How do I make kde4.8 use a socks5 proxy?

Hi all,
I'm trying to channel all my traffic through tor but KDE doesn't seem to recognize my proxy settings. To set up the proxy, I went to System Settings -> Network Settings -> Proxy -> Use manually specified proxy configuration and set the value of SOCKS proxy to socks://localhost, PORT to 9050. When I start chromium like so "chromium --proxy-server="socks://localhost:9050"" and visit https://check.torproject.org/ I can see that tor is running, but with the settings above it doesn't work.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Thanks, I ended up using proxychains because I think it's newer than tsocks. I can now start programs as "proxychains firefox" and tor seems to be working well. I have yet to figure out how to automate this process.

  • How do you make PP CS5 use more allocated physical memory???

    As you know, you can go to Preferences > Memory and change the amount of RAM reserved for other applications.
    Now, I have 8 GB of RAM installed (Windows 7), and I have set my “RAM reserved for other applications” option to 1.5 GB. That leaves 6.5 GB of memory for Adobe AE, Pr, Encore and Media Encoder.
    Here’s the problem: every time when I’m rendering or exporting in Premiere, I can see through Task Manager that Premiere uses only 1.5 or 2.0 GB of the physical memory, not the 6.5 GB that I’ve allocated. I know the rest is reserved for other applications, but none of them are running at the moment. So, how can I make PP CS5 use more of all the physical memory that’s left?

    Memory management in CS5 is clever enough to use an amount of memory that minimizes the use of the page file and maximizes buffers, However that depends on the material in the project, the effects and transitions used, the export format and the hardware in use.
    There is no sense in using large amounts of memory, when other components cause waiting before the contents of memory can be offloaded. Just as it makes no sense to use a Ferrari in traffic jams.

  • How do I make a purchase using my Itunes account?

    How do I make a purchase using my Itunes account?
    Help any body.

    What happens when you click on the price button, what prompts/messages appear ? If you have a balance on your account then that will automatically be used for the purchase, you can't specify how items are charged.
    If when clicking on the price button you are being prompted to review and log into the account then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method  - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If that is what is happening then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then try entering your card's details, it shouldn't be charged (apart from a temporary store holding charge which your card issuer should remove within a few days or so), and you should be able to remove the card after entering it.

  • How do I configure the firefox plugin-cointainer.exe to use a socks5 proxy?

    I need to use a socks5 proxy to connect to the internet. I have it configured properly in FireFox but when I use a plugin that loads a Flash app it bypasses the proxy and tries to make a direct connection and fails.

    Hi,
    Please note that though Firefox and its plugin-container.exe fully respects the set proxy settings, all plugins may not do that. Please see [http://decloak.net/ this] (5 of 8).

  • How to use a Socks5 Proxy with authentification only on specified sites? Any Addons?

    Hey, I want to use a Socks5 proxy that requires authentification but only on specified sites.
    Unfortunately, Foxyproxy does not support such proxies.
    Is there an addon or some hidden Firefox feature that allows this?

    Thanks for the suggestion but I'm looking for a convenient way to avoid blocked content on YouTube and co. I figured this would be superior to all those unblocker extensions since I have access to a fast proxy anyway.

    Hi there,
       I wanted to make images dynamic in that the images would be stored in my database and then use dreamweaver to pull the images from the database using a recordset. But how do I get to store the images in MySql now that dreamweaver doesn't support BLOB and also how do I make dreamweaver pull the images from that database? PLZ somebody help

    To pull the image from Database on to your page
    1. Open your php page
    2. put your cursor where you want the image to show on the page
    3. insert>image>Select File Name From: Data Sources>select record from recordset> click ok
    4. View in browser
    In Mysyl the image was stored as a "longblob" type with "binary" attributes
    but my system is Dreamweaver CS3.
    Hope this helps. Let me know.

  • How do I make a call using Skype ver 6.22.60.107?

    I've used Skype for years, but this update that I just got a few minutes ago has me stumped. How do I make phone calls with this thing? The option to make calls is greyed out. I can call my contacts, but I don't see a way to dial numbers.
    Note: I'm using the latest version of Skype for Windows on my Windows 7 Pro desktop computer.
    Edit: I figured it out. I couldn't see the cursor, because the text box is the same color as the banner around it.

