Eventually I will either upgrade this, or build a new box, or both; but with the prospect of moving on my mind, I don't want to accumulate yet more junk that must be moved. So if I can get this thing to work as 64-bit, without adding more to my burden, that would be best. By the way, this did start out as a strictly TDE-Trinity question: namely, Why does tork-trinity fail to start privoxy? I can't get privoxy to start, no matter what I've tried. (I've also been having some other security issues; but I get worn out trying to fight against these tendencies or problems that keep repeating themselves. Better to dig out the root cause.) Then Michael recommended that I try Whonix, and if I do that I might as well do it right with Qubes+Whonix, if possible, but that means I need a 64-bit machine. So I did not intend to make these threads so diffuse and meandering, just that one question led to another. Thanks for the recommendations, as well as helping to look under the hood.
