I was writing the following before I got to read your post, which sounds similar. My problem concerns local files. But I am adding this to your thread. There seems to be something wrong with Konqueror 2.1's popup url completion. This is one of the options on the context menu (submenu Completion) that appears when you right click on the text entry field in the Location Toolbar. Other options are automatic, semi-automatic, none and manual. Under popup completion if I tab at a url, a list of possible files, folders or webpages pops up. I can then continuing tabbing until i reach the item I want. This is quite similar to bash's own name completion feature. Let's say I want to go to the folder "/home/penguin/infobank/http". Beginning at the folder "/home/penguin/", I press "i" and a list that includes "/home/penguin/infobank/" pops up. I tab to select "/home/penguin/infobank/". I further type "h" and soon I get "/home/penguin/infobank/http". I press enter and I'm finally taken to the folder http.That's the predictable part. However when I delete back the "http" and press enter, instead of taking me to the parent directory "home/penguin/infobank/", konqueror dumps me back in "/home/penguin/infobank/http." In fact, I can't access any other subfolder of penguin without pressing the X button in the toolbar (thereby starting afresh). This was not the way konqueror behaved in beta 2. Is this a bug or is it just my machine?
