How this can be so complicated? :|
I really hate DCGUI-QT and I'm not going to use it anymore...DC++ doesn't work with Wine very well, and I don't want to use VMWare for a single Windows app. I can live without Direct Connect but it would be nice to get a decent client.

And no way in hell, I'm not going to use Windows for getting DC++ working ;)

If I could code C++ better (than a coding "Hello world!" program), I would definately start a project! :D

libsigcx-0.6 depends on:
libsigcx-0.6-2 (>= 0.6.4-3)
libsigc++-1.2-dev (>= 1.2.0)
pkg-config (>= 0.12)

Do you have those?

Edit:
Another guess;
Do you have version 1.2 of libsigc++?

Don't have too many expectations on Indirect Disconnect. It's, as you can see, at Alpha stage. The developer want to see if there is an interest in ID before he resume the development. If you want to help out, contact him at the page I linked to above...

Hey, I got dc++ working through wine without any unhandled exceptions and etc.
Though whenever my filelist is recreated in both dcgui-qt and dc++, my cpu-usage flies away and stays at 100% until I quit dcgui-qt/dc++. Anyone that know anything about this problem?

Cheers.

I think hashing causes that... (TTH, Tiger Tree Hashing)

It creates unique ID on every single file in your share.

Valknut, do I heard hell knockin' on my door? :D

It's the worst pile of crap, ever!

Rather I'm without Direct Connect client at all, than using Valknut AKA DCGUI-QT!

Yeah, I thought that too. But It would be great if there was an solution to my problem?
I have even tried enable "Disable Hash List" (valknut/dcgui-qt), but It seems to have no effect :(

Did you tried to restart Valknut/DCGUI-QT after disabling that option?

Hei, disabeling the hash in dcgui-qt solve this problem with the CPU usage! I had the same problem: go to settings>transfer>folder, and mark the disable hash list. Save, quit, and viola! start again and it works like magic. DCGUI-QT is not so bad after all. and it has a nice interface, good search and multi download. I don't see any wrong with valknut...
:P

Have a nice dc'ing...

I ran dc-gui, but since I never really use DC I do not have much to say about it. However, its UI was not as bad as people say it is.

Thanks! I'll give a try...I don't care about few bugs if it's usable. Hmm, how's that dependencies?

Pwnz3r, when using DCGUI-QT (Valknut) you get totally wrong general view of Direct Connect. DCGUI-QT looks like crap, it is totally useless (missing tons of useful features), all things are back of million tabs...That client is pure evil :evil:

The best Direct Connect client is DC++, sad but true, only for Windows at the moment...

While I do like DC++, I don't see what your problem is with Valknut.

I can get anything I could in DC++, but typically faster with Valknut (multiple source downloading, anyone?)

Works just fine for me...

I have used DC++ almost 3 years and I really miss it. It's not easy to move on another software, y'know? ;)

PLus of course DC++ uses up about 80% of your system resources when downloading files quickly.

Whoa? It doesn't.

What's your definition of "quickly"?

More than 5 MB/s is quick. Which is easily attainable on campus networks. I actually used to transfer files between my server and desktop over DC rather than SMB, NFS or FTP since the DC protocol can actually get a throughput of 12MB/s (ie the actual theoretical maximum) over a 100Mb connection, whereas all the others topped out at 9MB/s.

At this speed DC++ uses an insane amount of resources, whereas DC-GUI et al. only use about 5%.

it needs Ruby, ruby-gnome2 ( > 0.10), rexml and a ruby bz2 library. the bz2 library is in the ruby production archive (RPA) if you have that.

i'll probably get around to making a rubygem of it at some point

Thanks for your reply.

Things are finally going to the better direction, here are some projects:
DC++ for Linux
Asami
Indirect Disconnect

Sounds very promising, hopefully we have a soon fully functional and working DC++ port for Linux! Keep up the good work!
