View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to run ktorrent from a command-line, or more to the point:from a cron job I like ktorrent, it does it job well. But it bugs me that I have to log inand remain so, just to run an app who's interface is not even required mostof the time.Unfortunately, my provider imposes a montly volume. Nice big volume, but notimposible to run it dry. On the other hand, they count nightly traffic atonly half to actual volume.So I'd like to be able to start ktorrent at a certain time after midnight,and interrupt it at dawn. Or maybe just shutdown the machine at dawn.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've noticed this weird behavior where kTorrent would just stall downloading stuff if left on its own for a few hours. Once you activate kTorrent window from the panel it just gets on with the job, changing status from "stalled" to "downloading" in a few seconds.
Could it have something to do with the external disk I'm downloading on (some of the downloads, not all) being physically different one and connected via usb but mounted in a home directory?
I suspect this because Windows machine connected via samba also loses connection after a while as if there's some "time expiration" set on mounting drives into home.
Here is the fstab line for the suspected mount:
/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Seagate_FreeAgentDesktop_3QK0A0N7-0:0-part1 /home/stan/Seagate ext2 acl,user_xattr 1 2
Is there a way to see the global statistics in KTorrent? I'm referring to the overall share ratio and the total amount of data downloaded & uploaded. - not for the current session, but an all-time info edit: KTorrent version 3.3.4

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have KDE DE in openSUSE 11.4 Tumbleweed.
The issue is with Ktorrent.
When I put the machine to sleep (suspend to ram) with Ktorrent running and then wake the machine up again, the torrents that were working do resume. But they resume in a very poor fashion, continually going into and out of "stalled" status. This bad connectivity continues indefinitely.
I have to kill Ktorrent and restart it to get good data flow back for the torrents that are running. Is there an explanation for this? And is there something I can do to make the torrents resume nicely when I bring the machine back from sleep?
Running openSuSE 11.3 w/ a KDE 4.x desktop. Every time I'm using KTorrent, when I come back into the office and "wake" the monitor, I find KTorrent has crashed and I have to restart it. So I'm guessing that KTorrent is crashing either when my monitor goes to sleep mode or when I'm waking it up. I've tried changing some settings but when the system is running, I cannot seem to access the monitor control panel. Pressing the menu button on the side of the monitor does not bring up the monitor menu. There used to be an easily noticed "Desktop Settings" in KDE 3 but I'm not finding the equivalent in KDE 4. How to keep this Samsung SyncMaster 997DF 19" CRT from going into sleep mode?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to download the same torrent from Win7 and from Ubuntu 10.10..
In Win7, am gettingg a download speed of 102Mb/s whereas in Ubuntu only 40 Mb/s...
Do i need to configure something..
Right now I am using Fedora 10. and I am downloading Fedora 10 by torrent. My problem is that if my system monitor show me that I have downloaded 90 MB then ktorrent showing 30 mb so I am loosing lots of MBs. When I as using windows and utorrent that problem never happens. How to over come that?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter I finish a download in ktorrent, the torrent stops seeding.
A couple of notes: my download speeds are fantastic (~6mb/s), while my seeding during download is about 60kb/s. However, this seed speed seems to fluctuate a lot from about 3kb/s. Once the download completes, the seed goes to 0kb/s, and the torrent doesn't find as many leachers. For now, after I finish downloading, I re-download a portion of my download at a limited rate of 1kb/s so that the seed continues.
Lastly, I am currently running through a VPN server, however I this issue happens even if I'm running a normal connection.
When I am running Ktorrent it takes about 30 seconds for a web page to open, in stead of 1 or 2 seconds. The download speed is very slow 200B/s and the status of most of the torrents is "Stalled". If have opened TCP and UDP ports 36477 4444 6881, 7881, 8881 and added them to the port forwarding list in my router. No difference.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using Ktorrent 3.3.4 (compiled - using KDE 4.3.2) on Ubuntu version 9.10 (Ubuntu 2.6.31-19-generic)
I have tested the shutdown plugin to shutdown when all torrents stop downloading and also tested by selecting when events below happen and manually selecting the torrents.
I have the shutdown button selected.
However on both occasions my PC does not shutdown after the downloads have completed.
What am I doing wrong? Or is it because I am on Ubuntu and using the Gnome desktop and this only works for KDE?
I have Ktorrent installed via the repositories and its always worked perfectly. Today I ran software update with KPackageKit and it installed updates. It told me that KTorrent had to be removed to continue and without thinking I hit ok. Now my KTorrent is gone. When I try to install it on the terminal with
Code:
sudo apt-get install ktorrent
it gives me this error.
Code:
$ sudo apt-get install ktorrent

