You can tweak the the "PreferredMethod" in "[DirWatch]" section in default application configuration file ($KDEHOME/share/apps/config/APPNAMErc). Yes, this could and should be tweaked per application. Possible values: Fam Stat QFSWatch (previous value, effectively same as "Stat") INotify (current default) Note that then you'll get constant CPU and disk eating. Which is especially noticeable for laptop users.
