How to install tor in ubuntu 10.10?

Here are the steps.

1) dowload the tor from http://www.torproject.org/
    However, many people who need tor cannot access this site.
    As a result, we can try it in other ways.
    a) download from other mirror sites. (I attach the mirrors in the end)
    b) download from google code (http://code.google.com/p/prision-break/downloads/list)

2) install tor
    after download the tar file of tor.
    a) extract it
    b) go to the directory of the tor
    c) ./configure
    d) make
    e) make install
3) install vidalia 
     sudo apt-get install vidalia
4)  run vidalia
     Applications -> Internet ->  vidalia
5) set  vidalia
    a) configure the tor path to /usr/local/bin/tor
        (After to start vidalia) click Setting ->  General, check the "Start the Tor software when vidalia starts", and set the path to /usr/local/bin/tor
    b) add many bridges as possible
        Setting -> Network -> check the "My ISP blocks connections to the Tor nectwork"
        Add bridges.
6) how to get new bridges
      Send email to
bridges@torproject.org with Subject "get bridges"

Tip: After you added three bridges to vidalia, maybe you still cannot connect to the tor network. You need to find more bridges. You can ask them from your friends or send email on the other day.
 
 
7) Add tor button for firefox
     start the firefox,  click Tool -> Add-ons -> Get Add-ons, Search torbutton
    install it and restart the firefox

8) enable the Torbutton on the rightdown corner of the firefox
    now, you can surf the Internet without limitation now.
