--- Comment #20 from Andreas Hartmetz <ahartmetz@gmail.com> ---
AFAIK KDirWatch on FAM has never worked  well.
We had really bad problems with KDirWatch crashing kded4 in the time before the
4.0 release. Somebody fixed a typo in a preprocessor statement, which made FAM
the default backend, which seems to have been the intention at some point, but
didn't do anything due to the typo.
So we explicitly made inotify the default backend. FAM has not been fixed.
