[expert] Kazaa for linux

2002-12-16 Thread J. Grant
Hi, I downloaded kazaa for linux a few weeks ago. needed to install an old ncurses to get it to run, but it is not ever connecting. Support seems to be missing from the kazaa.com site as well now. Has anyone got this working? or found a better working p2p network client for GNU/linux? Regards

Kazaa for linux will never connect. If you want to use kazaa you need to install wine and then check out http://www.kazaalite.com. The install for linux instructions get the job done. Simon J. Grant ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > Hi, > > I downloaded kazaa for linux a few weeks ago. needed to in

Hi, actually, I don't get that working either... installed it, replaced the .exe, and put the HOSTS file in /mnt/win_c/windows as well as in /etc, but kazaa crashes at startup... it shows the window for a few seconds, but then I get "uncaught exception"... Any ideas? Thanks Hans On Mon, 2002-1

Please take no offense, but why do you need kazaa for linux when you have gtk-gnutelk, qtella, limeware, etc. ? SainTiss wrote: Hi, actually, I don't get that working either... installed it, replaced the .exe, and put the HOSTS file in /mnt/win_c/windows as well as in /etc, but kazaa crash

Hi, So these programs are good now? limeware was poor last time i tried, and the gnutella was nearly as bad. I got Kazaa 1.72 working, 2.02 would not work. I start it like this "wine --dll shlwapi,shfolder,shdocvw=n zazaa.exe" if that is useful for anyone. JG Todd Franklin wrote: Please take

Nope, I'm not, I'm in New Zealand (though I am also an American) and if they want to prosecute me, they need to come here to do it and PROVE I did something wrong, which there are many ways of avoiding. Cheers Jason Tom Brinkman wrote: On Monday December 16 2002 05:50 pm, J. Grant wrote:

Yes, I concur. It IS possible for the copyright holders but a royal pain in the a** to prosecute someone who downloads maybe 1-3 songs per week, that may or may not be copyrighted. Cheers J Ron Stodden wrote: Jason Greenwood wrote: Nope, I'm not, I'm in New Zealand (though I am also an Ame
