    Can you use torrent software like Transmission on Acer One, Linpus Linux Lite?

    There are serveral BitTorrent clients available. Transmission 0.82 (3009) is one of them and can be added via the Package Manager. I've installed it and it's starting but I haven't tried to download anything yet.

    Update: It's silently crashing when you try to download something. So it seems not everything is working right away :).

    Linkage is working and just started downloading a torrent file. It has more dependencies (the boost libs for example) but at least it seems to do the job.
