Hi there.

Torrent files use a client, what happens when you double click on the torrent fille to launch it? If you have already downloaded the files then to seed you only need to leave the torrent client open, and it will seed the file for you.

Post back if you are using gnome or kde and i can give futher instructions

hope this helps
