We need an RC1 torrent set up as soon as people can get to it. Thanks.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2014 9:30 pm**

On it, Jerry.

Torrent for RC1 is up and seeding.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2014 11:50 pm**

Downloading now and will seed for next 30 days, then review my ISP usage...

Do I stop seeding the previous versions?
MX-14.13.97.iso
MX-14_13.98_386-xfce.iso

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 1:06 am**

Will get onto it asap. What I meant was I will start seeding asap.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 6:16 am**

Got it, thanks. Seeding, and have put into MX website.

Probably a good idea.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:02 am**

That's what I did. Should the torrent itself be removed?

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:17 am**

From Linuxtracker?...Sure, that's a good idea. Will do.

Jerry, MX-14 Beta 1 is your upload so you need to remove it yourself. Here's the link:
http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page= ... 094149ce9d

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:51 am**

Done (helpful message now: "Bad ID").

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 8:08 am**

Jerry3904 wrote:Done (helpful message now: "Bad ID").

Message from your torrent client? If yes, is it because it's trying to load the old Beta 1 .torrent file and can't find it anymore on Linuxtracker?

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 8:34 am**

No, from Linuxtracker.

Torrent for RC1 is up and seeding.

Good, fast download. Running from it now. Looks like 17 seeders but no leechers. Will seed as long as wife doesn't squawk about it messing with her Roku stuff.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:16 pm**

I see there is now talk of an MX-RC2 in the wind. Do you think we should stop seeding RC1?

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:25 pm**

I would recommend it; also remove the torrent from LinuxTracker.

I will take out the torrent link from the website main page until the RC2 is ready.

Thanks for keeping on top of this!

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:34 pm**

Also: we will want a new torrent set up first thing in the morning so we have it running well before the DW announcement goes out.

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 8:16 pm**

Waiting for new seed, will start when ready...

Attached is my current screenshot...

Will do, Jerry.

Are you going to be able to get a full, middle of the page announcement with this?

I'll seed during the day if the torrent is set up by morning (and I remember to fire up ktorrent before I leave for work).

Posted: **Sun Mar 09, 2014 10:06 pm**

Middle of the page only for Final...grrr

RC2 is up now, torrent will be available from website within an hour, any help appreciated

busy...

Why is there a size difference with my downloaded RC2 [ 689 ] compared with the size stated on the download site [ 722.5 ]? My file was downloaded from the antiX sourceforge server.

It sounds like your file got corrupted or truncated. Here is the size and the md5:

Code: Select all

 md5: 2c3eba4e17b6951753fc74409b5719b2
size: 722468864

I got the xdelta3 patch from here: http://download.tuxfamily.org/antix/Testing/

That directory also has an md5 file which agrees with what I gave above. I've been seeding the torrent which has to verify the md5 sum. IMO SF can be sucky at times. You might have better luck with either bittorrent or using xdelta3.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 4:26 am**

Pretty sure the file is fine. 722 MB = 688 MiB

http://www.convertunits.com/from/MiB/to/megabyte

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 5:59 am**

Seeding M-14-RC2 and will keep Deluge up 24/7 for the next 30 days.

http://www.convertunits.com/from/MiB/to/megabyte

e.g., my torrent client (qbittorrent) shows the file size in MiB=689 while Thunar shows the file size in MB=722.5 MB (722,468,864 bytes)

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 12:11 pm**

I'm seeding, but could seed more if they would use encrypted only in and out on their connections. Looks good on my laptop, the browser keeps shutting down, wired works but no wireless (need more time to setup).. Have not try it on the desktop as I'm seeding someone.

Posted: **Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:42 pm**

The md5sum checks out ok, just couldn't explain the difference.

Posted: **Tue Mar 11, 2014 11:54 am**

Regarding DW announcement:

Jerry3904 wrote:Middle of the page only for Final...grrr

Haven't seen anything there. Has Ladislav been notified?

Posted: **Tue Mar 11, 2014 11:56 am**

Yes, early yesterday morning. About to send again

EDIT: he answered right away and said he has it, but is swamped as usual.

Posted: **Tue Mar 11, 2014 1:23 pm**

That's nice, tried to download again this morning with a no go, used Anti's site. What is wrong? Are they running Windows or something worse?

Posted: **Tue Mar 11, 2014 1:39 pm**

Don't know, but there's now 3 other sites on the homepage.

Are you having trouble with your ISP throttling the non-encrypted traffic?

Posted: **Tue Mar 11, 2014 6:00 pm**

A lot of them throttle any torrent traffic encrypted or not.

Well I'll be, that is the same link that is on the MX web page and my bookmark for the torrent. Thanks for confirming that.

Do you think I will receive a message informing me that the torrent is back up and working?

Too late, downloaded the ISO from Anti's site, burned to a CD, booted and was playing with MX-14 before the torrent was back up.

Posted: **Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:41 am**

Automatically calculated by the Torrent Client.

Posted: **Mon Mar 24, 2014 12:39 pm**

Seeding Final, but it doesn't look like there are any takers at the moment.

Prolly will get a bunch of interest once the DistroWatch article goes up.

Posted: **Mon Mar 24, 2014 2:43 pm**

Seeding as of this moment. Interesting seeing the varied countries which the download has been going.

Posted: **Tue Mar 25, 2014 2:20 am**

I suspect people have been eagerly awaiting the final release judging by the level of activity today. I have seeded nearly 2 thirds of the total amount I seeded for RC2 in a 12 hour period. Having as many as 7 connections at once. Heres to its success

Posted: **Tue Mar 25, 2014 2:41 am**

Torrent coming down now and my (rather ancient) HP laptop standing ready for the install!

Looking forward to it, thanks to all you who have been working on MX!

Posted: **Tue Mar 25, 2014 2:36 pm**

I have been having 5-8 leechers every time I look at Transmission!

Posted: **Tue Mar 25, 2014 2:57 pm**

Yeah, it's been rockin' all day...seems like the DW announce really put things into the stratosphere...

Seeds: 36
Leeches: 6
Total Up: 13.09 GB

Posted: **Wed Mar 26, 2014 3:54 pm**

MX-14-non-PAE torrent

EDIT:

DELETED from Linuxtracker until revised.

Posted: **Wed Mar 26, 2014 4:07 pm**

Nice quick and competent response, again!

Now seeding both, so hope I can still get work done...

Posted: **Wed Mar 26, 2014 4:09 pm**

Seeding both here as well.

Posted: **Wed Mar 26, 2014 5:43 pm**

Now have both seeding.

Posted: **Wed Mar 26, 2014 8:14 pm**

If you are seeding the MX-14-non-pae.iso, please remove it from your bittorrent client.

It has been deleted it from Linuxtracker until a revision is available.

Thanks!!

Posted: **Thu Mar 27, 2014 11:50 am**

Back we go again: the new ISO is up, and we need a torrent when possible.

Thanks.

Posted: **Thu Mar 27, 2014 11:55 am**

Yes it is now ready for download.

Note the md5sum

Posted: **Thu Mar 27, 2014 12:00 pm**
