    Can't download Mint Linux torrent using KTorrent

    Kubuntu Gutsy 32-bit
    Kubuntu Feisty 32-bit

    KTorrent is installed, and works. I've used it to download *ubuntu torrents. When I select the torrent for Mint Linux, the Status reported in KTorrent is:

    Could not connect to host www.lintelligence.de (port 2710)

    The Tracker that gets loaded is:

    http://www.lintelligence.de:2710/announce:6881/announce

    The problem exists, running either version of Kubuntu.

    Has/is anyone else experiencing problems downloading Mint Linux torrents using KTorrent?

    the tracker looks to be down. If this persists, I think that linuxtracker probably has one that may not be using the same tracker.

      Appears to be the case on LinuxTracker as well. Status is reported as Offline and it is also pointing to http://www.lintelligence.de:2710/announce:6881/announce

          There's no info there about trackers being down or something like that (I can read German )
          If I go to http://www.lintelligence.de/downloadcenter.html it looks like I can download a torrent from there. I didn't actually download it, but it starts kTorrent and looks okay.

            Nope. Followed the links to the torrent file, and the same result in KTorrent.

              Of course, the normal ftp links still work
              Though I do prefer torrents so i can share the load

                I emailed them this afternoon, letting them know about the problem.
