General :: Get Vidalia / TOR To Work On Ubuntu System?
Jul 9, 2011
I've downloaded Vidalia, but instead of No Configuration, I chose One-Time Restart, and now whenever I try to open TOR, it says that it is already running. I've rebooted already, but that didn't help at all. I would like to start using TOR as an experiment and to remain anonymous. Sure, there's HideMyAss! add-on for Google Chrome, but I just want to try it all out. Can someone help me?
This is what it says
"Vidalia detected that the Tor software exited unexpectedly.
Please check the message log for recent warning or error messages." code...

I recently installed ubuntu 11.04(64-bit) and have been using it for a little less than a week now(absolutely love it). I've been trying to install all the basic programs I need, and up until now, with no problem.
I've had trouble getting vidalia to work properly. Whenever I start vidalia, both the tor and vidalia processes show up. The GUI for vidalia does not. A temporary solution I found was to login as root and run it like that, but I take it that isn't the greatest idea.
I've reinstalled multiple times, both from source, building deb packages, and the tor repository.

I just finished installing and configuring 'TOR' to work in conjunction with 'Polipo' and then I realized I forgot to install it Vidalia. Am I still able to install vidalia so I am able to access the GUI to get a visual on what is going on? Or will it interfere with the TOR/Polipo team?

I want to use Vidalia to manage a TOR relay. My /etc/default/tor file references another file /etc/default/tor.vidalia. It's supposed to help manage the TOR daemon. For whatever reason, I don't have a file called /etc/default/tor.vidalia.

I just installed TOR but get an error that it has ended unexpectedly when I open Vidalia. The log has the following:

I just recently installed Tor again on my new Natty install along with Vidalia. It was working initially, but for some reason it has ceased to function within the last 24 hours. When I start Tor (either from the command-line or Vidalia) and go to check.torproject.org, it says that Tor isn't running. (I don't use Torbutton with Firefox, if that makes any difference. I use FoxyProxy, but the settings look fine to me. It was working only yesterday.) I've checked the config files for Polipo and Tor, and I've checked my Vidalia settings more times than I can count. It all looks perfectly satisfactory.
I'm sure that it's not my firewall, Tor/Polipo configurations, or Vidalia settings. When I launch Tor with Vidalia and check the logs, everything works just fine and it says I'm connected. The only thing I can think of is that it might be a FoxyProxy issue or a problem with check.torproject.org, but the settings for FoxyProxy look okay and check.torproject.org hasn't malfunctioned in the past.
I've purged and reinstalled Tor, Vidalia, and Polipo and restored their config files and settings to the defaults, but still to no avail. My current malfunctioning Tor configuration is identical to my old and functional one, so far as I can tell.

Everytime I shutdown/restart my computer without properly turning off the Tor network and get the following message from Vidalia:
"Vidalia detected that the Tor software exited unexpectedly"
The only way I can get Vidalia to work again is to reinstall Vidalia.

Vidalia control panel has no check box for "show this window on startup". Is there a way using linux commands to stop it from popping up or would I need to change something else?

I've been a Java developer for some time now and I always wind up removing a bunch of stuff from /etc/alternatives in favor of one of several freshly downloaded official Sun JDKs I've installed myself. I don't like circumventing things unnecessarily, though and I also don't like "re-inventing the wheel", either. If I had a better idea of how that system worked, perhaps it would not be required. I mean I usually write a script to switch between jdk's for different projects but perhaps I would not need a script if I knew how this worked

I have a 3 year old PC with 4 internal SATA ports. My old SATA hard drives, all smaller than 2TB, work fine. If I buy a 3TB SATA hard drive, will it work in Linux? Will Linux with GRUB be able boot from such a hard drive without a BIOS upgrade? With a BIOS upgrade? It's fine for me to upgrade my Linux to the newest kernel.

I tried hard so that I can stay away from version control but in almost good job specifications, I find version control as requirement. So I thought I had to start from somewhere. I always tried to read it but haven't got much luck with it. So I have few problems to ask. I am confused and I really want to know how can I use version control in my context and how will my working environment change with it.
I have Linux VPS Server. I use capnel/whm to create sites in php/joomla. So is version control a software or script which I can install on my linux box like ./configure. Or I have to install it on every site like any framework I use Dreamweaver to edit files via FTP. Now if I install version control then do I still use same method to edit files or then method gets chnaged What about the database like MySQL will it stays same or its also version controlled Will version control make my system slow and how much space it uses on my server.

