» Ubuntu 8.10 “Intrepid Ibex” Released

UPDATED: added Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Ubuntu Studio links!!

Well its official.  Ubuntu 8.10 “Intrepid Ibex” has been officially released.  Everyone get your torrents ready and seed! seed! seed!

In an attempt to try and relieve some of the load I’ve made the .torrents, .jigdo, metalink and MD5SUM files available on my server.  If you’re unable to access the main site(s) you can find the torrents for your preferred flavor below:

Ubuntu
Kubuntu
Xubuntu
Ubuntu Studio
Mythbuntu

The upgrade series of posts that published over the last week have been updated to represent a final release (vs a devel-release), and should all work properly.  If you have any problems with upgrading try using the ubuntu tutorials forums and we’ll see if we can help you out.

Enjoy!

» SHTorrent - Schedule torrent downloads with a shell script

If you would like to parse torrent RSS feeds on a schedule and don’t want to bog your server down with Azureus, I wrote a basic shell script that you can drop into your cron jobs and have it do all the work for you.

You can download the latest release here or check out the latest code with svn co http://devtoo.net/svn/shtorrent

and then all you have to do is copy shtorrent-cron into cron jobs and you’re set!

You can submit bugs or feature requests at http://devtoo.net/projects/shtorrent/

The original concept was taken from BashT
