Only µtorrent 3.0 doesn't have this problem atm. I guess some latest update(s) brought this issue back since µtorrent 3.0 hasn't been updated in over a month.

I have it running while I type this in Ubuntu 10.10 32 bit.
(I did uncheck the "Install uTorrent to..." box and clicked next)

2.2.0 does work, but is terribly slow in UI respons and takes a lot of CPU.
Version 2.2.1 Beta responds a lot better and should strongly be considered instead of 2.2.0

It would not start before. I wonder if the updates or something that was needed was installed.
The latest beta does not have this issue though and it works great for me.

Setting it to false makes it behave like 2.2: High CPU usage, eventually freezing the app after a few minutes.

Does the stable utorrent 2.2 have that setting?
Thanks for finding that one Krombholz.

It fixed some UI flickering and other performance problems for wine users in the past.
2.2.1 Beta 23274 just added another workaround. Changelog is here: forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=88772
