I can't reproduce this on ubuntu dapper (gtk 2.8.18 ). Typing /u /usr appears, but when typing s /us appears here. > 2.

Pressing return the currently proposed text is accepted, /usr/bin/oocalc2 in your example. > I have made a page with images to explain what I mean: > http://www.halogen-dg.com/alex/file_selection_dialog/GtkFileOpenBadUsabilityHtml I get an error opening this url. > Anyone else finds file open dialog frustating?
