I know the torrent is a small file, and I did use wget to get it in
the first place.

I do not agree... about what is the important stuff... :-) Yeah, I
could see that, but it makes quite a little difference if KTorrent
rejects the file as corrupt. KTorrent rejects the file, it does not
even try to contack any server. It does not load up on the KTorrent
list.

Just to remind you, that I was able to start the other torrents with
wget and KTorrent. It's just this one file that does not work with
KTorrent. So, if it works with azureus, great! - then the problem is
with KTorrent. Fine. Maybe somebody can post a bug report or
something.

Yeah, KTorrent didn't come from SuSE. Guru or Packman. Actually no
torrent client comes with SuSE 9.3. Hopefully some clients come with
10.0... if I can get it installed with TFTP+PXE - no luck so far. :-(
