What's a good filesharing program of this kind (but with relevant search results) for Linux?

LimeWire runs off Java, so it's platform independent.

Whatever you're searching, ask Hikaru if he's got it first. Wink

I typically use gtk-gnutella, as it's the only client I've found for *BSD. Used to use Limewire for Linux, way back when.

Oh, and I have that problem on occasion. Not a clue why it does that though.

After doing a search on a song someone recommended I came up with some hits that were just disgusting. It's been sudo apt-get remove'd. I don't know if I want to go with LimeWire, firstly because of Java, but secondly because (IIRC) it's a gnutella client and I'm not sure I trust the service at all anymore.

Tomorrow morning, direct connect runs the p2p gauntlet.

Demonoid is great, but BitTorrent doesn't help everything...

for generall p2p type stuff I use the giFT deamon and one of many clients for it (depending on what I'm doing). Connects to gnutella, fasttrack, openFT, and ares networks. and since it's a deamon you can run in in the background so if you ever need to restart X you don't need to disconnect Very Happy
