Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y "Some bad blood between Linus Torvalds and GNOME developers is flaring up again. Previously, Torvalds has said that Linux users should switch to KDE instead of GNOME because of the GNOME team's 'users are idiots' mentality. Now he has 'put his money where his mouth is' by submitting patches to GNOME in order to have it behave as he likes. This week, on the Linux Foundation's (formerly OSDL) Desktop Architects mailing list, the two sides are going mano a mano." Can I interest you in a pair of these and these?

Okay, but I still don't understand why KDE has it's own implementation of the Open File dialogue, since Gnome is using the GTK+ Open File dialogue - which is the same on all platforms, incl. Windows.

You can see the 2.16 version here -> http://i19.tinypic.com/352k6lf.png

Perhaps you can tell the difference between 2.14 and 2.16. I cannot remember exactly how the behaviour was.
