Didn't want to go there before I had a chance to really test it out. Have only tried torrents that have ratio limits to see if they accepted the client.

Was kinda hoping that someone here might know and would prove me wrong

hehe Hobo!
And I'm now playing with Linux--Aaaargh

That's excellent!

edit: Didn't my link in the 1st post work

So that does confirm OSX users with Panther or earlier are totally out of luck.

Sorry I didn't realise you'd replied to it. So I presume you've upgraded to Tiger? I thought you said something about Tiger refused to install on your machine.

What is the release date for Limewire 4.13?

AFAIK same day as I created this thread.

No the final version of 4.13, not the beta.

-*-|IRON|MAN|-*-, The release version will be a while yet, and will have a different number. As you can see from the changelog, there's a ton of stuff to test before a general release goes out. Also, there is another very important development waiting to be tested too (the mojito DHT).

So, I'd be surprised to see a general update much before Christmas.

@ Hobo and LOTR: sorry I missed your posts--no notifications received

well, I'm trying to track down an upload problem (90% of gnutella uploads are beng interrupted; torrent uploads are going through fine).

If anyone knows about configuring firewalls with Mandrake 2007, I'm listening

Nice thing about the linux box is that it runs LW 24/7 as an UP with no VMem problem so far: I just need to figure out why the uploads are getting interrupted even though incoming is just fine.

And Hobo--if you want the fun and frustration of testing, you could probably boot your G3 with some Linux distro and use the new java if Apple doesn't bother with supporting the newer java on the older machines.

I've found out the hard way with beta products (and I'm not just talking LW, I'm talking anything in general) that they don't always work the way you'd like, so I'm gonna wait until the finished product is released. I'd rather not get involved in the LW beta and then discover to my surprise and disgust that I have to get rid of it due to the possibility of it not working correctly. I'd rather go by the old adage, "It's better to be safe than sorry."
