A few things,  you probably haven't received a response because no one
has a good idea how to fix it.  You may have 2 issues, one is that
libevent can't find nameservers, and the other is that the config
options are broken.

As for the dns issues:

or

Are you running Windows?

For the config issues, which may be related to the dns issues, do you
have a copy of the torrc that's generated by Vidalia?
