Comment 16 for bug 879456

I can confirm the backspace problem. Besides that if you type the name of a folder and then press enter when the correct folder is selected, then the typeahead text-field does not disappear and its contents are not being cleared. So for example if I want to navigate to /usr/share (from /) then I normally do:
- type "us" so that "usr" gets selected
- press enter
- type "sh" so that "share" gets selected
- press enter

What now happens:
- I type "us" so that "usr" gets selected
- I press enter
- I'm in /usr/ but the type ahead text-field is still there and still contains "us"

The funny thing is that I cannot clear the text-field using backspace since that brings me to the parent directory.

I'm using a 32 bit version of Ubuntu and did not upgrade but a fresh installation. However my home directory has been used in Ubuntu 10.10.
