    BitComet is for Windows only. There are no versions avalaible for Linux or any other OS for that matter.

    You can use any other BitTorrent Client :
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compari...rrent_software

    Popular ones in Linux are Azureus, BitTorrent (mainline) and BitTornado.

    Can't you give it the DVD it's asking for?

    There's probably some applications on there that need to be installed in order to satisfy bittorrents dependencies. Let it use the DVD to install these, and you should be good to go.

    It probably means the suse 10.1 dvd.

    The reason is that the rpm you've downloaded will only work if you have certain other programs installed. Yast2 is smart enough to figure this out, and is asking you to put in the suse 10.1 dvd in order to install those dependencies.

    Try this, and let us know how it goes. Good luck!
