View 11 RepliesI use rtorrent in slackware. I already tried to use deluge 1.2.3 and even 1.3rc1 and 1.3rc2 but I find them a little unstable. Witch is your favorite? For lot of torrents and maximum encryption?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI decided to use my old computer for torrent downloads and perhaps for mirroring the slack -current. However, the computer is rather weak: Celeron 1,2Ghz, 256 MB RAM. So, which slack release is better to use? I aim to use the jfs file system, but I'm not sure it is good choice.

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.

The installer is trying to download amd.iso.torrent, but I guess it should be downloading i386.iso.torrent. At, the same time I am getting permission denied even though I allowed access from my firewall.
View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery time I download torrents in Ubuntu 11.04 on my desktop, using Transmission or Deluge clients, the wireless transfer speed abruptly drops off, becomes very choppy, and in general doesn't remain stable. It's not only the torrent download that slows down, but it's everything including web surfing, even though I'm not maxing out my connection speed. It's not that I'm getting disconnected from my router, it's just that the wireless transfer speed drops off, becomes intermittent, and never gets back up to full speed.
At first I thought that my ISP was throttling my connection, but this issue doesn't happen with a direct cable connection to my router, nor did it happen when I was running Ubuntu 10.04 before. It also doesn't happen when I'm downloading the exact same torrents over wireless using my netbook running Ubuntu Netbook Remix. This issue ONLY seems to happen when using a bittorrent client while on wireless on Ubuntu 11.04 on my desktop. I can max out my internet connection speed by streaming videos, downloading from FTP, etc. using wireless just fine, and the transfer speed remains stable. This also seems to happen with a couple of different wireless USB adapters (rt73usb or rtl8187 drivers).
I have Centos 5 installed on a PC in the local network. I have installed the RPM dhcpv6-client-1.0.10-16.el5.i386.rpm on this PC to configure it as DHCP V6 client. The RPM was installed successfully, and I have done modifications to the following files:
1. /etc/sysconfig/network, set the networking to yes.
2. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 set the BOOTPROTO=DHCP.
Now the problem is when I start the client on this pc as dhclient, it throws the following errors, and logs out after some time. All the network configurations were lost and the PC gets disconnected from the network.

I am new to linux/fedora. Got 1 question. What is the best torrent client for fedora/linux?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have both windows and fedora 12 and have noticed I get much faster downloads with windows. Is there a bit torrent client that works extremely well with fedora? I have transmission and it is very slow. I have tested with the same exact files and windows is so much faster.
View 13 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.
Is there any torrent client with gui for centos and how do I download it and install it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just replaced my Windows XP for Ubuntu on my desktop computer and I'm now looking for a torrent client that has some useful features that I miss from uTorrent, such as:
- Queuing torrents
- Setting bandwidth priority for multiple files within a torrent
- Auto-shutdown when finished
- DHT
- Bandwidth control
I currently use Deluge for torrents, and I have many torrents which I would like to keep seeding 24/7 on my desktop computer. This machine is on 24/7, and has many users, both locally (using the standard Ubuntu GUI on a monitor, keyboard, and mouse hooked to the actual machine) and remotely (via ssh). My point is that this is a multiuser system. I am the administrator/have root access.
Anyway, the point is, I would like to run a BitTorrent client on this system without having to have any user logged in just to sustain it. Currently, the only way I know of keeping BitTorrent active at all times is to log in locally via the GUI, turn on Deluge, and then hit "lock screen," protecting my session and allowing others to log in locally as well while I'm gone (via "Switch User"). It is a big drain on system resources to have me logged in all the time (especially with a GUI).
I think I have explained the problem...Is there a solution? I use Deluge and like it, so I'd like to stick with it, but if there is a better option for this purpose, I am willing to switch.
I have Ubuntu on my notebook. I wanted to install a torrent client on my external HDD. Can I install a client and then just move it to the HDD?If so, how can I find where the app is installed? I really think that synaptic should show me where the hell it installed the application.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install a torrent client (I don't know which is best for Linux Mint).
I've tried Bit Torrent and Ktorrent.
When I download these files they come like something that reads: ktorrent-4.0.3.tar.bz2
I open the folder and it contains a bunch of files that I have no idea what to do with.
I've been a Windows user all of my life, so I'm basically used to just being able to install software within a few clicks.
I guess what I want to know here is how I am supposed to install ANY software on Linux.
I have Linux Mint (If that makes a difference).
I am using two ethernet interface, in fact one ethernet interface eth0 and other is USB netconenct ppp0. I am using fedora 12 - 32 bit. I can individually use both connections. say if I disconnect ppp0 (wvdialer), everything works fine and same in other case. Now my problem is I want torrent client to use ppp0 and all other applications like firefox and other use eth0. So that I can use both interfaces effectively.
I changed in ktorrent client's configuration, and change interface to ppp0 from all interface, but it didnt work. When my eth0 id down I can ping using ppp0, but when eth0 is also up, I can ping via eth0 but not via ppp0 (ping xxxxx -I interface). What is I am doing wrong? How can I configure torrent client to use ppp0?
How can I use a torrent client in a network where bittorrent or any thing like this is blocked. I am aware of a combination of socks proxy with torrent client but not exactly sure if this is the thing I need.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a program which has the same in-program search system as LimeWire/Frostwire, in the sense that when you type in your query, the program opens a results window in-program, listing all torrents relating to the query. I'm looking for this because my sister doesn't want to look for downloads on a torrent site, she just wants to stay in the program. Personally, I don't mind the current method, but I do understand the irritation when all you've even known is Limewire (and derivatives). I simply made the jump, but I agree that initially, it was jarring. I know that uTorrent has a search function, but it opens a web browser to search, and that's not what I'm looking for.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'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.
