Description Ashley Sheridan 2009-09-04 12:45:58 UTC
Version:           1.2.1 (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler:           Came straight from the Fedora 11 installation
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

The auto hinting feature which is used for the local file system is missing for the FTP & SFTP connections. Konqueror used to auto-hint based on the history of remote locations you'd connected to previously, but Dolphin doesn't do this.

If I type in ftp:// into the Dolphin location bar, I would expect hinting to begin once I started typing the beginning of the remote URI, but instead, nothing is auto-hinted, and the drop-down arrow on the right of the location bar (just next to the clear location button) only suggests the last local URI I visited.

I have no extra plugins loaded, this is just a base Dolphin install from the Fedora 11 installation (a new installation and not an upgrade if that makes a difference?), and I've not even changed the toolbars from their defaults.

Interesting to note that Konqueror does behave as I'd expect, and auto-hints based on FTP URI's I've typed into Konqueror perviously.
