Hey guys, my only gripe at moment is the inability to get bittornado installed on my Vector PC. Vector is a lighter version of slackware..

Is there a simplified howto for installing bittornado on slackware. I have tried azureus, but i need bittornado, due to its special ports 10000 to 10010 ports forwarding. I have preferences for those ports.. My firewall does not block those....

I download bittornado-gui from slackware 10.1, but cannot find wxpythonGTK anywhere. I was told this was one of its dependencies. Any ideas howto install bittornado successfully? On my mepis installs, this was very straight-forward from synaptic.. It got the dependencies..

It is tough to do here for me. Perhaps, due to my newbieness....

I really want to make slack my distro of choice for broadening my knowledge, but also due the speed I have witnessed from Vector.. It is simply incredible...

You need two seperate packages (not wxpythonGTK):

wxGTK (the wxWidgets library for GTK)
wxPython (a Python wrapper for wxGTK)

You can download Slackware packages for them from linuxpackages.net, though I won't guarantee how well they will work on Vector. I do have some SlackBuild's I can put up for them if you want to build from source?
