Because there is a fatal bug in Ubunbu 10.10, network proxy would be invalid after the first update.
In that case, proxy should be configured by yourself.
1. edit /etc/bash.bashrc. Add to following lines at the end of file :
export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxy.doshisha.ac.jp:8080/
export ftp_proxy=http://username:password@proxy.doshisha.ac.jp:8080/
2. edit, or create new file /etc/apt/apt.conf :
Acquire::http::proxy "http://username:password@proxy.doshisha.ac.jp:8080/";
Acquire::ftp::proxy "ftp://username:password@proxy.doshisha.ac.jp:8080/";
Acquire::https::proxy "https://username:password@proxy.doshisha.ac.jp:8080/";
* To set up above configuration on text editor(gedit), type following command on terminal screen;
sudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.conf