I have a very simple php web application deployed on linux (centOS4) machine. It creates a file and stores the file in /tmp folder on my linux machine. The path for this file is specified in the href attribute of the link. Ideally when we click this link the download manager should pop up so that the file can be downloaded on client machine.
When i access this website remotely from my window xp machine on firefox it downloads the file properly but when i run on internet explorer (i have IE7 on my windows XP) and click the link, the download manager does'nt pop's up. even when i right-click that link and select save as, an error message pop's up saying "file path not found". possibly IE is not able to determine the linux file path .so how do i work around this. is there some specific way for specifying the linux file paths to be downloaded by IE?

I'm an old-school dinosaur, and I'd like to understand how drag and drop works on the X window system under Linux. Is it build into the X protocol? Is it a function of the window manager? Do applications have to be aware of drag and drop? Is it both the applications and the window manager?I'm looking for a general technical understanding. If I have specific questions about how to modify an app to support drag and drop, I'll ask them over on Stackoverflow.

I finally understand why I couldn't get Clonezilla to work on my system. But, I am more baffled than ever.
You see, my system has been in great working order for months. I am running 9.10 32-bit and I keep everything maintained on a daily basis. I just updated to kernel 2.6.32-19 and, like I say, everything is working pretty much perfectly. But, yesterday, I volunteered to help with some official Canonical Ubuntu testing. This morning, I got an email from them that they want me to do the work and giving me instructions on how to proceed. The first thing to do is free up some disk space in order to have a special partition on which to install their testing kernels.
So, I downloaded their suggested tool for doing this, gparted. And, when I ran gparted, the first thing I discovered is that my disk drive has absolutely nothing on it! No partitions, at all. It only sees an empty device, /dev/sda. This is exactly what Clonezilla told me a couple of months ago - no partitions could be located to be backed up.
However, I and Ubuntu think I do have partitions:
Code:
$ df -Th
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 ext3 19G 1.5G 16G 9% /
udev tmpfs 502M 360K 501M 1% /dev
none tmpfs 502M 204K 501M 1% /dev/shm
none tmpfs 502M 328K 501M 1% /var/run

I'm having a problem with my Ubuntu 10.10 system. After installing the OS it worked fine. But after one or two restarts it totally freezes i mean NO Ctrl+Alt+Bckspc , NO Ctrl+Alt+F1 and Ctrl+Alt+Del works for me. I have the same problem with Ubuntu 10.04 , 9.10 also. ( Only Ubuntu version 9.04 Works fine for me ). But i want to make use the latest one. code...
After Ubuntu fails some time it crush the GRUB loader, so that i can't boot windows either. Any buddy tell me why this happen to me?

I until now was using them on a 32 bit system.Ubuntu 10.04. Here I am switching the computer to 64 bit and want to build same environment how ever my confusion is above packages are approximately 430 Mb and are present in /var/cache/apt/archives on my 32 bit system.Can I transfer those to my 64 bit system and use or there is a difference in packages for 32 bit and 64 bit and I should be using a fresh install on the 64 bit system.

I have a Dell Inspiron 700m. I've been running Ubuntu since 2008. Every time I re-install the O.S. I have to alter the video driver. When 10.04 was released it crashed the system and I couldn't figure out how to fix it so I left Karmic on and all was well. Well the DVD/CD drive never worked right under Karmic but no big deal.
Anyway, last week I attempted an upgrade. Everything went fine until upgrade finished and it was time to reboot.
Reboot hung, so I ended up killing the power and doing a cold boot.
Now when booting from the hard drive, I get a brief flash of the Ubuntu welcome screen (in the wrong resolution) and then things die. I'm left looking at a grey curser in the upper left.
Worse yet, I can't boot from a live CD or USB. Neither, Ubuntu, openSUSE or Puppy Linux will boot from CD or from USB.
I double checked my boot order in the BIOS and still nothing boots. I reset the BIOS to factory Default, still nothing boots. I disabled the hard-drive in the boot up order in the bios and still nothing boots.
I can't figure out what happened and I can't access the machine at all exepet to enter the BIOS.

Ok, let me explained what I did. I was curious and decided to try out Gnome 3. Big mistake. I did a purge to get rid of it and now Unity comes back up. So far so good. Now none of my settings save... my "keep in launcher" apps do not stay there, my settings (accounts work fine) in Empathy don't stay and the weather settings reset. How do I get things to save when logging out or rebooting?
