Is anyone using BitTorrent on 9.1? I simply cannot figure out how to get it to work and the documentation is of no help whatsoever. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. David -- "Never offend people with style when you can offend them with substance" -Sam Brown

I installed BitTorrent on 9.0 and want to use Azureus as client but it keeps complaining about needing to update the BT-core to version 2.2.0-wahtever (I'm not at home now and don't remember the right error message, sorry). It downloads a new .jar-file but after a client restart the "need to update"-message appears again and again... Any clues? TIA, Martin
This sounds wrong: I have Azureus running fine on 9.1, and it has
upgraded itself a couple of times. It just seems to work. I know this
isn't much help, but it does show that it can be done.

Make sure you REALLY are running the upgraded version. Best is to completely remove ant traces from the old, and then freshly install it again. I have it running since a few months, and as soon as i made sure i gotthe RIGHT path to the .jar it works like a charm! -- /Rikard --------------------------------------------------------------- Rikard Johnels email : rikjoh@norweb.se Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 735 05 51 01 PGP : 0x461CEE56 ---------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, I had the same problem. It arises from the fact that you installed azureus as root and it can't install the newly downloaded jar (to replace the old jar file, located probably in /usr somewhere). One solution would be to put the .jar file manually in the right place (or run azureus as root). Another solution would be to install a new rpm (check out the apt mirrors on ftp.linux.ee). Hope this helps, Laur

I've added the following tot he bottom of the /etc/mailcap config file # #Bit-tornado added Nov13/2004 application/x-bittorrent; /opt/Bit-Tornado/btdownloadgui.py %s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" Notes - the last two lines are actually one line there is a space after the semi-colon, i.e. ".py %s; test=test" - the /opt/Bit-Tornado/btdownloadergui.py is the path to where you have bittorrent installed. (Bit tornado and bit torrent use the same file names for interchangeability. hth, Mike

That's what I use here-- Pretty nice client, other than the fact that it's done in dog-slow Java ;) It also has some nice plugins that do things like block *IAA media organizations if you happen to be downloading something other than the latest Linux distro discs.
