I did a blog entry a few months back about how to setup up frostwire (lime wire like p2p app ) under linux distro ubuntu dapper drake. see post here.
Now that wont completely work but its 90%. you should get an error looking like this
runFrost.sh: 44: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "}")
of the work the rest is just a quick edit changing the method the application is invoked. do this by changing
#!/bin/bash cd /usr/lib/frostwire bash runFrost.sh
thanks to artemis of ubuntu forums i was able to get this working quickly without much of a headache.
I’ve started blogging little stuff like this because it saves me alot of time when i wanna redo my system.. the lamp how to definatly saved me the other day. (see post here). for that lamp how to please add in php5-gd totally forgot to do that the last time.

you’ll still seemt o have trouble with this release. i advice you to upgrade to the beta version.. or just completely remove the previous
by doing
sudo dpkg -r frostwire x.x.x (x being version number)
download the beta version deb package from http://frostwire.com
after that install the beta version that is out by doing
sudo dpkg -i forswtire x.x.x.x
