tor browser install Ubuntu 14.04 [duplicate]

I have read the answers to other questions regarding the install/running of the tor browser. I have tried the answers given but still cannot get the tor browser to run on mine. I have Ubuntu 14.04 and where it shows to start tor browser when I double click all I get is an open tab full of code. Anyone with suggestions I should try? I also tried downloading from tor project did not work and tried the install using command in the terminal and it also did not work. When I had windows, I had no problem with the install or the tor browser running. I really like Ubuntu better; this is the only thing that I am having trouble with. PLEASE HELP!!!



Install from Terminal:

Note: If you installed older version of Tor-Browser, in first you must clear the old .tor-browser-en folder from home folder. Just clear that by using: cd ~ && rm -r .tor-browser-en

Then type following line one by one in Terminal ( Ctrl+Alt+T ) to install Tor-Browser.

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/tor-browser
 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install tor-browser

Now open dash and type "Tor", click on and use.


Alright, I'll lead you step by step on how to run the Tor browser


  1. Download the latest tor tarball from here
  2. open a terminal window and navigate to the directory you downloaded it to
  3. run this command: tar -xvf <NAME_OF_TARBALL>
  4. use cd to go into the created directory
  5. use this command to give the start script permission to run: chmod +x start_tor_browser.sh
  6. run the start script with ./start_tor_browser.sh

That should work, let me know if it doesn't and I'll look into it more
