General :: Torrent Or Transmission Started But Uncompleted?
Dec 21, 2010
If 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?
Maybe some torrent client for Linux can understand the metadata generated by a Windows client. Or maybe there is a Web/Desktop client that works in both systems. Is there any way to do that?I use uTorrent for Windows, and I haven't used any torrent client on my Ubuntu 11.04 yet. But if the solution uses other client for Windows, it will work for me.
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 speed up torrent download with transmission in fedora, i find it very slow, also the speed is only 51 kbps not more than that i get, so how to increase the download speed to 128 kbps. i'm using broadband connection.
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.
i install ubuntu for 2nd time, i use transmission app to download a torrent for my computer, but in this time that program block, and don't let me download waht i want. the program stay grey and not responding.
i 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?
Everytime 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.
When I start downloading torrent via transmission, utorrent, deluge every time I get disconnected network which can be fixed with restarting DSL modem, I've never had the problem in Win7 an WinXP.
I 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.
Transmission has started giving me errors when I download a new torrent file. It has stopped being able to create the new file (ie touch) to begin the download. Error: Permission denied (/path/to/specific/file/in/new.torrent) Old torrents are still running to the same drive location. No permissions have changed.
Ubuntu'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.
I can only access the Transmission web interface while the Transmission-gtk client is running. When I close it, the web interface is no longer available. I try to manually start the transmission-daemon, but the process never shows up as running.
I use deluge and it worked for a while then randomly I got this error message when trying to download a .torrent file:"/tmp/Manchester_Orchestra___I_m_Like_A_Virgin_Losing_A_ ___-1.torrent could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred.Try saving to disk first and then opening the file."
I recently installed KDE in my ubuntu 10.10. To access KDE, I want to use startx /usr/bin/startkdeBut using it disables sound in KDE (Sound is working fine in GNOME). It doesn't sound for anything like login sound, totem, mplayer or any other playerBut when I press Alt+Ctrl+F1 to change to virtual console, the playback resumes from where it was in time and when coming back Alt+Ctrl+F7 and the time in totem (or any other player) doesn't move. While log out also it doesn't play logout sound and doesn't logout, so I have to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 so that logout sound play then it exits.When starting KDE by kdm or gdm, the sound works normally. But I don't want to login again using kdm or gdm and not to use root user to start kdm or gdm.I don't know what is the difference between when KDE is started by startx or by kdm/gdm where the same user login in kdm/gdm as that for startx
We used to send files in the form of .jpg, .tif, and/or .pdf. Normally the file name will be in the form of 08072011IE01CTYHUB.PDF (DDMMYYYY - is the date, IE - publication, 01 - page number, CTY - edition name and HUB - destination in three characters). These files will be stored in a common folder (say SOURCE). I need a script to move these files to destination by reading the destination from the file name through FTP. At destination these files should be moved to a folder meant for CTY. Please note before the file is sent through FTP it should be compressed (zipped) At SOURCE folder the files will be as:
etc. where first 8 characters are date in the form of DDMMYYYY, next 2 characters are publication, last 3 characters are destination, previous 3 characters are edition and left over in the middle are page number in the form of NN or name. Presently I am zipping these files and send it through FTP to the destination. At destination my counterpart takes the file, stores in appropriate location (like folder name CTY) for use. To automate the above process, I want a script.
I can no longer update Fedora because it fails and hangs on trying to update package "transmission-gtk" due to a dependency "transmission-common" whose source cannot be found. How do I fix this and how can linux update break itself so badly that it adds dependencies to itself without checking for their sources first?
I have a number of uncompressed audio files recorded off of an analog (POTS) telephone line of fax transmissions. Is there a Linux utility or library I could use to convert these files into images of the fax they contain? I'm not looking to send/receive a fax via a modem, but just to "replay" the communications tones and parse out the fax message.I'm guessing this may not be possible due to duplex issues and not knowing which end of the conversation is sending what,but thought I'd ask to see if anyone knew of something.
Possible Duplicate: Torrent client for Ubuntu similar to uTorrent What is a good bittorent client for Linux? So far I used uTorrent on Windows, but recently I moved to Fedora and I saw that uTorrent doesn't support Linux.
I've been looking to get some torrent downloads running on school servers, but I obviously can't install a torrent client because I don't have root (and by extent, can't run anything requiring root privileges). Servers are running various versions of Red Hat (at least the x86_64 ones are, I don't want to recompile if I don't have to). Google has failed me thus far.
I'm trying to ensure an app starts on boot up but after MySQL has been started. I can't however locate where MySQL is being started. If I do a chkconfig, it says MySQL is off, yet I can readily access my databases with phpmyadmin.If I look at my boot log, I can see it says MySQL Server is started, right after Apache2 is started.In my rc5.d directory, I only see a symbolic link for Apache2 but nothing for MySQL. The startup script for MySQL appears in /etc/init.d.rc.local has got nothing in it but comments. So it appears to me like it's being run on startup, but not as a service. But I have next to no knowledge of Linux so don't put too much belief in that.I would have originally installed MySQL via apt-get.
My problem is that my fan will keep running quite quickly once started. It will keep running till reboot independently of CPU usage and temperature. To check the temperature I installed lm-sensors. Output of temperature related commands and kernel version are below. Shouldnt they all give the temperature? My machine is a Toshiba Satellite pro L300. Eg. at the moment my fan is running quite quickly although CPU usage is 3-4% and the temperature according to lm-sensors is approximately 40-45 degrees Celcius.
Some time ago I read a discussion in /r/linux and someone mentioned a script that checks new messages in IRC channel (in irssi client) and if they contain announce urls for torrents, they are passed to a torrent client (rtorrent) for downloading. Sadly, I didn't bookmark it, nor I could find it now. Maybe someone has a similar script?
I have a torrentbox. The special thing about this torrent box is that it's custom built, it has Windows 7 installed and I have full control over it using TightVNC. At the moment I'm using uTorrent WebUI and FTP do download the files. But I'm thinking - When I download a 1,5 hour long video in 30 minutes, wouldn't it be theoretically possible to just WATCH the movie directly from the torrentbox? Obviously this can't be dont using FTP since it makes you download the entire file, BUT:
Is there some other way to fool your OS into thinking that this is a local folder, and get media players like VLC or GOM player to play video files directly? This would be a monumental time- and space saver for me.(I have both Windows and Linux Mint on my PCs)
