[kde-linux] Ktorrent and machine re-start

[alan c]

I am just starting to use torrent sharing (Ktorrent) and can see that 
torrents on a tracker can be individually stopped and restarted et.
However, I would like to leave the torrent open for a long time, even 
after the file is downloaded (seeding?).

If I reboot a machine, will the previous torrents *still* be exising 
in ktorrent? (after having 'stopped' each torrent - or - not stopping 
it  etc etc).

Can I exit ktorrent. and restart ktoerrent at a later time, with the 
torrents still configured  and ready to go?

(Is there a way of identifying which [.torrent] file and/or which 
tracker machine is being used on any particular running torrent, from 
within ktorrent or some other method?)

I have used a machine (an old one) which it seems is subject to power 
management of some sort (bios maybe??) and after a time, it wakes up 
following a mouse activity but ktorrent is neither shown in the 
systerm tray nor the taskbar -- implying (?) ktorrent had ceased. I 
then re start ktorrent and the several torrents are still visible and 
apparently (pick up where they left off ?)  continue.

To examine this I will at least need to look at bios settings at a 
reboot. There are no power settings on the OS which would do such a 
thing (suse 10). I have another (more recent) machine (suse 10) and it 
is continious, no apparent ktorrent exits.

any comments appreciated.
