[opensuse-factory] DVD torrents not effective?
Hi, the DVD torrents for Alpha6 are annoying. The i386 image stalled at 99,90%. But since 10 hours no progress for the last piece. The x86_64 image is downloading with approx 15KB/s and I have 46%. Do others have the same problem? Is it just me? With Alpha5 it was no problem. Is there any help? -- Andreas Vetter Fakultaet fuer Physik und Astronomie Universitaet Wuerzburg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Strange. I actually measure less traffic than usual on my server, now just 5MB/s with 90 clients, and for previous alphas it was 8-15MB/s with 200+ clients. I guess, it's summer , less people are downloading, so less people are seeding. Anyway, I have all three images at 100%, so you should not have download troubles. Maybe just restart your torrent client to see a different set of peers. Bye, CzP Ps: seeded already half a terra byte :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Must be local difficulties at some points, Donn Washburn was also having problems, but here in the UK on cable I started the DVD torrent at 11:42 and at 16:25 I have 3.31 of 3.83 GB downloaded.

Similar experience here: though it started (last night) very slowly, the full x86 DVD and the delta both completed by the time I got in from work (so must be < 24 hours). Both will be left seeding for a fortnight or so, maybe longer but it's only an Alpha. Time now to try it out... -- Cheers Richard (MQ) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Do others have the same problem? Is it just me? With Alpha5 it was no problem.
Is there any help?
Cancel the torrent, and fetch the images by ftp. _All_ P2P is usually annoying, and as a general rule, I resort to it only if there is no other option.l -- Hypocrisy is the homage vice pays to virtue. -- François de La Rochefoucauld --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Works great for me. However I only got a2 as full DVD. Since then I get the deltadvd (via BT, fast with no problems) apply it, and then seed the full DVD. Right now I seed a6 x86_64 DVD (and 10.2 DVD, and a5->a6 delta). Maybe you should have a look at your local situation. What BT-client do you use? Does it support DHT? Have you configured NAT and SuSEfirewall? It should work ok no matter what, but the above steps will improve performance. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I use ktorrent, and after some more hours x86_64 is finished. I'll try to quit it and start again: Yes, that's the trick. Only stopping the transfer inside ktorrent is not enough. one really has to close it and start again.
