I think you have how to get the download itself going figured out, but I just don't think that anybody is seeding it right now. :( When it comes to torrents, I typically go to thepiratebay.org, and there is a listing of who is seeding (who has the file), and who is leeching (who is getting the file), and that way you can select which file to download.
I hate torrents, I'm impatient, but you're on the right track in any case. :)
Click the "Download this torrent" (or similar) link on the web site.
It should automatically ask what program you want to use to get the torrent or just launch that program, in your case that'd be Transmission.
Then you wait. Sometimes 20 minutes. Sometimes a few hours. Sometimes days.
If nobody is seeding, you could very well be waiting F O R E V E R, which appears to be the case in this situation. You're probably better off looking at other sites to see if someone is seeding it somewhere else.

It's really annoying when something is downloading quickly and then all of the sudden the seeds go away when you're at, like, 98% complete.
