View 1 Replies View RelatedEverytime I use Transmission for torrent download, even if I only have a single torrent, my firefox is unable to access the internet. I assume this cannot be a bandwidth problem, so what is it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have quite fast Internet connection, 100mbit, and I'm able to take advantage of the entire bandwidth that I'm paying for. When I, however, use Transmission as torrent client and download a torrent faster than, 7-8 Mbyte/second, my hard drive is spinning all the time and my desktop becomes sporadically unresponsive, load average gets high and I'm pretty much sure the Transmission-application is the cause to this, somehow. It must be some strange way it cashes stuff...I don't know.
I'm, either way, not experiencing anything like that with any other torrent client in Linux (or Windows for that matter). It's not that I'm tied to Transmission, in fact, I prefer rtorrent and use it anytime I can, it's just that some stupid torrent sites are giving me Transmission as the only client option when I'm using Linux, so I have to stick to it those times. I have quite fast system, Core Duo 3ghz, 4gb ram, 500 gb 7200rpm 16MB cache WD hard drive, etc...so the hardware certainly shouldn't be a problem.
I have been using u torrent in windows and I am not able to find a similar torrent client in ubuntu 10.10, I was using transmission bittorrent client, but it is not able to look for peers and seeds as utorrent does and even the download speed is very slow when compared to utorrent. Which is the best torrent client as powerful as utorrent?

View 2 Replies View RelatedOne of the updates (Karmic) this morning listed the following:
Update
transmission-common
lightweight BitTorrent client (common files)
Description
Transmission is a simple BitTorrent client. It features a very simple, intuitive interface (gui and command-line) on top on an efficient, cross-platform back-end. This package contains the common files for the different transmission versions.
Changes
Changes for the versions:
1.75-0ubuntu2
1.75-0ubuntu2.2
Version 1.75-0ubuntu2.2:
* SECURITY UPDATE: fix arbitrary file overwrite via crafted torrent file
- debian/patches/CVE-2010-0012.patch: adjust metainfo.c to check for '../'
- CVE-2010-0012
So, I employed the update. Problem is, I do not see this as an installed application. TRANSMISSION is not listed in any submenu under the Applications menu OR Add/Remove.
How to make a private torrent on Transmission? Back when I was on windows I used to do it on utorrent. I remember that you had to put [URL] for the announce url. I figured it would be the same thing on Transmission, but it's not working. Did I skip something, or do something wrong? Or is there a whole different way to do it on Transmission? It's been a while since I've done this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIf you start a transmission then shutdown unintentionally, what happens to transmission? This hasn't happened recently, but the question sticks in my mind. I was downloading 2 files. I opened raw package which, at the time I didn't have BT or FDM or any other type of transmission at that point I shutdown system. I'm assuming it picked up after restarting computer. Anyway what I really want to know is if I only shutdown os and not the transmission, when does it actually stop?
View 3 Replies View Relatedi would really like to install Natty from scratch (i always prefer clean installs than upgrade) , but i am seeding 1500 torrents in transmission most of them sorted in directories, and manually adding them again is a big big pain.and will take alot of time.is there a way i can keep the config file or whatever so i dont have to manually add them all? so that i just add it in the new transmission folder and all torrents appear.i assume one way is to keep the /home folder?? but then what if i want a complete clean new install and this is the only thing i want to keep from the old installation?

View 8 Replies View RelatedUbuntu's bittorrent client, Transmission, failed with the error message "Couldn't add duplicate torrent". Since this was a similar torrent to one which I had abandoned earlier I thought there might be a caching problem or some silly bug in transmission. Not knowing where Transmission stores its data I tried a quick x by completely un-installing, including configuration files, from Synaptic, and then re-installing. This did not work and the same error message appeared when trying to download the same torrent.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI cannot use any torrent programs because nothing will download. Every figure will sit at '0' indefinitely...forever! I can boot up my Windows XP install and it will start within a few seconds. I am just trying to figure out what's going on. Another problem is that my LXDE desktop doesn't seem to pick up every application I install. It doesn't go in the menu. I tried Torrent but it didn't go in the menu. I would start it via CLI but I'm not sure what to type. I thought there might be a security issue but that's only speculation.
I know that ports are supposed to be set via the router settings but I'm sharing the router. I might go to a relative's home and try to work on the problem there. I can go in the router there. But, I can have nothing set and just start downloading with default settings in Windows so I thought it can't be a ports problem. Unless? I'm at a loss and have no other theories. Debian and other distros want you to download their OS via torrent so to not even have it work.
I Have try using yact but it find nonone software for torrent.
View 7 Replies View RelatedJust went to download 8.04.4 and to use the torrent. Guess what, the links on the page point to 8.04.3 torrent download which gets you a 404 error. To get by this, go into the address window of your browser and change each 8.04.3 to 8.04.4 and you will get the torrent.
Just thought I would pass this on if anyone was trying to get it via the torrent. If anyone is watching, maybe the links should be updated on the download pages.
I am interested in downloading ubuntu 10.04 on a cd for a friend. I want to use a torrent to get the file so I can seed after the download. When I go to the alternate download page located here: http:[url]....It gives me multiple options on which torrent to download:
ubuntu-10.04-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent
ubuntu-10.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent
ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
ubuntu-10.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent
ubuntu-10.04-server-i386.iso.torrent
I am confused as to which I should download.I know that amd64 is for the amd architecture and i386 is for intel, but what is the difference between alternate and desktop?
I have tried several times to download an audio torrent using bit tornado.It connects to the torrent provider, but times out with the error "url error" "unknown url type" "udp" [URL]. I have also tried with other providers and the result is the same, apart from the tracker name.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso loaded in Transmission, which starts every time I boot up. Today, I booted up and got these weird error messages from Transmission with the ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso file. The message is: Tracker gave an error "Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker." - Idle.
I thought that maybe something was wrong with Transmission, so I paused the torrent and then removed it. I then reloaded it and pointed Transmission at the download directory. Transmission verified the downloaded data and then spat out the same error message at me - "Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker."
I then removed the torrent from Transmission, exited from Transmission cleanly, restarted Transmission, reloaded the torrent file, pointed it at the current download location, it verified the file was completely downloaded, and then got the same error message. I have a firewall running, and it has ports 51413 and ports 6881-6999 open for both TCP and UDP connections. These are the same settings that I had yesterday, and there was no error message spat out by Transmission yesterday.
I want to make transmission download faster. I have noticed transmission is a slow bittorrent.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI couldn't find an answer myself. So, the problem is that every single bittorrent program I tried downloads files I checked to ignore so I know this is not a program related issue. For example, there are 2 pictures in a torrent, I select only one but in the end I have both downloaded.
