It's actually not a complaint against Linux. It's a complaint about nautilus running under Gnome 2.6. There used to be a config option to let nautilus know whether you preferred to open files in a new window or in the same window. That option is gone as well as the navigation arrows at the top of the window. (Up, Back, etc). Fortunately, filebrowser still works the way I like but I would prefer a global config. Does anyone know what happened to nautilus? As far as I can tell, the new version is a giant step backwards. -- Donald D.

I am running ulb-gnome 2.8 on 9.1 and, initially, I didn't like this feature either, nor could I find a way of changing it.

Is this what you mean?
