Easy BitTorrent for Slackware
Hey guys,
Anyone know a easy bit torrent client that doesnt require that much configuration ? Something i can get off slackbuilds.org build it and forget about it. Its just for downloading music (legally of course :P) Thanks guys |
|
aria2 for the command line or the Opera browser has a built in bittorrent client
|
I always use qbittorrent, no other GUI based client can beat it.
Package at http://slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/qbittorrent/ and you need to install this bittorrent library too: http://slackware.com/~alien/slackbui...ent-rasterbar/ Eric |
Thanks for the links, Eric. I really like the look of qbittorrent.
|
+1 for Transmission. I find it much simpler than uTorrent (and probably qbittorrent).
|
btpd which is available in SBo is really good and simple
|
OMFG !! alien bob participated on one of my threads (thats awesome) !!! thanks guys im all up and running now. appreciate your help.

I have tried to install qtorrent, but it only shows a splash screen and then crashes. If i try to run it from terminal, i get:
$ qbittorrent Peer ID: -qB2690- HTTP user agent is qBittorrent v2.6.9 qbittorrent: symbol lookup error: qbittorrent: undefined symbol: _ZN10libtorrent7session9set_proxyERKNS_14proxy_settingsE Iv'e got libtorrent-rasterbar, zziplib and GeoIP installed from slackbuilds. |
If you use KDE, give ktorrent a try. That's why I use, anyway.
|
I use vuze/azureus. Yeah, it's java, but there's no deps and it works fine, one of the few good java programs.
|
sticked to rtorrent for a long time
|
Azureus is great, but only with classic interface. Ktorrent is not bad.
|
This is almost a poll, so here's my personal opinion: :)
- transmission for GUI (will build GTK and Qt interface) (*) - rtorrent for the command line An updated script for the newer version will be available for Slackware 13.37 soon. |
