I'm having many problems with the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. 1)No audio on any of the video players. Only audio is coming from Amarok. No websites, no nothing...no audio. 2)The web-cam, Logitech, used to be beautiful, clear, crisp, lovely images, with Ubuntu 8.04-9.04...and now, the settings have gone too dark, and I cannot restore them, like I was able to do with not emesene, It just doesn't work, nor any other web-cam program. 3)Another thing I have noticed, is the new OS uses much more memory and CPU. I am always on 99-100% CPU usage, even while just scrolling down on the browser; making the entire Kubuntu experience very painful. Kubuntu 9.04 was always very fast. I was considering going over to Mac...BUT MAC IS VERY EXPENSIVE. Haven't tried Win7....maybe I'll sin, and do dual-boot with new Win7. Can anybody help me with all my problems with Kubuntu 9.10? or tell me how to revert to 9.04, where everything worked just fine? sonhadorpr [at] gmail [dot] com Thank you. Well..

Thus, if you finished your search and are focusing on the folder/file you want, you need to click one time to make that textfield go away, and then perform your action. It would be enough to just move that textfield on the bottom-left corner of the file list instead than the bottom-right one.
