My advice is to start over with Tor, and not use the rpms that come with opensuse repositories. You could stop/kill tor, uninstall the tor rpm you have now and remove /etc/tor/. Download the opensuse rpm from https://www.torproject.org/download-unix. Install, and then "sudo /etc/init.d/tor start" and everything should work by default with Tor. If you have torbutton in firefox, click it to "Tor Enabled". Privoxy should already be running and then you can test check.torproject.org to see if you're using tor successfully. -- Andrew Lewman The Tor Project pgp 0x31B0974B Website: https://torproject.org/ Blog: https://blog.torproject.org/ Identica/Twitter: torproject
