Annoying loop situation

Hi,

My system is openSUSE 11.1 and I'm using Firefox 3.0.13

I have both privoxy and torbutton installed. When I setup Firefox's proxy 
settings to use http and ssl through 127.0.0.1 port 8118 and SOCKS host 
127.0.0.1 port 9050, torbutton enables itself. If I then disable torbutton 
(I'm only really interested in running a tor relay) the Firefox settings 
revert to 'No proxy'.

I'd like to run privoxy for all my browsing, whether I'm using tor client mode 
or not, and also run a tor relay. I'm sure this was working before a recent 
kernel upgrade and reboot.

Any suggestions, please? Do you need to see any part of my config files?
