I agree, I don't see any real problem with the current system. Most "normal users" don't even look at the location bar, so I don't even see why it's an issue. > (I'm using Kubuntu Edgy that's why I have /media/MyUSB not media:/MyUSB and > I think that is a really great addition to KDE even tho I usually don't > like distro specific modifications to KDE) I didn't realise this was Kubuntu-specific. It should definately be part of KDE, it integrates so much better than media:/ -- David Roberts :) http://kavenc.sf.net/ _______________________________________________ kde-usability mailing list kde-usability@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-usability
