Deluge
I've recently started using deluge exclusively (love it) on pclinuxos2007, and I'm wondering if theres a way I can control it remotely via ssh?
I dont need much control, all I want to be able to do is be able to log in remotely to start deluge via ssh, and have it carry on downloading my torrents until I kill it. When I try to launch it this way at the moment, I get the following response:
[smashcrab@beast ~]$ deluge

Now im a bit of a noob, but I'm pretty sure thats happening because I don't have an active x-window session for it to draw the interface on. This happens even when I'm logged into the machine locally (so theres a graphical interface available) and then start deluge remotely under the logged in username..
Is there some magic command I can use to force deluge to put its interface on the running x-window session instead of freaking out cos its launched via ssh?
I also realise that there are terminal-based torrent clients, but I'd like to be able to stick with deluge because I already have half-complete torrents in it. It would also be nice to come home, unlock my x-session and have deluge already there..
Hopefully theres a simple solution, thanks in advance for your attention
