when I start qbittorrent minimized, I cant open the interface when pressing on show.
I have to edit the config file and start qbittorrent as usual not minimized then I can minimized it and open the interface normally.

I second that.I have Trust Tahr 14.04. Clicking on "SHOW" does not open the front-end. Clicking on "Add Torrent Link" or "Set Global ... Limits" opens their modal window prompts. Qt broken? I don't see any dependencies that is broken or required in Synaptic.

So I pulled 3.3 beta source from git repo, compiled and installed. Same as above - no frontend. Qt 4 and 5 libraries are installed per Synaptic. I had no problem with ./configure or make.

Try building the qt5 version of git master ./configure --with-qt5 and be sure to have installed the qtbase5-dev package.

Thank you. I re-cloned your Git repo today and recompiled with ./configure --with-qt5. I had to remove the existing qt4-make and other qt4 stuff since it was interfering with the build & linking (make was referencing qt4 until I removed it with Synaptic).

Anyhoo, looks like 3.3 will be awesome with more integrated user interface than before. One request from me is to integrate the same VPN.ht that Popcorn Time uses internally to anonymize torrent traffic.

Thanks for the great work!
