Hello everybody,
I just wanted to know if somebody could explain or give me a good link with a good HOWTO install Kazaa using Wine....

I'm runnind Woody Debian and using kernel 2.4

I tried before, but it won't run

I doubt you will be able to get kazza to run using wine. Either pay for Kazza Light or get LimeWire. I think you will prefer it anyhow.

Theres a howto on getting Kazaa working w/ wine over there.

how do you have to pay for kazaa lite, didn't sherman shut it down, and limeare works nice

Hmmmz, yeah, i got LimeWire running since a couple of days, but i'm not really satisfied, it doesn't find too much, and yeah i didn't mean Kazaa Lite or something just Kazaa Lite Resurrection.... It works fine on my Windows machine, so i wanted to try it in Linux =)

i haven't tried yet to use kazaa with wine, but i can tell you another thing.
if you used to download bittorrent files you can use the wine emulator to use BitSpirit (a client interface for bitspirit files). you simply have to copy the folder (for example c:\programs\BitSpirit) to your linux partition and type (when you are into the directory) using a shell (USER MODE!!) "wine <program-name.exe>".

this is the standard procedure to use wine emulator for windows programs!
now i'll try to use kazaa...if you want to know if it works i'll reply to you.

Oh, nice, yeah, i would like to know if it worked =)
if it works, could you also write what you did to make it work?

The K++ version of Kazaa strips out the ads, spyware, and even adjusts your settings so that you get download priority over "normal" users.

Note, this may only work on Windows, but it is worth it...

Also, check out the eDonkey 2000 network...

I've been trying to kick my Windows habit, but these apps keep me coming back for another fix

yeah, indeed, that's why i dual boot but it sucks, to switch each time from crappy windows to nice linux =) ....

I doubt anyone is going to get kazza running on linux with wine in one day. Wine is not an emulator after all. Does Kazza lite not exist anymore?

and i gorgot to mention, if kazaa lite k++ also works, i'm satisfied too

uhm...i have tried to use wine with kazaa(lite++) but it doesnt work. the problem is that when you run kazaa the program tries to read sone registry entries than cannot be found when you are running...anyway i think you can live also without kazaa there are lots of programs similar to that (like gtk-gnutella, or aMlue, for example), and i also think that kazaa IS a spyware!!

bye!!

matteo

yeah, the problem: with gtk-gnutella, i get some stupid firewall problems

uh yeah me too, maybe i have misconfigured my router....but no problrm, i use aMule, i think it's really the best!

yeah? maybe i should search for a deb of amule....
