mtweidmann Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 You have several options, there are numerous gnutella clients for Linux, mldonkey and some people run Kazaa (using Wine). There are also Napster clients floating around but how useful they are now is debatable. Running Kazaa/Kazaa Lite is not easy, but there instructions on how to set it up available on the web. http://www.bartendavid.be/doc/howto/instal...a-english.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cgibbons87 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Share Posted October 8, 2003 xmule is THE best. It's almost kazaa. If you use easy urpmi (http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/) you can install it with "urpmi xmule" (as root) (on the comand line) . I've gotten GIGS of TV episodes with it.You can also pick up [coughf]popular windows emulator[coughf] with it ;-D It's possible to get the real kazaa to run with wine HOWEVER don't try it! I spent 6 hours before i got it to run and it was really laggy. You need to be a real wineconfig hacker to pull that off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
