After clicking the 'OK' button, Quantum GIS continues to load normally. However, if I then try to add a vector layer, the 'Files of type' combo-box in the OGR Vector Layer dialog box has no entries other than 'All Files (*)' (see ogr.png). Moreover, if I try to open a *.shp file, I receive an error informing me that *.shp is not a valid or recognized data source (see unrecognized.png). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): qgis-0.8.1-10.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open Quantum GIS 2.Click the 'Add a Vector Layer' toolbar button 3.Select a *.shp file Actual Results: An error message was displayed (see attached file unrecognized.png). Expected Results: The shapefile is added as a new vector layer. Additional info:

Updated to qgis-0.8.1-11.fc6 but still receiving same error message and still unable to open a shapefile. Tried removing QGIS package plus all QGIS config files from my home directory and installing package again, but to no effect.
