No No transmission is for torrents only Limwire is not a torrent application Cheers for that though i already have Transmission

I use Nicotine, it runs on the soulseek servers.

Re: Is there a Limewire like program for N900?

I got running the frostwire p2p (open source version of limewire) Software on the n900.It is working fine.

You need to install the java jre for arm.
I found it here:
http://rapidshare.com/#!download|273...1.tar.gz|34124
( with root privileges)

you extract the archive to /opt (you also can do it with filebox filemanager,with root mode activated in settings )

Code:

tar -xvzf /YOUR_DOWNLOAD_FOLDER_PATH/ejre-1_6_0_21.tar.gz -C /opt/

and then link it with :

Code:

ln -s /opt/ejre1.6.0_21/bin/* /usr/bin/

and then

Code:

chmod 777 /usr/bin/java

now you can download the frostwire tarball
from http://www.frostwire.com/?id=downloads end extract it to a folder like /home/user/Mydocs/

Code:

tar -xvzf /YOUR_DOWNLOAD_FOLDER_PATH/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch.tar.gz -C /home/user/Mydocs/

you can launch it with

Code:

java -jar /home/user/Mydocs/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch/FrostWire.jar

(note thate your Frostwire folder or archive name may be a different one, replace X.XX.X with current frostwire version number)

hi, i have been searchin for XXwire for ages, do you know if XXwire kills memory like transmission does i.e. makin everything read only

Re: Is there a Limewire like program for N900?

Oh o dont know, if it kills memory.
I think it is better to set the folders to the memorycard.. it is saver

and i will not run it for hours..

Re: Is there a Limewire like program for N900?

i cant extract the file it giving me this tar: /opt: not found in archive tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

Re: Is there a Limewire like program for N900?

this reeks of effort. is there not an easy install app in the repo's? if not, why not?

Re: Is there a Limewire like program for N900?

yes , why has no one done this !!
