I am new to Linux
Running Mandi KDE 4.1

Installed Limewire From Shell then had to download a Java 1.0.6+

Re-ran ./runLime.sh

After installing the proper Java urpmi java-1.6.0-sun

I tried again .
Limewire Loads Splash screen then exits..


I found an free RPM installer

http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/se...submit=Search+..

but that seems to fail as well, wont launch completely from start menu.

I access the installed RPM From X's start menu it asked me to set up a shared folder , I succesfully set up a shared folder ( I think) gui started & then shut down again.

I have Ktorrent on my system but i want a reliable Gnutella client. Limewires interface was nice and always yielded Excellent results when I used it in Windows.

Does any one know what i can do to get Limewire to succesful launch passed the spash screen. I would like a Gui launch , instyalling from shell was unsuccesful 3 attempts.

Any alternates to Limewire or should I stick with Limewire if so Help with what i need to do or run to complete the process.
