Hello.

I started using aMule again over the weekend, and noticed it freezes and hogs CPU for a bit and then crashes after a while (an hour or more I think). Here is what I saw when I ran amule from KDE v3.5.10's Terminal:

$ amule -v
aMule 2.2.1 using wxGTK2 v2.8.7 (OS: Linux)

$ amule

I never had these problems before. Any ideas what's going on?

Thank you in advance.

2.2.3 is out. Let's start with updating.

Also wxWidgets 2.8.9

2.2.3 is out. Let's start with updating.

Is there a Debian package of the newer version? I got aMule from apt-get:

Description: client for the eD2k and Kad networks, like eMule
 aMule is a peer-to-peer file sharing application, designed to connect
 to the eDonkey and Kad networks. It has a wide range of features,
 including many of the original eMule client, like:
 .
  * online signature, source exchange, compressed transfers, secure
    identification, and IP filter support
  * boolean search, which can be local, global, or in the Kad network
  * checks against aggressive clients
  * slot allocation, to decide the number of remote clients
  * systray works well both in GNOME and KDE
  * translations to many languages
 .
 A daemonized version of the application that does not need a graphic
 environment to run is available in the amule-daemon package, and
 various utilities of interest can be found in the amule-utils and
 amule-utils-gui packages, including the ed2k link handler.

Thanks. I wonder if it is safe to use these experimental ones.

[Stu Redman]

Sure safer than using aMule 2.2.1.

OK, I upgraded them:

(Reading database ... 156312 files and directories currently installed.)

However, I am not at the computer to run and test it due to lack of X display. I only upgraded the packages via a SSH connection.

Hmm, I have had two of the same incidents this weekend (almost two days). I am using v2.2.3.

Third crash with the same error:
WARNING! Client UDP-Socket discarded packet due to errors (2) while sending.

I get that error message when my wireless link goes down but aMule never crashes. When the link becomes ready it gets some CPU and reconnect to clients (ED2K disabled by config).