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ktorrent : Depends: ktorrent-data (= 4.0.3-0ubuntu1) but 4.0.5-3ubuntu1~maverick1~ppa1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages If I remove and reinstall ktorrent-data it doesn't help. build-dep doesn't help. autoremove and then trying to reinstall doesn't help. I'm not running some strange dev version of anything. I have a standard Kubuntu 10.10 amd64 installation and my KDE version is 4.6.2 from the regular repositories. I run updates (standard repositories) almost every day and have never seen anything like this before.
Friend of mine without broadband asked me to download the latest stable release of Mandriva. I started the download with KTorrent and after about 45 minutes came back to check progress and found that the ETA had gone up to around 10 hours for a 4.3 odd GB .iso. Wow thats a long time., I checked network utilization using the graph is System Monitor and we were running around 80 KB/sec. Paused KTorrent and opened Firefox, telling it to download the .iso from the ,edu site. I was very surprised when network utilization went to around 1000 kb/sec and the time to finish was much less (according to the Firefox download manager I have 13% of the file on hand and time to go is 1 hr 11 minutes). I had always been under the impression that any torrent client would be a lot faster than a straight download.......
The ISP here is Comcast. We pay for 6 mb down and around 2 up and routinely get it. The machine is a core quad with 2 GB of RAM. OS is OpenSuse 11.2-64 bit.
So what gives here. Is the torrent site that much slower than a straight download?? Or or could it be something the ISP is doing with torrent activity? I dont know enough about network protocol to know but I found the time difference and the amount of network utilization very surprising.
I'm looking for a distro that has the things i want in it like VLC, Oprea, Firefox, freenet, KTorrent, proxy programs. Only problem is i searched everywhere and can't find anything. I checked out livedistro, reconstructor and a few other places that make the ISO on site but they dont have the options i want. Does anyone know of a place that has an ISO for liveCD with all the stuff im looking for or a place i can make what i want with the items i want? Any info would help thanks for taking your time out to read this.

I want to download the Slackware 13.1 ISO to my Windows system and create a DVD or CDs to install on a separate Linux system (that system currently has Slackware 12.1.0). I went to the php page and clicked on the link, but all I got was a file that's only 26.3 KB. Seems like an ISO image should be a lot bigger than that.Is there something else I need to download first? Will this even work? How should I download the ISOs?Am I missing something?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently started using Transmission torrent client. I love it! The light weight and web interface feature is compelling. I am not able to figure out how to queue torrents.
View 3 Replies View RelatedTorrents work fine on all other machines including on a VM within the affected laptop.
No matter what client I use, nothing ever downloads. For example, right now Transmission says "Downloading from 0 of 0 connected peers - Idle" while WinXP in a virtual machine is downloading at 500 kb/s.
Like I said, it's only one this laptop, with all clients, and it works on a VM.
I've just setup a virtual Ubuntu 10.10 machine on my server running Deluge and WebUI. The WebUI seems to work fine, but if I upload a torrent with a total size over 2Gb I just get an 'error' as soon as the torrent is run.The download folder is a CIFS share to a NAS (Acer Altos EasyStore) folder, I can download torrents that are less than 2Gb in total without any problems.I can read/write large files from the command line or Nautilus but any torrent uploaded to Deluge larger than 2Gb is flagged as 'error' as soon as it is run (with no actual error listed in the torrent details).
