There is a little more to it then getting tor from the repo. I have it working with Firefox 4.

There is a couple of other things you will need. Canā€™t remember right off. Read the how to on the tor site. That help me get it going, That and a lot of luck.

If you have problems , I will try to walk back throw it.

download libevent souce code download tor source code unpack both to different directorys ./configure make make install libevent first then assuming libevent compiled ok it should be in /usr/local now for tor ./configure --with-libevent-dir=/usr/local make make install tor should be ready but make sure you have gcc and a proper devel setup first kernel source and friends it will work on opensuse 11.4 because i have done it from derram i hope it works for you

Basically, the compilation tutorial can be found in the TOR Wiki on Tor Project: Anonymity Online.

If you install it from a repo look for version 0.2.2.34 (the current one).

For use the web-proxy ā€˜polipoā€™ is recommended, with a sample config file being availible in the TORproject wiki.
For use with firefox you can look at ā€œTORbuttonā€ or foxyproxy, the latter is not liked much by the TOR community, but I myself think itā€™s pretty comfortable, if youā€™re not overly paranoid.
Vidalia for configuration(GUI), or for the same purpose ARM (CLI).

And just as an aside: Try to configure your node as exit or relay, to make the TOR-network bigger :wink:
