I've made the leap from Windows to Ubuntu 12.04 for about a week now. All has been going well and i even managed to fix the slow Internet issue but i definately need specific help with this one.

I share a laptop with my brother who installed Tor, tor-geoipdb and torsocks. I removed these applications as I realised the Internet was slow for some reason.

The problem I have now is that Deluge will not download anything, I tried to uninstall reinstall but still the same thing.

  • port settings are correct, I'm not port forwarding or anything like that at the moment as i've never had to do this for it to work. when i run sudo netstat -lp --inet I can see that deluge is listening on ports but i get no traffic. also how exactly do i delete ~/.config/deluge, is it through the normal remove command?

Can you help???

Have you already tried to delete ~/.config/deluge? Are the port settings correct? – Exeleration-G Jun 27 '12 at 21:36

ran: sudo apt-get remove ~/.config/deluge and then i get an error saying E: Unable to locate package /home/wyliecoyote/.config and E: Couldn't find any package by regex '/home/wyliecoyote/.config' – user73667 Jun 27 '12 at 22:11
apt-get is for installing and uninstalling packages, not for removing files; you can remove ~/.config/deluge by typing rm -r ~/.config/deluge, or by just going to your home folder, press Ctrl+H to show hidden files, then navigate to .config and remove the deluge directory. – Exeleration-G Jun 28 '12 at 11:47
this has not worked, its not connecting to anyone in the swarm, the message at the bottom still says no incoming connections, but disappears when i test the port in preferances – user73667 Jun 28 '12 at 16:53
