 As mentioned on the blog:

 The following is something I observed. Linux Tor bundle works, apart from
 a notice when starting, on PCLinuxOS 2010.07 openbox (live CD), Mandriva
 2010.0 (HD installed) and Parsix 3.6r0(Live and Install). It returns an
 error when started from Kubuntu 10.04(live CD) that uses KDE 3.5.11.

 This could be related to the KDE because this KDE version is a
 continuation of KDE 3.5.10, in a project known as Trinity desktop. I have
 heard that there was a memory leak in X on Ubuntu 10.04, I am not sure if
 this was in a release or beta of Ubuntu.

 The following is shown
  ------------
  No protocol specified
