Tor can't connect to Hidden Services (.onion)
Hello, I've been trying to get Tor to work when connecting to Hidden services.
Tor can connect to normal (HTTP/HTTPS) sites perfectly fine, and "check.torproject.org" says that my tor is upto date and that I'm using Tor, but I can't connect to .onion sites.

I am running Backtrack5R3, "tor-browser-gnu-linux-i686-2.3.25-12-dev-en-US" is the .tar.gz filename, latest version for GNU/linux. I haven't created another account for normal usage (non-root), so I've just commented out the anti-root part in the "start-tor-browser"
