Now that's annoying

Am in a country which is blocked by nokia

I get

so I tried to ping it from ubuntu terminal and it is unreachable

DAMN

I really need help on this... pls don't say use tor, since tor can't be applied system-wide... it works with the browser only

I have to mention I am using ubuntu 11.10

Thanks for your reply

Yes, it works with N900, but I am trying to install the SDK on my ubuntu 11.10 and as far as I know it can't be applied there system-wide. I was possible on earlier versions, but not on 11.10.

If I access the internet with my ubuntu through qt-mobile-hotspot on N900 while tor is applied system-wide on it, will that have an affect on ubuntu?

Maemo 5 SDK? Can you get the preinstalled VM image instead, or is that blocked too?

Do you live in a country that is a sworn enemy of Finland?

I live in the Sudan... Politics, we people suffer from...

while setup is performed you have to enter nokias-binaries repository, which is refusing connection from where I am so to install these files: scratchbox-core scratchbox-libs scratchbox-devkit-qemu scratchbox-devkit-debian scratchbox-devkit-doctools scratchbox-devkit-perl scratchbox-toolchain-host-gcc scratchbox-toolchain-cs2007q3-glibc2.5-arm7 scratchbox-toolchain-cs2007q3-glibc2.5-i486 scratchbox-devkit-svn scratchbox-devkit-git scratchbox-devkit-apt-https

the onion router would solve any trouble

Re: can't install maemo 5 sdk cause in blocked country
 

onion-router on ubuntu is not applied system-wide, right?

I just tried following:

I installed Qt Mobile Hotspot on N900, with the idea to get access to my wifi while onion-router is apllied system-wide...... then I access with my ubuntu the hotspot on N900.......

Didn't work... Qt Mobile Hotspot wants a gprs connection, and I want it to use my home wifi........

looking for a workaroud or other possibilities

Re: can't install maemo 5 sdk cause in blocked country
 

of course it won't work
cause N900 can handle it's connection to the router only
and won't create another interface for qtmobile hotspot

what you need is TOR to be working with whole ubuntu

here's how:

gnome:

Gnome System —>Preferences —> Network Proxy
*click on Manual proxy configuration
*use the same proxy for all protocols
enter http:
127.0.0.1
port 8118

------------
KDE:

KDE Computer —> System Settings —> Network Settings —> Proxy tab (On the Left panel)
*manually specified proxy
> setup
*apply all protocoles
http:
127.0.0.1
port 8118

still need to set your browser to use TOR

Re: can't install maemo 5 sdk cause in blocked country
 

Karam... I am definetly doing something wrong... help me out here please

the browser only works through socks with proxy 127.0.0.1 port 9050
if I change the value to 127.0.0.1 and 9050 and apply that on all protocols I get the answer Tor is not an HTTP Proxy...

Same applies to system settings in gnome, as soon as I apply what you mentioned and try apt-get update in terminal I get the answer: Tor is not an HTTP Proxy...

What am I doing wrong? How should the settings in Tor be configured?

Sorry Karam and thanks for your help...
