AFAIK there's a problem with vidalia and debian, because vidalia can't
connect to the tor-process which starts during system-startup in debian
as user debian-tor.
The tor-maintainers are working on this issue, which is assigned as
one project to this years google's summer of code - so hopefully there
will be a vidalia-package for debian in the near future.
I don't know, why there's a tork-package for debian - because it has
this same important issue.
If you have specific questions about this, you can e.g. ask at the
tor-mailinglist at or-talk@freehaven.net since this is not
amd64-specific.
