O.P. Linux Torrent Program
I am after a torrent application for use on a linux based system.
I would prefer it to be very low memory intensive as it is running on a really old machine. I was just going to see if I could use it as a downloading pc.
So does anyone have any experience with one that would run smoothly on a slow pc?
Thanks

RE: Linux Torrent Program
Sorry, I am not sure if there are any torrent clients to run on a linux machine, unless you use a windows emulator to run it, I doubt you could find one that easily.

I have looked through the programs etc. on SourceForge, and I can't really find any that support linux, they mostly support Windows only.

That chances are that there is actually one, but I can't find it, I'll keep looking anyway.

Feel free to seach through here:

SourceForge Bit-Torrent Client Search.

Bit Torrent for Operating Systems other than Windows, sorry if I offended you animal, I didn't mean that you weren't right, I just meant that when I looked through there, I couldn't find any...
