Hi Ben and Tor Talkers,
i found some old entries and this in particular:
- the comment from "Ben" at 2nd answer
https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/1065/what-happened-to-torrc-in-tor-browser-bundle
"Indeed and the best way to override these settings is to compile/install tor separately and then change the browser proxy setting to use that default SOCKS5 port of 9050 instead of the TBB one of 9150, then change the default/home page from about:tor to https://check.torproject.org/ because the about page only checks that the default config is active and not that you know what you're doing really and they can get out of the way.

- a blog entry
http://uscyberlabs.com/blog/2012/09/17/tor-setup-torrc-file-configuration/
this could be also useful if you want to try another way:
https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/8823/how-to-set-my-exit-node-from-within-tails-by-using-the-command-line
and a glimpse in the manual:
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual-dev.html.en
"FILES
@CONFDIR@/torrc
The configuration file, which contains "option value" pairs.
$HOME/.torrc
Fallback location for torrc, if @CONFDIR@/torrc is not found.
"
best success
