Software p2p for fedora core 8

ogruizr@yahoo.com · 07-06-2008, 06:33 PM

Hi all:

I have a computer with Fedora core 8. What is the best software p2p for Fedora core 8?

I installed amule but It downloads files very slowly.

in fedora 8 "Transmission BitTorrent Client" is installed by default
or ktorrent if you installed KDE
or install it

Code:

su -
yum search torrent
yum install ???????
------------
-- or --
yum install ktorrent
yum install azureus
yum install deluge

and run that

Yes,amule is known to be slow.I will recommend Frostwire,best p2p program I have ever used.It's free but you will need sun's jre 1.5.0 or higher to run it in it's best performance.There are other versions of jre too.

there is no reason to run anything more complex than bittorent and if you need a gui there is one . Azures or Frostwire that need to run in jvm just use system resources.
Transmission and ktorrent will do everything you need

I like ktorrent, always worked well for me.

Does KTorrent work fine with Gnome?

Yes, it does work fine. Most if not all KDE appl will work fine in Gnome, provided you have the reqd libs installed

What do you think about Deluge?

John VV · 07-09-2008, 08:22 PM

i mostly run Gnome but use a lot of kde apps .I just don't care for the kde desktop that much . ktorrent works fine on gnome
"yum install ktorrent " will install all the needed libs if kde is not installed

I am trying with Bittorrent. It comes with Fedora. But It downloads one at a time.

How do I configure Bittorrent to download several files at same time?

Any ideas, Any suggest... are welcome

Hi, there. This is my first post in the forum while I'm looking for a means to download ed2k links (like emule or actually eDonkey links).

Is there a way to configure either ktorrent or Transmission to take care of these links?

Thanks.
