I'm having trouble getting Tor working on my computer. I'm a Ubuntu 10.04 user. I've been following the these installation instructions. I started both services (sudo /etc/init.d/tor start, and sudo /etc/init.d/polipo start) and was able to verify that the Tor services is running on port 9050. I then installed Vidalia and Torbutton for Firefox.

However, when I try to enable Torbutton, I get a message saying

Torbutton: Please file bug report! Error applying Tor settings: [Exception...
"Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)
