Some people believe that there is danger in trying to modify '/etc/tor/torrc', therefore, it is unacceptable to add ControlPort to torrc. In this circumstances, the Vidalia can't start its own Tor process unless user has stopped the existing Tor process. What I do currently is asking and helping the user by debconf during the installation period if they want to stop their running Tor. But, the Tor will run in the background as a deamon after restarting the computer, the Vidalia will still failed to start its own Tor process. I like to know is there other way to make vidalia work nicely except wait for the ControlSocket function to be supported. -- Vern 2008-06-05
