Even when I enable the hidden files option,  cannot see them. I close the file manager and reopen the folder again, no luck. The only way I see the files is move the files to another folder through terminal. Then I can see them.

Frequent Dolphin Crashes 3 years 24 weeks ago

I really want to like Dolphin. It seems like it's very versatile as a file manager and would work great once I learn how to take advantage of it.

But I can't, it keeps crashing!

After one of the recent upgrades of my Debian Testing the default file manager in KDE switched from Dolphin to Konqueror for some reason. How can I switch it back?

The concept of the right-click context menu has been around since forever but you don't have to be content with the defaults that come with your software, especially file managers. KDE's Dolphin and Konqueror are no exceptions.

KDE-Services, a program that extends the features of the right mouse click on the Dolphin File Manager for KDE-4 graphical environment and specially designed for OSes based on Red Hat, is now at version 1.7-8.

KDE-Service 1.7-8 can be used to convert several video formats to MPEG-1, MPEG-4, AVI, VCD,8 SVCD, DVD, 3GP, FLV, extract the audio track of several video formats and convert them to MP3, s

At work, I would like to use KDE's dolphin as a file manager. However, our home directories reside on an AFS share [1]. When starting dolphin, it becomes unresponsive for dozens of minutes.

OS 11.2x86_64, KDE 4.3.1 desktop.

The Dolphin file manager crashes on me randomly. It does not seem to be connected to any particular operation, but just "goes away" with no warning & nothing in the system logs. Starting Dolphin in a terminal window gives nothing upon crashing, just the prompt comes back (so far, anyway.)

Dolphin audio CD integration 3 years 23 weeks ago

I went from 11.1 GNOME to 11.2 KDE, and I noticed now that if I load an audio CD and open it in Dolphin, Dolphin does "stuff" with the contents: I see directories for Ogg files, for example.

Now, this looks like a cool feature, but how do I control the ripping process (bit rate, file names, etc.)? I can't find any settings in Dolphin that deals with this?
