Bug Description
I'm on a freshly updated dapper to edgy on amd 64. If you try to use the gtk file chooser you can't access the root file system clicking on the "File System" icon on the left of the dialog.
To reproduce:
1. open Gimp, select "File->Open...", it opens a dialog, you can see on the left the "Places", click on "File System": it shows me only a reduced set of the root directories.
2. Open Firefox, go on your favourite bittorrent downloads site, click on the torrent file download link, it opens a dialog: select "open with", then in the combo select "Other...", it opens a file chooser dialog, you want to browse /usr, but there isn't a /usr directory at all
To post a comment you must log in.
If I select "Show Hidden Files" the files magically appears...
I've found the same behavior in KDE (even Konqueror): even there "Show hidden files" solves the problem.
So this is a bug or a feature?
