Couldn't build from source, couldn't find binary
by jim burton - Mar 22nd 2004 05:30:15
This is just an observation about looking for the 0.93.3 rpm - I had
problems building from source on mdk10 - ./Configure seemed to go OK, I
accepted the defaults for anything I wasn't sure about but make baled out
with errors re lib_gtk(?) & glade. But on
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4467 only the deb and
the src are listed, so I didn't know there was an rpm available til I
checked here. (rpm installation was fine)

I meant to mention that the sourceforge link is pointed to by Downloads on
the project home page

Not so cool.
by spiritlover - Aug 7th 2003 05:27:24
Running under Knoppix, gtk-gnutella did a random crash on me overnight.
Also, it couldn't tell when it had the whole thing....I checked the /tmp
file and noticed it was done..so I aborted the still-running
downloads...and lost the whole file due to the delete-fragment-on-abort
feature. (Alert!! Future Feature Suggestion!) Maybe it should check the
file-size on the server against the file-size on your machine when you
abort, and pop up a window telling you how much of it you've got, and
asking if you're sure...maybe if it's over 50% or something?
Or maybe it should just recognize that it's got the whole thing and remove
the downloads. (amazing.)
Would also be nice if the main download window showed speeds.

You must be running an old version. Try the newest 0.93.

Great client
by Helge Ingvoldstad - Jun 15th 2003 04:03:18
It's stable and fast, but the GUI isn't as user friendly as it could have
been. :) Small download, deps are met by a standard installation.

gtk-gnutella is great
by DannyB3 - Nov 23rd 2001 00:12:12
Overall, I'd say gtk-gnutella is great. The user
interface isn't outstanding, but is sufficient. That is,
not great, but perfectly usable. It is vastly more
efficient than the java based gnutella clients. One
feature which still is missing even in current releases
is advertising banners.

In order to be feature competitive with certian other Gnutella clients,
gtk-gnutella would need to implement some missing features. Namely...
* Advertising banners
* Spyware
* Advertising banners
* Require you to give personal information in order to download
* Advertising banners
* Automatic spam generation to the address given when you registered for
the download
* Advertising banners
* Tracking of what files you exchange with whom
* Did I mention Advertising banners?
If gtk-gnutella were to add at least some of these missing features, then
it would be more on the same level as some other Gnutella clients.

I agree
by cxvx - Nov 18th 2001 01:01:08
It's nice to see a lean mean client, I was used to the slo-mo
java clients.
Yhe UI is a bit rough though.

Very good!
by Toastie - Jun 10th 2001 09:04:00
An excellent client. The UI isn't very polished yet,
but it can do all Limewire can (search tabs,
download queueing, monitoring) and can't (restart
search, duplicate search, filters) in a 6th of the
resource usage.
