HTH Richard Hmmm. Like I said the interesting thing is that I only got it with 9.1 rpms on a 9.2 upgrade. I was doing some testing of various things, basically related to the results of an upgrade and what gets left behind vs a clean install. I do have the windows like functionality. That's perhaps the frustrating point.. No wait I have better functionality. Lemmme think here. James Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I'm going nuts ! I've installed bittorrent exactly as per the FAQ on the club pages. All the RPMS installed and bittorrent3.3.2, and the gui version. I'm running Gnome here so on the menus under networkingfile transfer I have 2 icons, One for bittorrent creator, and the other for bittorrent gui. select either has no effect. trying from the command line with the test package [EMAIL PROTECTED] richard]# btdownloadcurses.py test mytorrent-richardbown929.torrent Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/bin/btdownloadcurses.py, line 7, in ? from BitTorrent.download import download ImportError: No module named BitTorrent.download OK I can download 9.2 on a win98 using win4lin.

The test file might have gone, but the ipaddress is still the same ,albeit it is dynamic and only changes when one of the routers gets changed. I would have expected something to happen when clicking on the icons that got installed when the bittorrent rpms were installed. Also running both mozilla on win98 and mdk9.1 the helper5 apps are in both, yet on mdk9.1 the torrent function dos'nt go. Oh well 75 hrs to go and I might have all 3 iso's..
