Yes I did and you are right about the Java version. It also explains why the mousescroll wheel didn't work. I removed the internatioal version and am now using the english version instead. All problems are solved now. :)
Thanks for your help.

RAM use on iMac
 

Here's a user where the ram issue seems to be playing havoc with LW (unless it's something else) on an iMac with 512 MB RAM: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...&postid=105520 Any ideas?
Quote: I do have a few other apps open when using lime wire, usually just i Tunes and Safari and maybe Messenger but thats about it. It did get better last night when i closed a few things down. Is Java getting a bit over-worked here?

another gui problem
 

well first off sorry for not having a screenshot ready- i did but i set my workarea smaller than the img on the clipboard..... it happens often enough that i'll have one soon tho-
what happens is this... after ive been away from the pc awhile, and i come back n bring lw outta the tray, the horozontal bar at the bottom of the screen doesnt appear. instead the list extends to the bottom window border. if i close (to tray) and re-open it comes back w/in 3 tries.

btw: anyone know where i can host an image free so i can post a link? i used to have a bookmark, but its been lost. ty

duh...
 

i guess some details would help....
lw418pro java5 ultrapeering upload cap at 21kB, xp home, 512ram, 1.4 celly and 45 or so processes any given moment eating 5-600M, most of which running in idle priority, cpu's always hella busy- usually hangs out around 60% busy when im not, ram's usually got about 100m free

Yeah, that's a known problem EllisD. Auto-fixing it has proved elusive so far.. we'll see if there's a way.

I thought most pc's could take snap-shots! I don't remember what the keyboard command is though for windows. Oh how about the Printscreen button &/Printscreen & alt is it, I'm not sure for selective size. And then paste the snapshot into another app. For mac there's a keyboard command & I also have a freeware app that saves the pic in any format I wish. I'll generally resize the image smaller before I use it in the forum.

yup thats how it works...... is there a way to make the board accept a file directly? all i see is the img button that asks for a remote location

yo just as i pressed the "submit reply" button i saw the file chooser.... really ive never noticed it there before- only the img button..... needless to say i feel sooooooo stupid!!!

download connections breaking on chunks?
 

Hi all--some more info re interrupted transfers

while testing magnets (downloading the latest jum360 from jum's very busy client :) I noticed it would transfer 100KB then show the "Waiting for Busy" message in the downloads panel. We are both using the latest CVS version (jum360). A few minutes later or by using the Resume button the dl continues. So far only 45% of the file has downloaded in 3 hrs.

I wondered if this is intentional--will a busy host rotate uploads after serving up one chunk, or is this a problem?

btw--the GC fix seems to be working: I'm running as the usual UP with lots of uploads and as many GUI parts open as I can, and the VM has only gone up very slowly.

Limewire relies on the host OS management of TCP. At least on linux that is totally unfair and if bandwidth throttling is enabled, one fast downloader will monopolize the entire available bandwidth - we've observed situations where one upload is going at the maximum allowed bandwidth and 19 other uploaders at 0KB/sec. The same is likely true for windows and mac osx since everybody uses the NetBSD tcp stack anyways.

Whether this is a real problem in the network is debatable because everything works fine when bandwidth throttling is not enabled or is enabled but the limit of simultaneous uploads is small (<5). Vast majority of the users out there will not have that enabled, and the few that do will most likely also limit the number of simultaneous uploads.
