mount iso bin/cue ccd/img nrg with konqueror
you can use the mountiso kde service menu in konqueror to mount iso, bin/cue, img/cue and nrg images, convert nrg, bin, ccd to iso images, create iso or udf images, and there are also utilities to identify an iso type and calculate md5 checksums. konqueror is the default file manager for kde, but gnome and xfce users can use konqueror as well. it would not be difficult to re-write the mountiso kde service menu as a nautilus-script.

./install.shthe install script will tell you which components you already have installed, and then offer you some options.
select:
2 - install mount-iso using kdesu
the install script will create some service menu files.
open konqueror and right-click an image to mount it. right-click the image again to unmount it.
note: installation option 1 - install mount-iso using sudo doesn't work, because ubuntu deals with kdesu and sudo differently than other distributions. the install script needs to be modified in order to use sudo instead of kdesu.
note: mountiso will mount the images to a new folder at ~/desktop.
note: mountiso doesn't warn you if the image file is corrupt. if nothing happens, when you try to mount a file, then something is probably wrong with your image, or the image file uses advanced options that aren't supported by the mountiso package.

i'd like to know how to display 2 different clocks in the kde panel (using 2 different time zones). i tried to add a new clock doing "add applet to panel" but when i try to change the time zone for one clock, it also changes the other clock.
can you help me ?
thanks

i ran into this problem using linuxmint today. suddenly i started getting error reports and it always said sth like "problem is back-traced to /us/bin/gnome-panel".
it started during normal work and then came ack every time i restarted.
i tried recovery modes and everything and tried installing linuxmint again, but the cd was broken and then i installed ubuntu edgy again (i have been using edgy for months and only for about a week i had been using linuxmint, which was better for some reasons).
but to my very unpleasant surprise i got the very same error messages after the boot of this freshly-installed edgy, and it crashed the same way, i.e there are no more panels and menus anymore, so nothing can be done.
what is this, does anybody know?
i am just adding now that this problem does not go away. i have now made a fresh install of linuxmint. gnome-panel crashes and nothing can be done in gnome. i was able to install kubuntu-desktop, so the computer is at least usable now, but i don't like kde particularly.
i did uninstall gnome-panel and then the entire ubuntu-desktop and installed ubuntu-desktop again, but the same crash occurred. i have had my /home partition in place all this time. can the problem be there? what should i look for?
