.


To overcome this limitation we have to install dconf Editor. You can install by clicking the previous link or by typing sudo apt-get install dconf-tools in terminal. Please note that though the software is call dconf editor its packaged as dconf-tools.

Once installed open dconf editor and navigate to system -> proxy. From here you can add ignore-hosts as string and as seen in the picture below.

You may need to log out and log in for the changes to take effect.

    Was very useful. Thanks! This "feature" of adding a [proxy bypass] has been now moved to "wishlist" section by Ubuntu :)

Increase Free Space On HTC Desire Android Phones

Roshan Karki Anonymous
Are you running out of free space on phones like HTC Desire and variants? It only has about 150MB of free space and after official Gingerbread 2.3.3 update the free space has decreased. Its really frustrating seeing all those apps with 20MB+ size eating up valuable space on Android phones. Even with App2SD I had very very difficult time maintaining free space. Installing apps like Facebook, Google Plus, Google Reader would eat up all the space. Today I used link2sd to increase free space on my Android phone and now I've more than 1GB of free space for installing apps. I've been installed so so many apps now. link2sd can move your application apk, dex and lib files to second partition of your SD card and creates a symlink where necessary.
