Description German I. Ramirez-Espinoza 2011-05-05 12:24:41 UTC
Version:           1.6.1 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

Let's say I have a browser, a terminal and dolphin open in /home/user/.

If I create a new directory with the terminal (/home/user/test1/) and go back to dolphin, the list of directories is not updated (test1/ does not appear on the list only). If I try to "update" the list by going to another directory (/home/user/Desktop) and then come back to /home/user/, the list is not yet updated. The only way to get the correct list of files is to close ALL dolphin windows and open it again.

This problem is the same if I download files into a folder while a dolphin window is open: the list of files is not updated until I close all windows and re-open dolphin.

I am a new user to KDE user and I do not know how to provide more useful information. If some instructions are given, I can do it tough.

Reproducible: Didn't try
