I too am facing the same problem.

I use an authenticated proxy server.

I first tried Ubuntu 12.10 from the Live USB and then eith Virtual Box. In both cases I was able to connect to my google Account from Gwibber.

Now I have done a clean install of 12.10, but now I am not able to connect at all.

Can you help with this problem?
