Description Juan C. Tello 2008-11-04 01:22:45 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27-7-generic

When opening a folder from a "Folder View" Widget of the Desktop (in the desktop) the terminal on the dolphin window that pops up doesn't have the correct path (if the path is /home/user/Desktop/folder it tries to go to /folder)

A workaround I found was to make the settings of the "Folder View" Widget so that instead of using the option "show the desktop folder" it uses the "show a custom folder" which is "/Home/User/Desktop/"

folderview shows desktop:/ which is a virtual folder that dolphin doesn't know about. 

F4 turns out to be where the terminal option is, I had to hunt for that.

Otherwise, confirmed.

Dolphin understands desktop://, but the terminal does not understand it... As opening a file from the folderview widget is probably a standard use case, I'll add a fix for this in Dolphin.
