Where is the Bittorrent client?
I've looked everywhere, but it's not to be found, but I know it's there from reading the packages list for 3.4! (Which is what I'm using btw). I mean, right now I have no windows and I can't do a HD install of this (family pc) so I need to find something to d/l torrent stuff till Windows is running again!

On Knoppix 3.4, there's a shell script to start the GUI front end for BitTorrent, in /usr/bin. It's named "btdownloadgui". After you download a *.torrent file, click on it in Konqueror and associate it with /usr/bin/btdownloadgui, and your download will start.

did that, got this message:
ERROR: Could not load wbPython.
In order to use this script, you must have wxPython installed.
It is available in the package libwxgtk2.3-python.
(libwxgtk2.2-python will not work with bittorrent, and also triggers this message)
Note: As of Jan 24, 2003, libwxgtk2.3-python isn't in testing
and has been discounted for 115 days. You can use btdownloadeheadless.py
and btdownloadcurses.py to accomplish the same task from a terminal.

Haven't yet tried 3.4 but try "btdownloadcurses filename.torrent"
Faster with typing "btd <tab> c <tab> few_chars_of_filename <tab>"
