    [SOLVED] Using Dropbox...

    I have searched previously for a way to use Dropbox in KDE and found many very different and sometimes very complicated methods.
    Does anyone know of a relatively simple way to install it? I see in Muon that it lists nautilus-dropbox, but I thought there might be a way to install it in Kubuntu without bringing in the nautilus stuff.

    Does anyone here use Dropbox? That's the only thing left to make my transition to KDE complete.
    After one day using Kubuntu, I am in love!

    Ubuntu One integrates with Dolphin (so I'm told -- I didn't do it myself). They provide 5GB of free storage.

    I have not tried Dropbox, but I see they give you only 2GB free.

      the nautilus-dropbox doesn't pull in much and it just works.

        I've used Dropbox for a couple of years, at least, and have about 4 gb storage because I recommended a couple of friends which allowed me to have extra free storage.
        I tried Ubuntu One, but find Dropbox much easier to use. It comes in really handy for syncing documents and stuff on our four computers at home.

          OK, I'll install it. No voodoo to make it work in KDE? That's great!
          Thanks.

            Yah, though I'll add the caveat that it doesn't integrate with Dolphin. Never missed it though myself.

                    Do you know of a repo for it, or do you update from kde-apps? Thanks.
