Bittorrent-gui Thru Synaptic
« on: January 06, 2010, 01:25:00 PM »

run,

so from synaptic, i downloaded python2.2, mime-support, and verified that a necessary lib file was installed so i could download bittorrent (plus gui) thru synaptic.

this went well, but when i execute bittorrent in term, it returns bittorrent: command not found

since i have never ad luck with wine, id like to keep things as native as possible (stay away from wine + utorrent, etc).  any tips for setting up either bittorrent or qtorrent?

update:

a reboot seems to have rectified the problem.  btornado is running and i found the "click to mount" applet that i didnt realize was there before.  thanks to the screen fix, i can now easily click and mount, and in this case i am now torrenting to my videos folder on my f partition.  it was *never* this easy before i understood linux.

i decided that spring semester i will probably enroll for linux certification where im at out here.
