Split screen in Konqueror file manager? SOLVED!
« on: December 18, 2012, 12:26:48 AM »
Is it possible to split the screen in Konqueror like in Dolphin?  If so, how? There is no top line with Split, and Help, and all those things.
I'd like to be able to use Konq to copy some files which require SU permission.
Either that, or, is there a way to bring up Dolphin in su mode? (As usual, there is no help under the "Help" command.)
Thanx for the assistance--doug

Of what use be there for joy, if not for the sharing thereof?

For such tasks I use my secret weapon: Krusader!  ;)

+1, do an alt+shift+k and enter your root password, and your good to go.

Thank you, all. Several solutions, all good. (Perhaps Krusader is overkill! I just looked at it--it's new to me.)
I'll mark SOLVED.
