Comment 10 for bug 186172

After the step-by-step howto, there should be enough information to reproduce this and, IMO, not to be marked as incomplete. Anyways, here is the output when I reproduced the problem on another computer, this time using Xterm under Gnome:

All i did in Konsole was to type in "cd d", press Tab and then notice that it takes a long time to respond. During the time it takes for konsole to respond again, it's completely unresponsive. I have two directories that starts with "d".
