Otherwise, you can use various methods via the shell. One that I always
used to use was this:
for FILE in *.mp3
do
FILE=`echo $FILE | sed s/.mp3//g`
mpg123 -s $FILE.mp3 $FILE.raw
sox -r 44100 -w -s -c 2 $FILE.raw $FILE.wav

Yes, there is a version for 10.1
It's called kdeadmin-kpackage, and you can urpmi it or install it from MCC.
