I'm having trouble with view modes too, but I've narrowed it down, view modes seem to act funny when you're working with a VFAT filesystem. It can't remember a folders view mode even within the SAME SESSION. No matter how many times you click "View">>"View Mode">>"Icons", (and it DOES redraw the screen properly, at first), if you leave that directory and come back to it IMMEDIATELY, the thing has reverted to Detail Mode. It's a pain. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: On a VFAT mounted fs, while using Dolphin to rove around, no matter how many times you click "View">>"View Mode">>"Icons", (and it DOES redraw the screen properly, at first), if you leave that directory and come back to it IMMEDIATELY, the thing has reverted to Detail Mode. Actual Results: See "Steps to Reproduce" Expected Results: See "Steps to Reproduce" OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.32.14-127.fc12.i686.PAE Compiler: gcc 985510 1 jdg 2010-07-02 10:55:09 +0000 The exact same thing seems to happen in Konqueror 4.4.4... 985512 2 peter.penz19 2010-07-02 10:57:34 +0000 @David: Dolphin tries to remember the view properties in the folder for local writable folders (see constructor of http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/apps/dolphin/src/viewproperties.cpp?view=markup). Might it be that with VFAT the following code: if (url.isLocalFile()) { m_filePath = url.toLocalFile(); const QFileInfo info(m_filePath); if (!info.isWritable()) { m_filePath = destinationDir("local") + m_filePath; } } indicates that the folder is local + writeable, but saving with KStandardDirs::makeDir(m_filePath); m_node->writeConfig(); fails? Hmm, I've a kind of deja-vu - didn't we discuss this already once? ;-) 997057 3 anselmolsm 2010-08-01 18:11:31 +0000 Reproduced with KDE SC 4 svn r1157874 (KDE 4.5.62 (KDE 4.6 >=20100729)) 1124667 4 mat69 2011-05-29 00:38:38 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 182177 ***
