The file picker is actually a gtk2 component. Moving bug.
But the file chooser is getting its information from the gnome-vfs backend. Moving bug.
Hi Mike, Are you still seeing the problem, today? Does this happen in things like gedit, too? or just Mozilla/Seamonkey/Firefox? what is the output of gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend If you do gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend --type string gtk+ does the problem go away?
The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the issue if it is still present. Since there haven't been any updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in our current OS release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to CANTFIX, however if you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora Core release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem, please feel free to provide the information requested above, and reopen the report. Thank you in advance. (this message is mass message)
