Well, I'm trying to access the web from behind a corporate firewall usinge Qemu & the Sugar web browser. I need to be able to configure the proxy server for the sugar web browser, if that's feasible.... :) The current wiki's don't call out exactly which activity maps to the web browser, nor how to find an activity on the redhat file structure... :P I know that this isn't a typical problem, nor one most children would face, but the basic idea of providing insight into the implementation of all activities is a nice idea. --JCF
