Hello abdoamcig, I am using vidalia (GUI) with tor/polipo and all are working just fine. So you can just add tor repository and install tor polipo vidalia and you're done.

deb     http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org karmic main

Then add the gpg key used to sign the packages by running the followingcommands at your command prompt:

gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -

Now refresh your sources and install Tor by running the followingcommands at your command prompt:

apt-get updateapt-get install tor tor-geoipdb vidalia 

you can also check this link for more details. enjoy surfing anonymously :) http://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en

remember to remove tor from autostart when the system starts.

Salam 'Alaykum Yasir,

I tried your suggestion, using the instruction on the tor page you linked to as well. But when I tried downloading the key, I got the following result:

the command was -- $ gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89

the result was: gpg: requesting key 886DDD89 from hkp server keys.gnupg.net gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect to host gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: Total number processed: 0

Can I find it elsewhere? Thanks for your help.
