Please read the book:

You did not specify your version and platform so I can't say whether it is available for your machine.

I use Core plus in a vm (for test). Is it ok ?
I'll read this book tonight :)

Show the output of:
version
and
uname -a

Doesn't "tce-load -iw tor" work?

The tor extension does not create a menu item or icon, but you can run it from a terminal window.

There are also some hints on use in /usr/local/etc/tor/tor-tips.txt

Post by: Juanito on July 02, 2017, 04:09:58 PM: If you look at the various links in tor-tips.txt, the tor people recommend using the tor browser bundle

Post by: TheMrJihell on July 02, 2017, 06:36:59 PM: Yep i looked it's difficult for a beginner than me. i saw a script on this forum forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=11352.0
Does it works ? How run it?
Sorry for all :/

Post by: Juanito on July 03, 2017, 06:22:35 AM: I've never tried the script, but I just downloaded the pre-built tor browser bundle from the tor web site and it works - google comes up in the Ukraine...

I used tor-browser-linux64-7.0.1_en-US.tar.xz

Unpack the tarball somewhere and then:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -i tor zenity glibc_apps dbus-glib gtk2 bash $ cd tor-browser_en-US/Browser $ ./start-tor-browser
Note that, since this uses a modified version of firefox, a symlink /lib64 -> /lib is required for corepure64.

Note also that the tor-browser-bundle cannot access tinycorelinux.net, it gives a 403 error :)
