Dolphin hard drive information

Thu Mar 31, 2011 5:08 pm
Hi!

I'm completely new to KDE and am exploring the desktop. One feature I can't find, and which didn't return any useful results after a search on the web, is whether or not Dolphin can show any info about hard drives?

I see that there is a bar indicating how full each connected drive is, but I would like to know the amount in numbers - both the total size and what's left of it.

Is this something I can find in Dolphin or do I have to look somewhere else?

in my system the bar shows the numerical value of space remaining though not total, you are welcome to suggest this in the BrainStorm forum viewforum.php?f=83

more detailed drive info can be viewed outside dolphin with a monitor widget ex http://kde-look.org/content/preview.php ... 8french%29

Hmm... Maybe we're talking about two different bars? Here is a screen shot of the one I'm thinking of:

talking 2 diff bars - this shows at bottom of dolphin window,

settings -> configure dolphin -> general -> status bar -> show space information

Perfect! I was hoping there would be an unticked check box hanging around somewhere.

Thanks a ton!
