The option "Open links in new tab instead of in new window" refers to links inside Konqueror only.
So you did not "configure Konqueror to open links ___from other applications___ in the same opened window in a new tab." I cannot confirm that this has been the case with Dapper either. >From which application are you opening the link? It's probably an application setting then maybe and/or you've configured something else differently on your Dapper install. -- Links outside Konqueror open a new instance and not a new tab https://launchpad.net/bugs/66605 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
