I tried both btdownloadcurses and btdownloadheadless by starting normally, seeing that my downloads are all complete but wanna leve up for uploading. I then ctrl-z to get my shell and then I type 'bg' to background the torrent. The problem is, doing a 'jobs' always shows the process as stopped. the bg command apparently isn't getting the process to resume running.; I also can't it to work with the '&' sign after the command either. The only way I can see doing this is to launch these torrents with consols oat home and just leave them open for the day. Is that my only choice? - -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://ld.net/?holmesgrown -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCClaCWSjv55S0LfERArlnAJ460psMgjKWo+rry9pTe+39aY+m1QCfYP1w 10MNx/KzS6IvoId2VdL4ny4= =Sgnw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
