I've been trying to install Tor in a test computer running SUSE LINUX

issues and package conflicts :-(
Being unable to use Tor, amongst other reasons I am working on, is
what is keeping me from my pledge to self-teach & familiarise myself
with Linux before Windows Vista becomes more common (I *really* don't
want to use Vista with all its DRM, bloat, Big Brother features and
revocation mechanism).
I also tried "rpm -e glibc" but too many packages rely on it to
remove.
Any advice please?
First, don't remove glibc; you'll regret that move for quite a while.
Are you trying to install a pre-built tor binary package? If so, try
compiling from source. The tor source tarball contains a spec file for
building a binary rpm from the source code; this will allow you to use
the openssl, glibc, &etc libraries already present on your machine
instead of insisting on specific versions of those libraries which you
apparently don't have.
