Well, I got my new installation of FC4t3 installed and running just fine. Now, I need to get BitTorrent working properly.

This FC release is using a lot of bleeding edge software, like the latest Python, wxPython, and GTK+ libraries, so I'm getting package compatibility errors.

So, I used yum

Code:
    yum install bittorrent <enter>

and it appeared to install BitTorrent just fine but I still can't get any torrents to start. I had several that I was working on under Windows prior to the Linux install, so I know the files are "good."

Anyone have any other ideas on if there are compatibility issues, etc.? Maybe I'm just not using BitTorrent under Linux properly.

I associated .torrent files with /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py , but that just creates a zombie process.

Any clues?

thanks in advance!
