Though I can work through the Terminal (coming from Windows)... a GUI would be more useful honestly... with a few buttons (extract,add to archive, etc.) and a nice icon...

What happen to unrar in the application manager. i had it downloaded on my previous n900 but had to send it back to nokia for a replacement because the usb port broke. Well anyways I got it back now and pretty much installed most of my apps, but i cant seem to find the unrar app. I have all the repo's activated and didnt find it. I even tried using X terminal but i get an error message stating that E: could get lock/var/lib/dpkg/lock. And another error message stating E: unable to lock the administrator directory is another process using it. Even tried using the command jishin posted but still recieve the unable to lock administration message.
Someone pls help.

I was wondering, if there is a way, using these programs /7zip/unrar etc to extract a rar combination with different parts. The goal is to extract a movie, avi. It is compressed in 10 parts of rar files.. is it possible to extract example: ddf.part1.rar ddf.part2.rar they all contain small parts of the big movie.. if you know what i mean..
