Currently there's a rather unfortunate problem in KDE 4.3.x where Dolphin, 
file dialogs etc. don't "automagically" pick up changes (new files, deleted 
files etc.) done by other apps - apparently cuz of changes to inotify stuff in 
recent kernels.

This means you very often have to manually hit F5 or refresh in other manual
ways.

I think this is fixed here:
http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1065898
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207361

I wonder if this fix could be reviewed for possible backporting to the 4.3.4 
packages. 

I guess SLE11SP1 will have a recent kernel too - and thus the problem will 
exist there too.

Reproducible: Always
