I try vmware and it's working. Only that the initial few days I can get around 80kBps but now only 10-20kBps. Using bridged mode (default setting) and I can see the download speed is tally with my cFosSpeed indicator so I would say it is accurate. Those that using PPPoE Dialer, save your hassle. Get a router and both your windows and linux will be able to browse together. To me I use ubuntu solely for Torrent download. Still need my windows for MediaCentre and my normal apps.

Fellow ubuntu n00b here. Been trying ktorrent out for the past couple days and interested in trying deluge. If you're using Feisty like me here's a link to a good guide:

http://howto.landure.fr/gnu-linux/ubuntu-f...ntu-feisty-fawn

thats weird. how come so many people got slow speed after a few days... must be tmnux doing sumthing about this.

I'm also a Ubuntu Feisty Fawn newbie here i.e. about 2 weeks. I am currently downloading Ubuntu Ultimate Edition 1.4 (about 2Gigs) and you can find it here. The screenshots look really excellent.

PS - I also use Ubuntu Feisty Fawn mainly for downloading torrents using Deluge as it seems to work the best for me even downloading from overseas IPs. However, I'm beginning to like it more and more.

I only can use NAT.. how to use bridged mode?

how do u associate both os to use 1 hdd?


already installed ubuntu on vmware but i got problem sharing files btw these 2 OS...

speed is still fine for me. was downloading at 160kB/s even yesterday night.
im starting to feel as if people dont understand the CONCEPT of torrents

Simple. After all experiment, I found out if you want ubuntu to access your windows ntfs, you need ntfs-3g installed. Use sypnatic manager to search and install the package. But you can only access in read-only mode due to windows is still actively accessing the ntfs partition.

Second way which is much better is to create a ext3 partition in your hdd. Download ext2ifs and install in your window. This is to allow your windows to access the ext3 partition. Then set your vmware to create a hdd which connect to this ext3 partition. When you run ubuntu, make sure windows is not using the ext3 partition in ifs drive utility. After you are done, you can either shutdown ubuntu or umount the ext3 partition created, and use ifs drive tools to connect the partition to a drive value such as u: (you can choose any available drive you want).

Hope this help. I'm a linux noob and always prefer windows. Most answer is in ubuntu documentation and just google it. This is how I find out most of the answer.

Added on August 22, 2007, 8:14 amI suspect this is tally to some of the discussion in LYN. As I use a different port no for ubuntu, TMNUT shaping might based on port no activity too. Once they found out the port is always busy with multiple conneciton, the system might throttle your traffic based on that port no with lower priority. Just a theory anyway.

Yeah, damn true, like every time got low speed, it is "associated" with the streamyx connection

i have install unbuntu..how can i install deluga?

Using your ubuntu, open Firefox and go to Deluge Homepage

Get the Deluge client there

can someone teach me how to install ktorrent on ubuntu 7.04 super noob here

3 ways to do this

1.look for deb packages.
http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=KTorrent

2. use the add/remove under applications

3. but if you want to know how to compile from source:
first cd to your desktop

if you are missing dependencies i suggest you use the synaptic package manager to find them.

ady use add/remove under applications but.....

You have to comment out the cdrom reference in /etc/apt/sources.list

i ady done:

1. install vmware
2. extract ubuntu 7.04
3. run ubuntu with vmware

wanna install ktorrent but dunno how.ady download ktorrent 2.2.1.tar.gz at desktop.could someone teach me

Hmm. After a few days, my WinSCP is unable to connect to my VMWare Ubuntu. Locally within my Ubuntu, I'm able to ssh localhost. Ping is ok both ways. Is it because that my key expired? Coz recently I suffer few power lost in my place here, but I'm not sure whether this contributes to this issue or not.

As I've posted above, here is an almost idiot-proof guide to installing Deluge.

http://howto.landure.fr/gnu-linux/ubuntu-f...ntu-feisty-fawn

A question tho - on ktorrent I can get good speeds, relatively; but is there something I need to do to get Deluge to work? As mentioned, am linux n00b.

Thanks!

Really weird ler. Sometimes after few hours i dl, the speeed go slow and i need to rec my streamyx only can get back the speed. Who know how to fix?

The speed is quite accurate.