  • How I should make it to use memory efficient?

    Hello All
    I have the following problem:
    Thse structure is like this:
    Array1(cluster1)
    Clusetr1: numeric1, Array2, Array3
    Array2(cluster2)
    cluster2:numeric2, array3(two vectors)
    Array3(cluster3)
    cluster3two vectors)
    As you can see it is a meassy stuff, and also the memory utilisation and efficiency is very poor. It is enough that I add some of the elements in one of the vector in array3 and all the structure must be copied to another place in memory.
    I was thinking of having something like:
    Array1(references to Cluster1)
    CLuster1: numeric1, Array2(references to cluster2), Array3(references to cluster3)
    Than
    addying a new elementwill cause only addying another reference in the given array.
    I am not sure if I make it clear, but if not, where I can read about the tips of managing the complicated structures including the arrays of clusters of arrays, etc.
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry I didn't go into more detail, but I wasn't sure this would help.
    The technique I mentioned has to do with building parallel arrays to
    hold different elements of a struct, or building a parallel array that
    gives you quicker searches of a complex datatype. For example, if you
    have an array of personel info with names, ages, social security
    numbers, etc. You sometimes want to find someone by name, sometimes by
    social, and perhaps the array is originally given to you in age sorted
    order.
    This would mean that everytime you try to find someone by name, you
    can't use a binary search or even stop when you pass the name and know
    they aren't in the array. You have to look at every element. The
    technique would be to build two parallel lookup arrays. The string
    sorted array would simply be an array of the integers 0 through N-1,
    ordered so that the first element contains the index of the first
    element by string. The second element contains the index of the second,
    and so on. So now you have essentially pointers from the index array to
    the storage array. You build another to keep order by social, and as
    many others as you like. These of course have to be updated when a new
    record is added, so there is a cost, but for database types of access to
    a largly static data set, this can help a lot on efficiency.
    The other point where this helps is when there is lots of redundancy in
    the info stored in the main array. As an example, lets say you are
    storing cartesian points to describe 3D shapes. One way would simply be
    to have arrays of faces, each face having an array of 3D vertices. This
    works, but you aren't taking advantage of the fact that each vertex is
    typically shared by three or more faces. In our structure it is
    duplicated again and again, and actually makes it difficult to reshape a
    3D shape.
    A better structure, using the index technique is to build an array of
    faces, each face has an array of vertex indices. The shape also has an
    array of vertices, in no particular order, but the face vertices can now
    "point" to any vertex and the faces now share it.
    To test it, put a cube in the structures. The cube has six faces and
    only eight points. In the first structure, there are six face arrays,
    each with four 3D points for a total of 24 3D coords. The second has
    six faces, each with four integer indices and the shape has a second
    array of eight coordinates. It doesn't duplicate information making it
    easier to update, it uses less storage, and it is quicker to access for
    many operations.

    When an array grows, that array may need to be moved in memory, since
    arrays are stored in contiguous memory. If it is an array of one
    million I8s, and you add one more byte, the 1M elements may need to move
    so that the additional element can be stored with them. By contrast, an
    array of 1,000 arrays of I8s, stores the same info. When adding a new
    element, to one of the 1000 element arrays, the other 999,000 elements
    do not need to move. Adding a new array to the 1000 already there means
    that the array of 1000 array references may move, but none of the I8
    elements will be moved.
    If you want more help, please describe more about what is in the array,
    to see if there is redundant storage that the first technique may help
    with, and describe how you will access it. Will you do more inserts,
    more deletes, or more accesses? These are the things that affect the
    efficiency of various data structures.

  • How do i make selections without using the mouse?

    for example, when I go to quit Photoshop, there is a box that comes up that asks whether I want to save changes to a file before I quit. Below are three buttons; "Don't Save", "Cancel", and "Save". The "Save" button is a dark blue, and if I simply hit the return key, I've made my selection as "Save". I know that if I hit the "Command" key and the period at the same time, I've made my selection as "Cancel".
    What I can't figure out is how to make the selection for "Don't Save" only using the keyboard?
    Thanks!

    command d clicks the "Don't save" button from the keyboard without having to select it first in almost any application.
